Help needed. Recommend a wide angle lens for Canon.
Advertisements [?]

I have the Canon Rebel XTi. Have lens beginning at 28mm and up. But with the 1.6 crop factor (28 * 1.6 = 45mm), my moderately wide angle lens becomes a normal lens. So I need to go wide again, and am looking at lenses that will take me down to around 10-12 mm. Any recommendations? Likely a zoom lens.

I know you won't go wrong with a Canon branded lens, though you will pay for it. Any experience with Sigma? Tamron? Tokina? Anything else I might have missed?
