[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 659869, member: 11881"] You are shooting on a crop sensor camera. That mean that a 14mm would give you a field of view equivalent to 21mm. (focal length x 1.5 is what you are seeing the equivalent of on a full frame) So go wide. Tokina has some that are wider and auto focus for crop sensor Nikons. The Rokinon I used is manual. The challenge with using your 18-55 lens is that its wide open aperture is I believe 3.5. You want wide. The lenses I'm using are 2.8, it may not seem much, but it really helps. Second would be the focal length. 18x1.5 = 27mm. Rokinon (works for both crop and full frame) manual focus [url]https://www.amazon.com/Rokinon-Ultra-Angle-Fixed-Built/dp/B004NNUN02[/url] Tokina 11-16mm - the filters with it are crap, but you want the lens hood. [url]https://www.amazon.com/11-16mm-Accessory-Manufacturer-Accessories-UV-CPL-FLD/dp/B01LWXGYY0/ref=sr_1_8?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1520096690&sr=1-8&keywords=tokina+11-16mm+f+2.8+nikon[/url] There was a new Tokina 12-28mm brought out, but it's an f/4 lens from what I can see. Of course there are other options, but you want WIDE and ideally f/2.8. [/QUOTE]
