[QUOTE="Felisek, post: 357769, member: 23887"] Interesting, most of my Tokina 11-16 pictures are taken at 11 mm, so it depends on how we see the world. This lens is very good, very sharp in the centre, slightly soft in the corners, but all UWA lenses suffer from this and Tokina is still one of the best. I do mostly landscape/architecture photography and I decided to go for Tokina 11-16, Sigma 17-50 and Nikkor 55-200. The first two lenses are top notch quality and cheaper than the Nikkors. The last one costs less than a £100, is very small and light and delivers decent quality. If you want to do mostly landscape and have something for those occasional longer shots, you might consider three (!) lenses. I know, it sort of escalates quickly. It is beyond your budget right now, but I noticed that my budget had to stretch considerable with time. You want just one good lens, but sooner or later you might start thinking about a portrait lens, about a macro lens, about a good telephoto. It never ends... [/QUOTE]
