Hi, I want to add an ultra wide angle lens to my set, this will be my last lens. I specifically want one with wider aperture as it will be mainly for low light conditions such as wide field astro photos. The 2 I am considering are the Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8 and the Samyang 10mm F/2.8
I am a little more tempted by the Tokina, even though it is a bit more expensive, as it does give me a bit more range and it does have auto as well as manual focus, whereas the Samyang is manual only.
I have read mixed reviews about the Tokina and one thing that concerns me is a lot of them say it's a good lens apart from the chromatic aberration and vignetting, I have not found any reviews on the Samyang.
There are probably more expensive options but considering it is not a lens I will use that often I don't really want to spend to much on it.
Has anyone here had any experience with either of these, if so what are your opinions, is the CA and vignetting really that much of an issue?
Cheers.
