[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 571312, member: 24285"] Had a chance to try out a few fishy lenses at "The Camera Store" in Calgary. Came out empty handed. The Tokina really under-impressed. The one they had on offer did not have the removable lens hood and I just did not like how it focused (or rather didn't). And at $800 I'd really have to like it. Looked at their Sigma's on offer but none really got me to pry open my wallet - had hoped for a 15mm but they didn't have that one. Nikkors new were all well over $1,000.00 Closest I came to buying was a tempting Nikkor 10mm at $400 for a used one, but alas I found a mark on the lens which spoiled it. a bit of a scuff. My dearly beloved looks very unimpressed - you this was shot on a D610 I could not identify the scuff on the front of the lens and maybe it would be OK - but ... I left it behind.
