For nightscapes the Sigma Art 14 and 28 are good.
The best lenses I have heard of are Voigtlander APO lenses. They are medium expensive - around $1000.

The older Canon 50 1.8 isn't bad and its cheap.

Canon L 24-70 F2.8 is fine.

But really Canon does not have a really good nightscape lens.

Samyang are good if you get a good copy. QC is not their strong point but from what I have read if you stick to their upper models the QC is much better.

I have a Samyang 135 F2 Canon mount and a 21mm F1.8.
The 21mm I had to open up to shift the infinity stop as the lens focus ring did not have enough travel to get to infinity focus. I fixed that but it shows the type of issue you might have.

Greg.
