[QUOTE="dukatum, post: 300370, member: 23829"] GAS....... :) Has been a really interesting thread to read. I have spent the last few days looking over the vast range of wide angles for my D7000, and like what was previously said, the DX sensor is at a disadvantage here. Ideally I wouldn't buy a DX lens because one day my intention is to buy a FX camera, but when this is I don't know and eventually I'll just sell the one DX lens I have I guess. I hadn't considered Tokina before, for some reason I thought they didn't have auto focus so stayed away, but I was wrong. Researching the Tokina 11-16 ([SIZE=1]Comparable DX Focal Length: 16.5 - 24 mm[/SIZE]) that was mentioned near the start, this will be as close to ideal as I can get and in my price range. The f/2.8 is an important factor for me as I plan to take it with me to Nepal, and think it could be good for the small streets with incredible buildings ([SIZE=1]less space for light[/SIZE]), and inside what I imagine might be fairly low light buildings. and then eventually when hiking I hope to make some nice landscapes. Also I like the fact the Tokina has a 77mm Filter which is the same as 24-70 and 70-200 part of the trinity. Would be interested in anyones thoughts if they have done similar destinations and if this lens is a good size for APS-C or maybe need to step up closer to 35mm?

They'll be grey imports but offer their own warranty (basically send it back to manufacture themselves) and are the cheapest I ever found in UK before I moved. All my camera and lenses are from the likes of here or DigitalRev and never had a problem. Infact my D7000 had oil on the sensor and Nikon took it in and repaired it for free for me. [/QUOTE]
