[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 314017, member: 8705"] My question is why go to FX? At the time I did it the D7100 did not exist and I wanted something that handled high ISO better. Whilst I now have a D800 I could quite happily get by with my D7100 (better AF the 600/610) and good DX glass. Everyone seems to think its a badge of progression but at the considerable extra cost including the lenses I'm not always convinced. With regards to DX, the Tokina 11-16 is fantastic and we still have one. I suspect what may suit you is a sigma 17-50 2.8 as a good general lens that goes reasonably wide but not ultra wide. My wife just got one of these and it's not that expensive considering it's a 2.8. In my experience an ultra wide spends more time in the bag for most people, although when you need it nothing else will do. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
