sigma 10-20 vs tokina 11-16

Thanks,Dao....I'm pretty much sold on the Sigma 10-20 3.5,but again,"if you get a good copy" keeps haunting me.I guess the return policy will be the deal-breaker...

Glad I came across this thread. I am having the same problem also about choosing an ultra wide angle lens. I am thinking about getting the tokina for the 7D and have heard really good things.

Sigma I did not really thing about though and now that I seem this I am back to researching what one to get.

OP post something on here after you make your decision and purchase a lens so I can see your thoughts.

is the tamron 10-24 not even in the ballpark?...the reason i ask,is,i just rented it for the weekend.this is the second time i've rented this.The only thing I can actually compare it against,hands on,is the nikkor 12-24,which is not in my budget.I keep hearing the same thing about the sigma,decent lens if you get a good copy.Are they that hit or miss?

Seems more and more like I'm gonna try the sigma.
