Here is shot with Rokinon(Samyang) 14mm F2.8

If I were you, will go for Rokinon. If I also need landscape photography, will go for Rokinon 14mm F2.8 and Canon 16-35 F4

Hoe about a 14-24 mm f2.8?

Is there one for Canon?

My point of view is probably slightly different since my background is motion and not stills. Everything being equal, my philosophy is always get the fastest glass you can afford. I don't get or agree with the new viewpoint everyone is taking with slower lenses (and slower lenses with IS) just because cameras can now shoot at crazy-high ISO's and still produce clean results. An f/4 lens shot with a camera than can jack the ISO and still be clean and achieve the proper exposure is not the same as an f/2.8 or f/1.4 or f/1.2 lens. Aperture is for more than just exposure.

I would go with the 16-35 f/4L IS or the 24mm f/1.4L depending on your priority. Or get both

In your case, it sounds like the 16-35 f/4L IS will do great.

Thanks Ruined

Once I have my Lee filters, 16-35 variant and a full frame camera, I'll be a MP-E65 and 70-200 f/2.8 IS mkii away from my dream kit.

Then my kit money becomes travel money and time to start adding to my portfolio
