I'm looking into a wide angle lens for my Sony a330. I bought a sigma macro lens not too long ago and am thrilled with the results. So I was looking into another sigma. The one I'm interested in is the 10-20mm 4-5.6f ex dc. If anyone has that lens and any reviews or another suggestion I'd love to here it!
@danyell48 I purchased the Tokina 11-16mm and subsequently returned. I liked the lens a lot, but couldn't really justifiy the expense (although it's a great bargain for a fast lens). I am probably going to buy the Sig 10-20mm. At roughly $400 it's a very affordable wide angle that offers some decent zoom range. I've read alot on the Sigma which has pretty favorable reviews. The one common theme seems to be quality control. There appears to be a pretty good chance that you will get a poor copy of the lens that doesn't offer very sharp imagery and severe distortion at the edges, BUT the company usually replaces the lens with little hassle because they don't argue their quality control issues.
Danielle, as mentioned by Nod (@viranod), I use it quite often. I love it. Check out my album. I did what I can to specify the ones that have been taken with my Sigma 10-20mm.
@deliriousoul Beautiful photos! I think I'm sold. I was so happy with my macro sigma lens. From the pictures online and your pictures it definitely accomplishes what I want it to.
