Excellent Wide Angle
"This is a very strong build lens. I love it for it ultra wide angle and hardly uses it above 15mm. The same goes for aperture. It works very well at F4 but I hardly use it below F13. You have to get used to the push/pull MF/AF-switch but since almost all of my shots are done using a tripod in MF it is a minor detail. You have to watch out for flares but the included hood takes care of most. CA can be a problem..." Read Full Review »

"Great image quality but has issues"
"As a landscape photographer I was very anxious to acquire this lens. Everything I read about the sharp images and substantial build of this lens was tempting. The reasonable price tag was what tipped the scales in favor of purchasing it. The optics are very good and I like the way the lens feels and the clutch focus was different but easy to adapt to. Now the problem. I purchased it in June 2006 and by June..." Read Full Review »

"The write-ups were right spot on. It works like advertised. I would recommend a good, solid tripod/ballhead with spirit levels. And if you have it on in a crowded location, be sure to get in close. I test used it for a week on my Nikon D-200, and it will be something I'm sure I won't leave behind on …" Read Full Review »

"From all of the reviews I read, Canon (10-22mm) had a slight edge on image quality with Sigma and Tokina neck and neck for a close second. I chose the Tokina because it was [$] cheaper than the Canon and was reviewed as having better build quality than Sigma. I've gotten great results so far, couple …" Read Full Review »

"I was looking at a ultra wide angle and a zoom. Realized I couldn't afford what Canon offered, I'd have to choose one or the other and that'd would be a tough decision. So I decided to try third party and get both zoom and wide for a fair price.
This wide angle is a great lens for the money.
