Best wide angle lens for the leica tl?

For the Leica TL, my pick is the Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary. It frames like 15-27mm on full frame, and the constant f/2.8 is what sets it apart from the cheaper Laowa 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 Zoom.

If you want a Leica-built option, the Leica Super-Vario-Elmar-TL 11-23mm f/3.5-4.5 ASPH is a wide-angle zoom made for this camera. It's slower, but it's a sensible everyday wide.

For dim scenes, I'd go with the Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary. It's a prime that frames like 24mm and lets in plenty of light.

Not sure how wide you need to go? The Leica TL page lists the crop factor and equivalents for each focal length.
