I sold my Sigma 10-20 and am waiting impatiently for this lens. They never have any stock for this lens as it's so high in demand.

I miss my 10-20 Sigma though. The difference between the widest 10mm and the Tokina's 11mm is pretty significant.

The tokina's colors are cooler than the Sigma's... from my experience, both are sharp... of course, the deciding factor for me was the f/2.8. Got this lens the first day it was available from B&H. And for those that don't know, this lens is built like a tank.

Another lens to consider the upcoming Tamron 10-24mm... obviously, it has a wider focal range. This should be released within the month.

Being my first UWA, I found that it has a bit of a learning curve. Composing was different cause things just started appearing in the viewfinder. A CP cut down on the flare.
