Default wide angle lens choices

I now have acquired a 50mm 1.4, a 400mm 5.6 and a Tamron 18-270 zoom ... dreaming of the future, I'd like a good landscape lens -- what's your favorite landscape lens? I have the 7D ...

Are you wanting to stay with a Canon lens? I'm not sure what your budget is, but I'm planning on adding the 16-35L to my collection soon! If you have no plans of going FF the 17-55 might be a good option. Of course there are some amazing lenses made by other manufactures as well that are definitely worthy checking out!!

If you don't plan to go Full Frame there's the EF-S 10-22mm. If you do plan on going FF Sigma makes a 10-20mm that I've heard is pretty good. The Tokina 11-16mm. Or the 14mm L.

I don't plan to go full frame since I mostly do wildlife/birds ...
maybe I should ask this in the landscape forum ... not getting a lot of input here ...

For full-frame there's the Sigma 12-24, but the 11-16 is a crop-sensor lens.
