Re: Nikon Mount Ultra Wide Angles
I just found a Sigma 17-35 2.8-4 HSM for a good price, does anyone have any experience with the lens? Where would it rate on a scale with say my 19-35 Tamron on one side and the Nikkor 16-35 on the other? If that's not up to par I'm just holding out till some more solid reviews of the 17-35 Tokina come out. -

Honestly the 16-35 f/4 is just about it for corner sharpness, if $1K is the ceiling of your budget. The older 17-35 2.8 is great but still around $1K so you're really just exchanging f/4 and VR for f/2.8... One… -
Re: Nikon Mount Ultra Wide Angles
Same info I've been able to get so guess I'll wait a bit to find out more on it since the difference in price would cover most of a refurb mobile workstation (what can I say I'm frugal ). Well I'm not in a huge rush (my cheap 19-35 Tamron is well that cheap....but stopped down enough on the D700 it still comes out with…
