^ And there lies the problem. I like them both. Hahaha!
But yeah. If I get one, I won't be able to get the other one for a long while. I'm trying to figure out which one to get now. Both have their pluses, both have their minuses, & both have their own sets of distortion. I had a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 rectilinear for my old Sony A200 DSLR, so I know what I would be dealing with as far as the DA 12-24mm goes. I've never owned a fisheye, though. The DA 10-17mm thread has some pretty neat photos, though, but the fisheye can get distracting at times. Decisions, decisions.
