Originally posted by cecanima I want to buy a lens that is fun and makes me think more about the shot. The lens should be intended for street/architecture photography. So, I have a budget for just one lens and I am thinking about the Sigma 10-20 or the DA 35 limited. I know it's an individual thing but I just want an opinion. Which one is the more fun option?
I would think the Sigma 10-20 really fits your bill, ultrawides are fun and they do make you think. I have the Tamron 10-24 and it is a nice lens for street/architecture photography, If you're just taking street shots of people, longer would be better, but for buildings and scenes the ultrawide is great. You will get distortion on the wider shots, but you can have fun with that. Ultrawides really make you think because they give you a lot of options on how to shoot something. Moving a few feet any direction, tilting up or down, even zooming can really change your perspective. Good luck with your choice!
