Got my lens yesterday and took a few shots outside the office. I don't have enough experience to judge, but wanted to share. All taken on 5D3, handheld, ISO 100. Nothing done to them in Lightroom, just exported to Flickr.

Here are few views of 1 building for reference. Notice the corners at 16mm f/4. [Edit - I see the shading at 35mm f/4 as well now, but it was less apparent in raw within Lightroom.] I am happy with the first set.
16mm, f/4

Thanks for the test shots Eric.
Bryan has posted his IQ test results.
It is looking like the 16-35 f/4 will be on my short list for my next purchase. Sharp at f/4 from 16-35, excellent at f/5.6-f/11. While Bryan hasn't posted this specific test results yet, based on the Bryan's IQ and Eric's shots, it is looking like vignetting and distortion are minimal.

I am very happy so far. Seems like the vignetting I saw was small and should be easy to correct. Note that I did have a B+W XS-Pro UV filter on the lens when I took the shots. Look forward to reading the review and taking some more shots.

Just in case someone missed it, Bryan posted his review of the EF 16-35 f/4 IS. Sounds like a very impressive lens.
