Pros: Build quality, focal range, sharpness, very fast focus, good brightness

Cons: A little too soft to TA especially on the edges

Opinion: I have acquired this lens in order to enlarge (in the true sense of the word) my horizons from the photographic point of view. In this it is a lens with a very good focal range, for nothing limiting in landscape photography. The quality in my opinion is great, the construction more than solid, the focus is fast and quiet, the sharpness very good (except to TA and on the extreme edges). I have chosen this lens compared to its competitors because I think the right compromise between focal range, brightness and value for money, I am very satisfied!

Pros: Angle of view, focus speed, build quality

Cons: Backlight, Chromatic Aberration, Distortion

Opinion: I got to try the Sigma 10-20 for a couple of days in order to carry out interior photographs on Canon APS-C quite dated. I opted for this lens because it wasn't cheap (it's a rental) and allowed to have an angle of view equivalent to 16 mm on APS-C Canon House. Personally, at sight, seemed to convince me in that the build quality seemed decent and indeed the body immediately took on connotations, so to speak, more "professional". After processing the shots, though, I realized that despite having snapped at ISO 100 and apertures over F11 in order to get everything in focus, I found almost always distortions very domineering at 10 mm, but, above all, of virtually incorrigible chromatic aberrations and loss of sharpness. Personally I would buy it if I had a APS-C and I need a lens ultra-wide angle, probably I'm leaning for the priciest Home 10-22 Canon. Rating: 6.5, just above the sufficiency because it allowed me to fulfill the purpose and to take decent shots.

Pros: Virtually everything

Cons: It feels fragile, a little vignetting at 10 mm

Opinion: Taken this morning in exchange for the old variable diaphragm version. The look is more edgy, the construction is solid, a little less the haze than the feeling of fragility. For the rest we are the usual: most positive reviews, then the usually four or five according to which this goal would be cesso or quasi.rnParlimo always of a mid-low goal so not perfect or high pretese.ma I suspect that many reconsider their frustration or technical inability to get certain results. Everything, read these funeral shows, if you look at the galleries, you will find beautiful pictures, some extraordinary and many done just under the conditions that are described as limiting or disastrous, in these so-called reviews. I know this goal well, the old version I have owned for four years and the new one I have used on many occasions over the past two years, until the decision to buy it this morning and I can tell you that it is an amazing and surprising look. For the price range and poured itThere is not much better on the market than this.I mean I'm referring to the Nikon coupled ... maybe it hurts only on other brands, I do not know .... rnI will be owls .... Look ALWAYS the galleries ... there are people who really know how to photograph and many photos that deny the improvised reviewers of the last hour!

Pros: Construction, precise AF, reduced distortion, very small chromatic aberrations, focal length, color rendering.

Cons: TA 10 mm vignette, 82 mm filters.

Opinion: Great goal for my tastes, my needs and my finances. Thank you who advised me. Used on the Nikon d300 and D7100 I do not seem to suffer as the megapixels increase, though with d300 to 12 mpx it was a blade. My copy does not suffer from front / back focus or special distortions / aberrations. Although not tropicalized I used it in non-ideal conditions with strong water vaporization and had no problem. To get a good balance from center to edge just diaphragm af / 8, but already at full opening the yield is good. A 10 mm wide vignette opening somewhat but nothing that can not be corrected in PP. I have so far had no problems with flare and the like, which suggests that the anti-reflection treatment of the optic is good. I was astonished by the distortion, which is exceptionally well corrected even at 10 mm and, despite being present, corrects very simply in PP, at the pact to shoot snap. For my desires 10mm on apsc are very useful, actually in this optic I was looking for oneSurrogate Canon 20-35 I had on FF at film time and I think I found it, gaining some degree of field angle on shorter focal lengths. Finally on d7100 with the possibility of additional 1.3 x crop in practice it's like having a 20-40 equivalent. To sum up, I would say that this is an honest and consistent lens sold at a reasonable price and lower than the original nikon 10-24 or 12-24.

Pros: Resistance to flare, construction, accessories, constant aperture at all focal lengths

Cons: Distortion at 10mm diameter filter (82mm)

Opinion: 9. For APS-C in my opinion is the best wide angle in circulation, the one with the highest value for the price is 10-18 Canon but is behind the door of the low-end limits (plasticky construction, variable aperture, this flare , lens hood separately), so I feel I recommend their purchase without thinking much.

Pros: Focal Range ideal for landscapes and architecture. Solid and well built. Distortion contained.

Cons: Diameter filters, sharpness at the edges to 10mm TA

Opinion: And 'the main objective of my kit and use it with satisfaction for some time for photos of landscapes, interiors, street and architecture. Excellent color rendering. The build quality is definitely high level as demonstrated by the fact that, cadutomi accidentally in water (sweet), continues to function perfectly without any problems for many years. very favorable price / performance ratio. Definitely recommend it.

Pros: Focal Range convenient for some street, compact and small solid, f3.5

Cons: Diameter 82mm filters, not very sharp, ta either 10mm or 20mm, hard to use at night, marked distortion at 20mm not to mention the distortion at 10mm

Opinion: It was my first wide angle, has a long way disappointed his lack of sharpness, especially in dark scenes ... The nice that (like all wide-angle), the scene must be drafted and the angle and the light go well dosed for the appreciable compositions ! The problem that this objective is the size of the filters, too big and expensive, so even for a filter you have to shell out na beautiful figures (also 70 euro for 1 only of average quality filter)

Pros: Cheap, easily applicable filters

Cons: Too flare and dim diaphragm

Opinion: I started with this goal for landscapes but I brought home a few interesting results. It is not cheap but an excellent lens and of course the differences are seen ... Pe ril price it offers are then passed to Samyang 14mm 2.8 and I have been able to achieve very large bright night shots and crisp picture postcard! It is a lens that would estimate whether to take for those who must choose between this and Samyang Samyang would say all my life!

Opinion: 26quot; basic ", the digit to spend can become impegnativa.rnIn combination with the Pentax K-3 is well balanced, while on the K-S2 is rather cumbersome, especially with the indispensable lens hood mounted, however, in both cases gives me great shots . I recommend it without problems.

Cons: nobody

Opinion: I purchased for about one month for me this is a jewel, perhaps the purchased copy of fotocolombo is excellent and I have not encountered any problems detected by other rnnon .... I can only be satisfied and recommend it to all of APSC owners. At night it returns a spangle fantastic no chromatic aberration and it is always sharp at all focal lengths from 10 to 22 ....

Pros: Construction, sharpness, resistance to flare, focal range, supplied accessories, fast, quiet autofocus, the focus rings and very smooth zoom, full time manual focus, saturated colors and balanced, constant brightness

Cons: I think no one

Opinion: I have owned and used for about a year and a half's younger brother, who now Sigma has taken away from produzione.rnPur being already excellent wide-angle lens, this lens has many more cards than the more sharper economica.rnSembra version (but I have not done a detailed comparison). I use it mainly for indoor photography with aperture 5.6 to 8, and in this range of openings has no problem whatsoever. At full aperture it is slightly softer but, to realize you have to enlarge the image a lot. The corners lose a sharpness hair ... what other lens does not? RnAvendo a constant maximum aperture throughout the zoom range, does not even require continuous adjustments of timing or sensitivity when using it at full aperture. For some types of photography is manna from cielo.rnLa resistance to flare is proverbial .... not even known by the sun at the corners of fotogramma.rnUtilizzato in any type of photo makes saturated colors and well balanced, it seems almost a polarizzat lensa.rnLa focus with HSM is silent, precise and quite fast, although not fulminea.rnLe the zoom and focus rings are fluid at the right point, giving you the right resistance and always scorrevoli.rnViene stocked with everything serving: petal-type hood, padded carrying bag and, of course, the two coperchi.rnCostruito impeccably for what it currently costs (paid 430 February attack with Pentax), with solid materials that make it pleasant even when handling it. Remains compact and very accettabile.rnAl current price weight, I think it is a lens not to be missed for those who love landscape photographs, interior, street and all use that it can fare.rnCerto being a wide angle rather pushed, unforgiving framing errors ..... worth distortion of converging lines especially at longer focal corte.rnPer the type of lens that you would not say it has flaws ... when you buy you should be aware of its characteristics intrinseche.rn

Pros: Image quality (sharpness, color, contrast) Excellent construction, fluid rings, made fast and quiet autofocusing

Cons: Perhaps the diameter of the filters because expensive

Opinion: I bought 30 March I made a few test shots and I'm excited. The only flaw in 10 focal loses sharpness on the edges and sometimes there is a slight chromatic aberration on the right edge. (All this at a magnification of 100% printable enlargements you notice only a slight loss of sharpness at the edges) A ??focal 11 the sharpness becomes good even at the edges. I believe that the diameter of the filters is justified by the brightness of 3.5 at all focal so large diameter lens. I use it on a Sony a77II and Sony A390.

Pros: Excellent sharpness, good construction, color rendering, good luinosità, ability to mount filters, price, nonexistent flare, lens hood, handbag brings supplied lens, 3-year warranty

Cons: AF slightly noisy but nothing so drastic

Opinion: I have read many articles on this lens before buying it, I only ever bought Canon lenses and I was very hesitant to switch brands .... but in the end I decided and I can only be happy! Excellent yield for photo landscapes, unrivaled sharpness, contrary to what was written by some I have not found any excessive loss to the corners of the picture, but ... compared to wide angles much more noble is even better when used in long exposures in Night returns stellature to 14 bits on the lights, something that others do not 10mm. As it regards the distortion in my opinion nothing to report, as each wide-angle distorts if not properly consists shooting. Great advantage for those who triggered mainly landscapes is the ability to mount filters, the diameter "exaggerated" by 82 mm ensures no vignetting. Before choosing this I had a chance to try other 4 similar goals and can compare the same photo taken with different objectives, the only way I was able to see some real differences between a lens and the other and the choiceIt went on the best course. I highly recommend it

Pros: Good construction, excellent sharpness and aperture 3:5 on all the focal lengths.

Cons: Loss of sharpness in the corners showy, perhaps excessive distortion at 10mm diameter filter (82mm).

Opinion: On this 'optical everything has been said in other reviews, but I want to post my impressions anyway positive.rnE' a fantastic object and for those approaching the landscape makes a real difference and you start to do " seriously.

Pros: construction, hood included

Cons: sharp edges, ring focus hard

Opinion: Price a little excessive for the new product. He does its duty and performs well even in backlight. The focus ring is a bit hard, but with the use becomes more manageable. The distortion is felt especially in 10mm, it is resolved in two minutes with automatic corrections in post production, everything is back in place. Weight and size extremely, the goal is very solid and is not made of cheap plastic. Tried with a slight drizzle but there were problems.

Pros: Good construction, good sharpness from f8, light, shooting angle, good resistance to flare brightness

Cons: Filters 82, a bit of distortion at 10mm but correctable in PP

Opinion: Optics bought used and then found a good price, again it costs a bit too much in my opinion. I use it for a month and I am really enjoying it, it's perfect optics for landscaping / street / reportage, has a good sharpness already at f4, but the best in the range f8/f13, it is not as extreme as a 8/16 , and found it just as good compared to canon 10-22 that I had previously tried. I suggest buying, especially if found used.

Pros: Pros: good construction, good quality feel to the eye and confirmed to the touch, the sharpness I find it excellent, it's an f / 3.5 at all focal lengths, so if you need is quite bright, great contrast and saturation, the camera angle is eccezionale.

Cons: Cons: distortion at 10mm is great, but disappears from 11.5 to 12. Filters 82 mm are expensive. on the first use, the ring of focus, creaked a little, defect disappeared in a short time.

Opinion: In my opinion (I'm not an expert) possess it for a year, I am very well, I like the angle, for those who like the wide angle, I highly recommend it, the rewards are certainly miss ... rnnon I've never tried a wide angle nikkor, so I'm not fit for a comparison of the different lenses, but for what I could see it seems to me a large bell 'obbiettivo.rn

Pros: Materials, price, sharpness, excellent color rendition, brightness, ability to mount filters and low noise.

Cons: Weight, 82mm filters, distortion at the corners, the manual focus ring.

Opinion: The sigma 10-20 was the first lens on which I have spent a little more (about 600 euro). For me, I love nature photography, this perspective has been a quantum leap categoria.E 'an objective that satisfaction and I would say that what I do is a very versatile lens, and although it is a little pesantuccia worth take it dietro.I defects in this goal? well, to begin with .. 1) there is a little too much distortion at 10mm! instead vignetting is not so marked, and sometimes it is also nice. 2) the ring nut of the MF is a bit jerky is does not allow a precise focus. 3) Filters! it is true that can be mounted, but, unless you buy them on the internet, those from 82mm are a bit more difficult to find than 77mm mounted on sigma 10-20 f / 4. Three "In" .. but trust me the rest is clean "as a baby's bottom."

Pros: Construction, sharpness, brightness, contrast and saturation in excellent yield, angle of exceptional flare practically non-existent and the ability to mount 82mm filters even if it is one more quality.

Cons: distort excessively 10mm MAF ring for manual hard.

Opinion: the own recently and I am not an expert photographer so much detail to judge this perspective. But for what I could see on the field seems to me a great goal. I've never owned a wide angle at this level and 'he' has crept regret not having bought it before. I think my travel report qual'cosa would have more if my kit there was this great Sigma is a true stimulator of creativity and soothsayers when the shots made is extraordinary. A short'll prove it with my new D7000 and I can not wait.
