I had no qualms at all buying 3rd party lenses. Money was tight, and there was no such thing as firmware updates. Now, I have decided not to take chances and buy 3rd party. I'm not bashing those that do buy 3rd party, it's just not a chance I want to take. Having said that, if I ever get the itch for an ultra wide, I would definitely look at one of the 3rd party fully manual lenses. Unless Nikon decides to brick the camera if a 3rd party lens is installed, I shouldn't have any problems. Manual focus wouldn't be an issue for me with ultra wide.</blockquote>
