The Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 AT-X is the best ultrawide zoom available for Nikon DX.

If you don't want such a wide angle lens, then you might also consider a tamron 17-50mm f2.8

The Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 AT-X is the best ultrawide zoom available for Nikon DX.

It is about equally matched with the Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 and Sigma 8-16mm, they each excel in different areas, but I'm not sure any of them can be had for 400 euro....

Tokina 11-16 has proved itself as far as sharpness. The build quality is decent too. I would go with that if you plan on using a bigger aperture for certian shots as well. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...17145&creative=399369&creativeASIN=B0014Z5XMK

thank you very much for your suggestions...do u have any suggestion on full frame lenses for my nikon d300s???

D300s is cropped, not full frame.

For full frame, I recommend AF-D F2.8 20mm prime. I got mine used for about US$300.

If you're going to shoot architecture, than a UWA is virtually useless. Look to the 24mm f2.8 PC.

Yep. Unless you don't mind seriously distorted buildings.
