Hi there.
I've got a Nikon D3000 (with 15-55mmVR, 55-200mmVR, and Sigma 50mm 1.4) and am looking to get a wide angle lens for an upcoming vacation where I should be able to get tons of great landscapes and interesting urban shots.
I've been looking heavily into the Tokina 11-16mm as well as the Tokina 12-24mm to fit my needs and I'm stuck on it now.
I know that the 11-16mm will not AF on the D3000 body, and I was wondering how big of a deal that would be to have to keep it in MF all the time. I was thinking that sometime next summer I'll be able to afford a D90 body (which it will AF on) as my new main and I'll keep the D3000 as a second body.
Here are my main questions:
-Will MF on the 11-16 be a real pain?
-Is the focal range better on the 11-16 or the 12-24?
-The 11-16 is f2.8 and the 12-24 is f4. Should I suck it up and MF with the 11-16 for the speed?
Thanks!
