Consider Tokina 12-24mm f/4. You will not regret. Great for landscape.

Might as well buy Nikon Fisheye 10.5/2.8 DX and a copy of Capture NX to 'defish' the image.

Agree with u

Or tilt the camera till you find the "sweet spot" with the lens so that the scenery pics will appear normal and not distorted.

Does it really work? It might save me a few hundreds if I were to get the Fisheye and Sigma 10-20 lens.
