just to note that some of the uwa are fx lens and some dx. At the uwa of the range of available nikon lens, the less mm there is, is somewhat important for the dx body like the D90 becos of the crop factor of 1.5x. For example. A 12-24 on a dx body will be equivalent to a 18-35 on a fx body.
When choosing between the 10-24 and the 12-24 f4, you have to ask which is more important to you. The extra 2mm less or the constant aperture f4 is more critical to what you are shooting. Just to note, through my limited research the 2mm less means about 10degree more viewing angle at the uwa range.... as for the constant f4... I still haven't figure out why that is important...anyone to enlighten on this?

Other than the 2mm, max aperture, and price differences, the 12-24 is an Internal Focus (IF) lens, while the 10-24 extends physically when zoomed out.
Go for the 10-24 if the purpose to use UWA is to go widest. The Sigma 10-20mm is a decent choice too.
If I plan to use UWA lens for portraits and documentary, which one will be nicer between Nikon 10-24mm and tokina 11-16mm. As I've never used a UWA Lens, I don't know whether Ultra-Wide range like 10-12mm can be used for portraits without a lot of distortions.

Shots like this are harder with a slower lens (hand held, ISO 400 f/2.8 1/13 second):
I think there is only 2 lenses that u need to consider if you are DX user.. Either Nikon 12-24mm or Tokina 11-16mm. Personally I'll vote for the Tokina one.
