Polarizer Polarizing Lens

Circular Polarizer on Ultra Wide Lens?
Hey Everyone,
I know that the use of a CP on an UWA lens will cause banding in the sky, but are they still effective at cutting reflections on water and harsh reflections on leaves, etc? Or should the Circular polarizes be left for not so wide lenses?
I'm thinking of lenses like the sigma 10-20mm or the Canon 10-22mm. VERY wide.
Thanks!
I would say just try some shots with and some without. As long as you're not overdoing the polarization (set the CPL to a milder intensity) the ones with the filter on will probably turn out better.
