I’ve been pulling my hair trying to decide which wide angle lens to get. I really like the Nikkor 16-35 f/4 but $1100 is a lot of money for me. Anybody have any other suggestions? Thanks

The 16-35 isn't that wide on a DX camera anyway. The Tokina 11-16 or 11-20 are where I would be focusing my attention.

I believe nikon has a 10-20 as well.

This.  Unless you're willing to go into the pro price range, the Tokinas are one of the best lenses for the price.  I've heard the Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM is fantastic for the price, but I've never seen one in person to try out.  That and I need faster lenses, so f/2.8 is the slowest I'll go for wide/ultrawide.

Seriously, those are fantastic for the money.  The only reason I sold mine was I upgraded to the 14-24mm f/2.8 lens which is one of the best out there.  Personally I'd eat the extra $100 or so and get the 11-20mm over the 11-16, but both are solid and f/2.8 works great for night shots.

Just ordered the Tokina 11-20. Funny, I had the 11-16 in my cart. Didn’t even see the 11-20. Thanks guys.

I just bought a NIkon 10-20 for my D5200, it will be replacing my Nikon 10-24 where weight is an issue.
