Thank you for the examples. I did read the review, as well as many others. Although the reviews and tutorials have been invaluable, they didn't address my few remaining questions. Your shots here give me a prime example of what is possible with the 16-35mm, shot wide and corrected, or the 24mm cropped. Which is a fair comparison. I know filling the frame on the 24mm TS-E would result in higher quality, and therefore not fully expose the limits of either technique.

I can see a slight loss in detail in the areas you'd expect from the 22mm shot. Less loss of detail than I expected for a web image. Although that loss would be more pronounced on a large print, it still could be within acceptable limits--a result I didn't expect. You have done an admirable job in correcting the verticals!
