Compared to other lenses like sigma and vivitar in class I'd rate the Tokina 12-24 very highly. It's build quality bests the Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 easily, and I believe even tops the Nikon 12-24mm f/4 lens as well. I'd say the only other lens in class with equal build quality and feel is the Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 - however it's usability is more worse than the Tokina, due to it's funky bug-eye front element and use of gelatin filters. the tokina lens is light in weight and gives you the best picture result even you can compare this lens with nikon if you see the price it is half the price of nikon 12-24 dx lens but the quality of picture it gives is almost the same as nikon, I will always recomend this lens over the sigam. |
