Wide Lense for D60

Twentymac · 9 May 2010 at 18:25

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a wide angled lense for my Nikon D60.

Anything under £200 if possible ?

^assumedly you're referring to the 10-20/4-5.6.

Wide glass is expensive glass, you're probably going to have to relax your budget.

Yep

The rolleyes guy is easy to take the wrong way, I'll assume you don't mean it in an insulting way since the OP might not know whether you meant the Sigma 10-20/4-5.6, the 10-20/3.5, or the 12-24/4.5-5.6.

Or the new 8-16 (or something like that).

I got a used Tokina 12-24 for £200 a couple of years ago, prices have gone up a little but not that much.

The 12-24 is pretty much regarded as the best wide angle lens if you can't afford their 11-16 or the Nikon official glass.

The 11-16 has got fairly expensive, but can't go wrong with the Sigma 10-20 f4-5.6 or the Tokina 12-24 f4, if you can get 'em cheap. Think I paid £220 for mine.

I agree regarding the Sigma 10-20 f4-5.6 as i have just bought a used one in mint condition for £300 to use on my D90.

Here is an example i took.

I really want the Sigma 10-20. Thinking of picking one up in HK if its under £300. Awesome lens.

Yep as in above not meant in a insulting way
