I like to take pictures of trees. I have a dx camera. This lens gets good reviews. If low light isn't a crucial concern, is there a better alternative for the $. I have a 35 mm, a 55mm and a. 55-200 already.
I've heard nothing but good things about the Tokina 11-16 lens. Another forum I frequent has a "Lens Lust" forum and within that a "Lens Sample Archive" where there are running topics for several different lenses with photo's, and peoples opinions of the lenses.
Here's a link to the Tokina 11-16 for you to peruse over.
I rented one for a few days and it produced some really good images. The only issue i had was the focus lock mechanism. I would accidentally bump it off focus when pulling it out in order to cut the auto focus off.
