but sigmalux is famous of their bad quality control right?
I am ready for manual focus on UWA for the timing instead of upgrade to d7k.
I think the lens is worth for investment.  rclxub.gif

get the lens first or body first?

i wouldnt say bad quality control ... if about focus issues the pro bodies wont have a prob as they can manually tune their front or back focus ... as for consumer bodies like us we need to send it back to them for calibration with our body ...

agreed with that statement ... but have to add on that the 12-24 is better at preserving details ...

i am using the tokina 11-16 myself ...

how much does it cost for a calibration bro?
when I calibrated my body will all my other lenses goes off focus?
where is it located?

under warranty is free ... what they do is add digital data of the lens to ur body ... so it wont effect other lenses ... the service centre is in Damansara Perdana ...

just tried out the 16-35 on my D90 ... i am amazed by its sharpness even at f/4 ...

its going to be a hard decision to make between the 17-55 & the 16-35 ...

do you need 2.8 ?
if not, 16-85 all the way wink.gif

i was giving it a try cos it has VR plus its cheaper brand new than the 17-55 ... not forgetting it has Nano coating as well ... the distortion on my D90 is not as bad as on a FX body ... really headache ...

FX lens with Nano coating & VR or DX lens with f/2.8 & longer range ...

Wondered how bad is the distortion of 16-35mm f/4 VRII @16mm compared to 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6 VRII @16mm.

its quite ok on a DX body ...

it has more distortion on a FX body ...

most probably 10/11am depends on my college as well.
well if you saw D3100 + 18-70 most probably that will be me tongue.gif

if you see a D90 with a Tokina 11-16 then it will be me ...
