p.1 #1 · Where to find Tokina 17mm prime?

Anyone know of a resource for this lens (or any decent wide prime, for that matter) in the $300 range

I am in need of one for a trip soon. New or used, no matter...

thanks

It's been discontinued for a couple years. I owned the Nikon mount version a few years back. It was ok but not much better than a good wide zoom. You might find a used one at keh.com and, of course, fleabay.

Thanks for the input.

I have the 15-30 Sigma and love it. I was just trying to avoid the large size in favor of a compact wide prime for travel
