All I can say is WOW ! The Tokina 12-24mm DX PRO is one of the best built lenses in my collection. The photos turn out perfect. The build quality is that of a PRO lens and I can say that this lens will take whatever nature throws its way.
My Tokina 12-24 is the Version I which work only with Nikon cameras with the built in focus motor which is great for my D300s. There is no need for the Version II model unless you have a lower end consumer Nikon withou the focus motor.
I picked this lens up on Ebay BRAND NEW for $335.00 which in my opinion was a GREAT buy. I also picked up a 3 year extended warranty for $35.00 bucks through Squaretrade......
All in all this is my favorite lens which I use for Landscape photogrophy......
Oh, I put this lens up against the Nikon 12-24 and to tell you the truth, I could not see any difference in the quality of the photos. I did notice the build quality of the Tokina to be somewhat better and more solid.
Hope this helps with your choice.
Now, go out and take some photos.

This lens is built like a tank! Sharpness and contrast are superb! Color reproduction is excellent. CA/PF is very minimal for an UWA lens. AF locks on nicely and accurately. AF speed is a little slower due to not being an HSM/USM type focusing motor, but not slow by any means. Excellent for landscapes!

Purchased for my Nikon D7000. Amazing pictures from a landscape standpoint. I believe it is easy to use, focuses in one of the best ranges and depths on the market, and is well priced.
