wondering if keeping the 11-16 tokina for my full frame upgrade is going to be better than having to try to sell the lens and losing some money off of it...hmm...i NEED the ultra wide for club gigs, soooo. hm, any input?

be like it is
is it full frame?

as far as i'm aware, the sigma/tamron/pentax 12-24s were the only ones but with vignetting up to...14mm i think.

seems like the 11-16 is only usable at 16mm

and the 12-24 are only useful over 18mm.

at that point, id get something like a 20-35...16mm on full frame is absolute ridiculousness. your hand on the camera can get in the shot :lawl:

yea its big, but the 14-24 is double the weight and has a hefty price tag. we shall see in the long run what happens to the tokina...

14-24 is expensive cause its worth it. but its big and heavy.

primes son...primes :lawl:

we're having this same conversation on pentaxforums..."why are pentax lenses so expensive?" cause...they've been undercharging for years for what is world-class glass :lawl:
