All my landcape work has been done with the slower 17-40mm f/4L.

Thanks Humayun,
I can see it is superior glass, but you see what I do out in the field. WILL it give me more light on the 30 second deep sky images that I don't have to STRETCH so much in PP to bring out the Milky Way? At F/4, I am thinking not.
This is the sole purpose of buying a wide fast lens.
My macro is taken care of in the 100mm, while all my other daytime stuff, I still have my 400D. So I don't need this new lens to do anything else.
