I'm from old Blighty, but I'm currently living in Australia for a little while. I've got a Nikon D3300 with:

18-55mm
18-70mm
70-300mm

I'm looking into getting a wide angle lens for big landscape shots. I'm popping over to New Zealand at some point, and I'd like to get some vista shots. Any recommendations for a fairly decent budget lens?

Tokina 11-16 f2.8 (version 2).

This is the best budget wide angle lens for crop sensor Nikons. Make sure you get version 2.
How about this? How do I know it is version 2?

So tempting... If I can only take two lenses with me to New Zealand, what would you recommend (including a possible wide angle lens)?

Looking to shoot landscape and general pics.

I ended up getting the Sigma 10-20 a couple of days ago, and I've really enjoyed using it.

Nice one! It's my favourite lens at the moment smile
Yeah I have to admit, this is my current favourite as well. I tend to take this and my Sigma 70-300 with me everywhere now.
