Best value Ultra Wide Angle for DX
I needed a UWA for my D90, and I was long time undecided between the Sigma 10-20mm and the Nikon 10-24mm (about twice expensive), so I rented both and carefully compared. The pictures from the Sigma 10-20mm ended up same quality or slightly better, a little sharper at the wider focal length, with...
Pros:
- Sharp lens
- fast AF
- compact and well built
Cons:
- Moderate vignetting - not worse than competition

Though this corrected 10-20mm lens from Sigma comes at a relatively cheap price, it doesn't strike you as cheap when you use it. It has a real quality feel, enhanced with the matt finish that's standard with a Sigma EX series lens.

- Price
Cons:
- Softish edges in middle of range
- Slight pincushion at 20mm end

Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM Review
Using such a wide angle-of-view presents a whole host of fresh creative possibilities and since buying this lens, I rarely use any other focal range to shoot landscape images.

Sigma 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC HSM Lens Review
Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM is one of Sigma's professional grade ultra wide zoom lenses. The build quality of Sigma's EX marked lenses rivals that of Canon's L series lenses. This lens falls into this category - it looks and feels sturdy.
