I've often wondered what it would be like to have a real 12-24.
Because as you say in use its really a measly 18-35. Though I'd never shot
wider than 21 in my life.
And Sigma came out with one..


Now sigma came out last month with another one wider like the Canon a  10 -
20 mm F4.0 - F5.6 EX DC HSM,
a 15 - 30 mm equiv. on a 1.5 FOV crop camera


Me I'm going to get a 12 or 15 CV for both my LTM and M systems.

And maybe a 10.5 for my Nikon. Go out with that and my 300 ai I've been
getting my best pictures with ever and it cost me 150 bucks last summer.
