I feel the need for a lens in the region of 18-35mm for my DX cameras (Nikon D300 and D500), but critically I want fast - f1.4/1.8 preferably, max f2.8. The options I'm seeing are:
Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 DC HSM zoom
Sigma 24mm f1.4 DG HSM Art prime
SIGMA 20mm F1.4 DG HSM Art prime
Is there another option I've not identified, or if not, any recommendation from the above list? I'm trying to keep the cost reasonable, eg I can't stretch to the Zeiss lenses, and I will look for good second hand examples if I can find them. The task is urban/landscape primarily. Brought about by the frequent dull weather lately, and not wanting to let the ISO creep up too far to compensate. I'm not bothered about something that may be of use if I go FF as I really don't see that happening; APS-C is fine for me for the foreseeable future and after that I'll be a poor pensioner!
Ideas welcome, thanks.
