C100: Canon C100 wide angle lens

[cinemascreen]

On the verge of purchasing the C100 and wanted to know how my Tokina 16-28 2.8 lens would fare on it. I have noticed most are using the 11-16 lens.

Depends how wide you need to go.

Get the 11-20 rather than the 11-16 if you go that route. Anything less than 16mm I would generally consider an effect rather than a normal POV.

All I can add is that the 11-16 lens is superb, even wide open. There's a reason pretty much everyone has one!

11-16mm gets used a lot for wide shots for commercials, landscapes, corporate. On many cameras the 16mm side has a field of view equivalent of 24mm. Very useful lens.

+1 on the 11-16mm.

Also the Canon 15-85 is nice and sharp on its wide 15mm at f3.5

I just bought the new Canon 10-18 STM IS for a project, it is great, super light, cheap and sharp. Fairly slow though so not ideal for low light interiors.
