Hey himself, i had the same dilemma and tried both the Sigma 10-20 f3.5 and the tokina 11-16 and ended up with the Sigma. Both were excellent but the Sigma had better light bursts which were very pretty indeed and really churns out some beautiful, light images with great colour. Im sure its a personal thing but i wasnt sold on the one touch clutch mechanism on the Tokina. I have had the Sigma since Christmas and never stop using it and i know its only 1mm but it makes such a difference as to what you can fit into the image. I am getting so much into a frame now. I can stand less that a metre from a castle tower and fit the whole thing in top to bottom with stunning results. I paid undr £500 for it too so not bad money.
Do try both though, they are stunning lenses!
