I have a canon 50D and I'm looking to invest in a wide angle lens. I have a budget of around 500.00. I'll mainly use it for landscape photos. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

If you're looking in the $500 range, most of the above mentioned models are pricier than that. The Tamron 10-24 and Tokina 12-24 both come in at under $500 before tax. Personally, I shoot with the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 and although it's a little over your budget ($550) it's worth it IMO. just a great lens.
Are you talking wide or ultra wide?
I consider 17mm to be wide and the 10mm range ultra wide.
I have the Canon 28-135 kit lens, Tamron 75-300 mm, Canon nifty fifty, and the Tamron 28-80 mm.
Thank you everyone for all of the advice and suggestions. I have looked over all of the wide angle lenses and think that I may exchange the one I received for the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II Autofocus Lens. Anyone have any experiences with this lens? Or I am considering the one mentioned above ...10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM Autofocus Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras. Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.

Can I throw one more into the mix...Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM Lens for Canon Digital Cameras. any opinions?

Now... One the thing to remember is that we're all giving you our personal preferences.
Only because it's so much fun to spend other people's money.
I have to agree...I love spending DH's money.
Now I have it narrowed down to the Sigma 17-70mm or the Tamron 17-50mm.
