OMG 10-22 Prices !!!

How about the nifty fifty...$120 at amazon. LOL!

Thanks to Sports_Dude I got mine from Canoga Camera for $660 after the big guys raised their price to $700 after the $50 rebate.

Canoga lists it for $675 AR now but out of stock. B&H is also OOS but Adorama has it in stock for $700.

i sold mine for 550 like 2 weeks ago....

seems like alot of lenses are going up... just for the hell of it i looked up how much the sigma 24-70mm are. i dont know if they changed it or something but BH has them for $569 same one i have and i bought mine for like 400 i think brand new or 420 or something like that... but that was a yeah and a half ago

If you are actually looking for a good UWA, the Tokina 12-24 I is only $399 at most places. Very sharp lens if you can give up 2mm of wide angle.

I considered that lens but am fearful of the flaring problems that many people seem to report. On the positivie side, people have also said it is built like a tank and you gotta like the f2.8. But flaring kills it for me.

^^ The comment above makes me chuckle a bit. People get scared of different things you have to face with a lens, but most lenses have their issues at all price points. If a company made a lens that had no problems then people would complain about the price. I learn to deal with issues that I have with my gear and work around it. I don't have the money to be fretting over issues like flare, you just learn how to work around it. There is no "all perfect" lens.

1--22 is still $829.65 Amazon. Was just checking to see if they would do that price-jumping-around-by-the-hour-thing you see every now and then at Amazon.

i got my sigma 10-20mm lense from ace photo here in northern va. i think it was about $429 or so.

IF this price increase is the same for all wide angly lenses, ogmogmgogmgom!@!!!

The Tokina 12-24 is actually an f4. Never heard of flaring being a problem with it

At any rate, you complain about the price, so I find a cheaper one. Now you complain about potential flare. You can't have it all. The 12-24 is a sharp, sharp lens for not much money.

try ephotocraft.com, just finish buying my canon 50D from there. I saw the canon 10-22 for $679.00

Remember when the 5DII was announced? People were dumping their 10-22’s and the prices for used went down to $475 in anticipation of moving to full frame. I too wanted to move to FF but I held onto my 10-22 for 5 more months and sold it for $575. I should have kept if for another 5 months and gotten even more!

I don't see why it would. I think it's short sighted to save a few bucks and buy a lens you will not be happy with. Many people are reporting increased flaring on this site and I am choosing to go with that. I have learned that when you buy cheap, you get cheap. Why should I 'deal with it' when I don't have to by making a smarter choice (IMHO)?

p.s. this is not a flame on others who have decided differntly. You have to keep yourself happy when its all said and done.

That was the same thing with the canon 50D, then when I order it, they shipped it 5 days later.
