Diane,

I use the 10-22 on my 20D. It is an amazing lens. F5.6
and F8 are best sharpness. At 10mm F8 I have done many
near to far compositions from 15" to infinity that are
tack sharp corner to corner at 13x19. I do landscape
so I am less concerned by distortion but it gets
pretty good marks there, It showed some Chromatic
Aberration but I have not seen any in my use of it.
The 9.5" min focus let's you do anything you want to
with a wide angle. It's fun to be able to make a nose
to nose portrait of the cat and have the entire room
in focus.

Here is a review with some tests:

My only gripe is that the lens hood us still on back
order :-(

Hope this helps.

Guy
