Hey Trevor, so many people are talking about the Samyang/Rokinon/Walimex 12mm. Here's the link to the corresponding topic: http://www.fuji-x-forum.com/topic/169-samyang-12mm-f20-ncs-cs-x-mount/ I also own this lens and I REALLY love it!! You can do great landscape shots with it. Because of its f/2.0 aperture you can also use it in low light situations like concerts or so. And it even has "macro" capabilities cause of the minimum focus distance of about 20 cm. Also you have the space to crop a bit (so you're getting the FOV of a 14mm or even a 16mm). This year I was in Scotland. Beautiful country!! I took a lot of shots (too much) there. Many with the 12mm. But although I love this lens I would recommend the 10-24mm if you need highest versatility when shooting just landscapes with it. In Scotland while I was shooting landscapes I often (or sometimes) switched between my 12mm and the 18-55mm. And sometimes I felt I even need it wider. So I thought of the 10-24mm. MY conclusion: I definitely keep my 12mm. It's small, light weight, fast and IQ is great enough for me. The 10-24mm? Maybe if I go to Scotland (or another scenic country) again or if I become a professional postcard shooter The 16mm? Definitely! Even faster, WR, AF, huge IQ and great for concerts. But a bit too large and heavy. 14mm? Just if I had too much money. I think it's a great allround wide angle prime. Great IQ, more "compact" than 16 & 10-24 and fast enough for mostly everything. I hope I could help (and not confuse) you! Sorry for my (bad) non-mother-tongue-english. And by the way: nice shot up there!!!

Sometimes real life picture samples are worth a thousand words! So I think this is the right place for pics taken with this lens.

On page one of this thread are some indoor shots of mine. The one with the pizza is a good example I think. I was sitting right next to the guy with the phone.
