[QUOTE="Ironwood, post: 162656, member: 10447"] I am another one thats getting ready to buy a wide angle lens. After reading many many reviews and opinions, I had decided it would be the Tokina 11-16 f2.8 II. But having second thoughts and deciding I also want a new macro lens soon as well, I am thinking maybe a 2nd hand wide angle first, then the macro sooner rather than later. There are quite a few of these 12-24's and the older 11-16's coming up, but very few of the newer 11-16's. So your photos have got me thinking Ted. What was it that made you choose this lens ? I am thinking it may be the useable range of 12 out to 24, which makes it a handier walkaround lens than the 11-16. I am just not sure I would use the wide lens for a walkaround so much, thats what I got my 16-85 for, so possibly for me the slightly wider 11 could be better for my wants. Oh, the choices, what to do ? :confused-new: [/QUOTE]
