Tokina AT-X 116 PRO DX-II 11-16mm f/2.8 Lens for Canon

Hi all,

I am thinking of purchasing a Tokina AT-X 116 PRO DX-II 11-16mm f/2.8 Lens for Canon, for widefield Astrophotography as well as other photography projects I am thinking about doing with an Ultra Wide angle lens.

For those that have used them, what do you think of them?, how well do they perform? etc...

I am also looking for a good place, in Australia to buy one from, so if you have any suggestions that would be good. I would also consider second hand, as long as it is in good order.

Is there any other lens on the market that is just as wide that performs just as well under the night sky? I only know of the Canon 10-22mm but that does not go down to f2.8.

I am not sure when I'll be able to get the lens, I am still working on finances, but at a guess it would be around next month.

Any help appreciated..

Thanks
