Thanks,

I got one on eBait for a good price last fall. Stuck it away for a rainy day just in case. Always have a secret weapon in store. N

I was just letting you know to watch eBay. Lot's of non divers buy fisheye lenses and tire of them quickly. They are not common on eBay but a few show up time to time.

I would rather keep mine I think, I might just need it, like I said, I always have a secret weapon for when the chips are down. Not saying beyond that, know when to hold'em, know when to lay'em down.

Will keep an eye on eBay, you had me checking eBait per your first post

Thanks,
Phil

The Tokina 10-17 for Canon has been on backorder since Mid-November!! No one seems to be getting any in...I check Ebay every other day and none in the past couple of months.

There are rumors that the 10-17 lens is being discontinued...I have yet to see anything concrete about this, however the fact that Tokina hasnt shipped any of these lenses in more than two months is really making me believe the rumors!

I have been talking to the U.S. Tokina folks and they vehemently deny that it is discontinued. My guess is that there will be an improved version out in time for PMA where THK is exhibiting.
