Decision worked for me

My decision between a 10-20mm Sigma and the Nikon 10.5, was the Sigma...... Working with the Sigma was a joy, as shooting very large structures, and having lots of room, it was easy to keep the distorting down to a minium....... here is one at 10mm.......

No doubt the 10-20 is also much more versatile too, giving you a bit more flexibility. Your image certainly shows how wide the thing goes

Hey Bernie, thanks for the post. I am scheduled to be in NZ for 5 weeks as from next month, and I need to get a super wide angle lens for the trip.
I am pretty confused as to which lens to go for, be it Sigma 10-20, Canon 10-22, Sigma 14mm prime, Sigma 12-24 or Tokina 10-20. I think the Sigma 10-20 is the cheapest of the lot and seems to have a good following on this forum.
Any further comments?

P.S. Drove past your favourite tree at Ulmarra the other day, just north of Grafton. It's still doing well!

if you are ever thinking of getting a full frame camera body the choice would be the Sigma 12-24....... as this lens works well on both the DX crop and full frame.......
10 - 20 is a fine piece of glass, and is great on the dx sensor's, not sure about full frame camera bodys....... maybe someone has this setup
