Talking about sharpness and image quality... what do you recommend ? Tokina or Nikon ???

[QQQQcon]

@shabeebrizvi nikon has the edge there but not by much and tokina is by far better built and feel

[shabeebrizvi]

@QQQQcon Thanks !!! I think i will buy Nikon since i want wide angle lens primarily for landscape but would want to use it for indoor photography as well. hope it would be a better choice !!! what do u say ???

[QQQQcon]

@shabeebrizvi the tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 is the ultimate lens for wide angle indoor photography actually. If you want the longer focal length though the nikon 10-24mm will give sharper images than the 12-24mm tokina at faster f/stops. However the 11-16mm is just as sharp as nikon and is a stop faster.

@QQQQcon Thanks for quick response... here is what i conclude from you:

tokina 11-16mm - ultimate for indoors

tokina 12-24mm - gr8 fro landscape

nikon 10-24mm - combination of two above? [sharp but low build quality] RIGHT ???

@shabeebrizvi for the most part

Awesome reviews! Really down to earth and young so a lot of us can relate to you. You seem to have become pretty successful, at least equipment wise haha. D3 and D3x? Glad to see you have come so far, I remember your days with your d300, you have come a long ways.

I think people would really benefit to hear a little about how you market yourself, as in how you get people to see you work, purchase, and anything else business wise. That is often never covered among photographers.

how can you afford so much equipment? i guess he must make money.

I shot with both and both are excellent. I agree that the tokina is a better build. My only beef was the switching from man to auto on the tokina. Other than that I'd recomend both. If your torn like I was goto your photo store and try them both out and see which fits both your needs and your budget.

Hey Con, this lens, or the tokina 11-16?

[QQQQcon]

@genzhood48 it would be alright, ultra wide angle is not the best portrait lens because of distortion. a 24-70mm lens would be better.

[genzhood48]

hey, quick question. i need a really good wide angle lens for nightlife photography. would you reccomend this lens for group pictures, single portraits and color abbreviations in clubs? i was thinking of getting this lens.
