No, this isn’t an accessory for my G1X but for my 7D. Having passed on both the EOS-M and G15, I felt OK about asking Santa for the Canon 10-22mm zoom.
Above is a scene that I routinely photograph using my latest toy equipment. The 10-22mm was set for the widest angle, 10mm (16mm equivalent on the 7D sensor). Wow! That’s wide!
In comparison, the 15-85mm zoom (my usual lens with the 7D) at 15mm seems more than a bit zoomed-in (above).
At 22mm, the above view is as tight as the 10-22mm will go.
I tried the above odd combination of wide angle and close-up with the front of the lens about 8 inches from the rose.
All shots taken from the in-camera JPEG using the “Faithful” color setting and not cropped but down-rezzed.
I walked around a bit and grabbed more shots while trying to get a feeling for the lens. Of course, care must be taken to avoid severe perspective angles but the lens itself does not appear subject to noticeable distortion. I think I’ll like the 10-22mm zoom.
