Has anyone had any experience with Phoniex Lens? Inparticulary the 19-35mm wide angle? Are they worth buying for a very resonable price or should one wait and save for something better?

I don't have any experience with this lens, but here's a few opinions about it.

JR92,

I have no experience with Phoenix lenses, but as far as I understand, they are made by Cosina.

In this price range, I would (and did!) go for the Tokina 19-35 instead.

No, I ate it and it tasted like crap. I have to wait before I can file fraudulant claims. I though did go and buy and new one and did receive it a week and a half ago.
