Luminous Landscape did a test of the Sigma 14mm here:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/lenses/sigma_14mm.shtml

And compared it with a Canon 16-35 zoom here:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/lenses/14-vs-16.shtml

In short, it was found to be very good for the money (about $650.00) but
not as sharp as the Canon and *very* lacking in the corners (no problem
for DSLRs that are less than full-frame).
