Hi
It's me again. Since I'm looking to make the step from point & shoot to a DSLR (unsure yet  ), I'm looking for appropriate lenses for Nikon D60. Which wide-angle lens would be the best for the D60??
Thanks in advance
Owen

Hello Owen,
Here another review of wide angles
http://kenrockwell.com/tech/digital-wide-zooms/com parison.htm
I have a Nikor one and its really great. But it's much more expensive than the D60 itself.
Best regards,
One picture with D300 + Nikor 12-24 f/4

Hi Owen,
I use a Sigma 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC HSM with my D80/D300 and I really like it.
Regards,
Bernhard

I use the Sigma 10-20 with my D70s, too, and I think it's an excellent lens, especially at 10mm. You can ignore most of what Ken Rockwell (see HP's reply) says (he's just anti-Sigma), but what he says about the D40(x) also applies to the D60: only the Nikon and the Sigma lens have a built-in focusing motor, which means that you can use autofocus on a D40/60. The other lenses (including the newer Tokina 11-16mm) have to be focused manually on these cameras.
