Need help choosing a landscape lens...
Right now my price range is around $900. Checking out 15-85, 17-40 and 10-22. If you guys have any advice or other recommendations it would be greatly appreciated :)

you have a 1.6 crop I assume? the 10-22 or tokina 12-24 are really good on crop cameras, the tokina will be cheaper. I have one and love it, under $500 used
|
Yeah I guess I should have included I have 2 Canon bodies, neither are full frame.
|
I like my new tokina 11-16 a lot and it works on a 1.3X crop as well. I previously owned the 17-40 and it's rock solid. The 15-85 appears to be a decent lens as well from the reports I've read but not L quality build wise like the 17-40 . The 10-22s are great but pricey, really not in the same price range as all the other lens mentioned so far but it certainly has an excellent reputation!

Thanks! I think I am going to rent a couple before I make my decision, but leaning towards the tokina 12-24 or 11-16 and the 10-22.

I also vote for the Tokina 11-16. I have use one extensively the last couple years and love this lens!
Here is a shot with a 11-16. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/rgn/4654113947/" title="Underwater w/ Flower by DM Images, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4006/4654113947_784fb4bdef_b.jpg" width="683" height="1024" alt="Underwater w/ Flower" /></a> |
