Now that I have a 5D, I have also had the need for a wider angle than the 24mm I'm limited to right now. I tried the Canon 17-40 and the Sigma 12-24. The Sigma was definitely in favor. I really like to have that extra ultra wide, without getting into fish eye. However at the time I needed a fast prime, so I went for that. But I did really like the 12mm and I think it would have gotten some very interesting compositions.
I personally think I would really like the 14mm prime [A] And if you look at some other reviews, it has a lot less distortion than the 16-35L. That might be just why you don't shoot a lot on 16mm, and others don't like the 10mm on their zooms[:P]
Anyway good luck with it. And if you were just looking for a fun 14mm, take a look at this one. It will make all your landscapes smile [] But it would make a great lens for ultra wide angle filming [A]
