I used it to shoot from an elevated angle. The result were disappointing.....I paid $[...] but I don't think it is even worth more than $[...] to tell you the truth. The colors are lifeless, "burnt-out". There are no details on the images. You can see the samples on my site: [...] Look for the huge house with the red roof. You will see what I am talking about. Normally, I use the 17-40 L on my elevated system. I thoguht the 20mm would be a good replacement even if it not as good as the 17 40. I think even the 18-55 Canon kit lens produces better images. Add a few hundred bucks and buy a decent lens.

Always happy with Canon Lenses.. I am more a detailed photographer, I purchased this mainly for my husband. He enjoys taking more landscape photography. Overall, very happy!

I was a bit concerned at first with the fixed focal length, but it has proven to be very versatile. It takes very sharp pictures, even when fully opened in low light. I have not noticed any of the vignetting that other users have mentioned. Bottom line: great wide angle lens for the price. Useful for landscapes and tight space, low light situations.
