I'm looking for a wide angle lens for my 300d and having considered various primes but not finding one that would be wide enough and not break the bank I started looking at wide zooms. I can't afford L glass and of the cheaper options the Sigma 10-20mm seems to stand out.

Anyone used one/own one can say yes or no?

Second question, has anyone used onestop-digital yet? I can buy it from warehouse express for £334.99, Jessops want £369.99, I could possibly get them to pricematch but onestop-digital do it for £299.99 all in. I think Jessops would be the best bet for returns etc if I can get them to price match, don't suppose there's much chance they'll match £299 ;)
 
used onestop for my Sigma 70-300 and they were great. Would use again.

Ditto. Can't comment on your choice of lens though I'm afraid.
 
Bargain! :icon_cool
 
You're right about the outer edges when the lens is used at 10mm but that's to be expected, maybe I should invest in the dxo software also, to correct it :)
 
I just found these samples of the Sigma 10-20, Tamrom 11-18 and the Sigma 12-24. From looking at them the Tamron is quite soft and the two Sigma's look basically the same. The edges are soft, even at f/16. But I guess thats just the way it is.

I've also found this too. Some stunning results. I'm really thinking that I'll get this lens.

Full size version, 2.1mb.

Seems like a decent lens. A bit soft on the edges but it seems like most ultra-wide lenses do that.
 
Jammy git :) RL stepped in and said "nooooo! you can't have it yet" to me :(
