[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1248584, member: 59143"] Have to go to work in a bit so real quick: Tamron = Yuuck. Sigma is hit and miss, though I do own a couple which are very good. For wide angle, Sigma and Tokina are best if going third party. Tokina make a nice 11-16mm, and it pairs well tonally with Nikon bodies. I'll post more info later from work. Don't discount buying used. If a lens is in good shape (no fungus or oily aperture blades) then there's no reason not to buy that way. KEH.com is a very good source for used, as is BHphoto.com and adorama.com as well. KEH has a bigger selection of older manual focus lenses, which I'm really into. Doug [/QUOTE]
