I personally like the reviews for the sigma 12-24 and I am saving up to get it.

The sigma 12-24 is supposed to be a pretty good lens. I have read complaints about not being able to use a protective filter on the front lens element. It does not a filter ring. It has a drop in rear filter, and I don't know if you can use a circular polarizer or not.

Tamron/Tokina are scheduled to release some new lenses this month. 12-24mm and a 17-45mm. I'm not sure about price and performance though.

That's what I call wide angle.

"[T]he first fisheye lens designed specifically for digital SLR photography is also the first to achieve a full-frame 180 degree picture angle."

This is cool, too.

"The "Fisheye to Wideangle Transformation" function in the optional Nikon Capture 4 software package transforms diagonal fisheye images shot using the AF DX Fisheye-Nikkor 10.5mm f/2.8G ED to ultra-wideangle photos, (by transforming the type of projection). This is an appealing new feature made possible only with digital photography and with the Nikon Total Imaging System."
