evil!!:devil::devil: 11-16 cheaper right? but more restricting in the sense that the longest reach is only 16.

Nope. Sigma 10-20 cheaper.

When you start using the UWA indoors in low light, you will not care about the 16mm restriction... coz the 2.8 gives you so much more options.

what freebie?? a new SD card? like tt my camera might give birth to a SB600. since it's first time being mounted was with ZCA's SB600. haha

Amalak! In that case, you should have mounted your D90 on his Markins and Benro tripod lah! :bsmilie: Shakey situation all solved in one go!

Skylover... see what I mean by my previous statement? Now, don't fight it, take the poison in, breathe deep, let the silver air mingle with your lungs, let it waltz around if you like, and gently breathe out... Your mind would be feeling high with Tokina metalurgy now... :sweatsm:

One more from my Toki.

This is the first real pic I took with the Toki (other than test images)...

Notice the corner sharpness....

 

[daredevil123]

And low light indoors... at 11mm F2.8...

i see. i thought tt it stands for their technology. like Nikon's VR all those. and i just visited their website. They have 9 lenses in total?

 

[daredevil123]

Yup.. only a handful.

BBB 11-16 :devil:

if I had to choose again my UWA, I think I would go for the 11-16. This is my frank opinion after weighing out the price, focal range, image sharpness. I could still make do with a 11-16 and 35/1.8 as my 'light' setup.
Contrary to what many people think, it isn't really necessary to cover every focal length.

hahahah my anti-virus still quite strong.



For those thinking of getting 50/1.8, this was shot wide open

definitely not the best example photo I will readily admit, but perhaps still poisonous nonetheless? :devil:


this is with the 35/1.8

 

[Smiles88]
