    I read the actual press release now, and down in the UK section of the release they give some extra details. Most UWA lenses seem to have a MFD of ~11", while the new 10-18, is ~8.5", which should help anyone going for an ultra distorted look.

    Can hardly wait to see some reviews when June rolls around.

    On the EF 16-35 mm f/2.8L II USM the closest distance is 0.28 m. If you want to compare.
    In case you really want to distort, then I recommend the EF 8-15 mm f/4L fisheye USM. The closest range is 0.15 m...
