More Evaluation of a move back to APS-C

My last post, just a few days ago, discussed one of the obstacles to exclusively using crop sensor bodies being the lack of quality ultra wide options. Well, I noticed a local Craigslist ad for an EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens. I have owned one of these in the past when I had two 7D bodies but sold it when I obtained my 5D Mark III body.

This lens is a bit optically inferior to the cheap plastic 10-18mm STM lens but I'm willing to give up some image quality for build quality, full time manual focusing and some gravitas. So, I picked up the used 10-22mm lens for less than what a new 10-18mm STM lens retails for. I tried to do some testing today in mid afternoon and here are some results.
