As Christmas approaches, I am considering a new lens for myself. For my uses, a super-wide angle lens would be incredibly handy. I am considering a couple options.
Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 HSM which is around 600 dollars
or
Tamron 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 for around 400 dollars
I have had no experience with any lenses aside from Canon, but for the price of these compared to the most similar Canon lens... I just cannot justify it.
I am also open to other brands, Tokina is another that I did see on adorama, which is still in the running. The two I posted are top on my list. I guess I like the pricepoint of the Tamron, but the same max aperture of the Sigma.
Any thoughts? Reviews? Suggestions on which one you might pick and why...
Thanks!
