Sigma makes a 10-20 f/4.5, not very fast but gets good reviews. If I was looking, I'd save a bit more or buy a used Nikon 10-24 f/3.5. I own it and its very good on my D7100.............

Why so serious?

I have the Sigma 10-20mm F 4-5.6. to meet my super wide angle needs (FOV on my D7100 comparable to a 15-30mm on an FX sensor)....I don't shoot any really low light images with this lens thus I don't need a faster aperture. Sigma also makes an F3.5 version if one needs a faster aperture...BTW, this is a DX format lens....One of the few DX format lenses I own...I can link to images if desired...

Don't let price lead you to believe that Sigma 10-20 isn't a good lens.  That lens is one of my favorites.  You want an even better deal on it.  Check out www.keh.com

Little late chiming in here but another vote for a Sigma 10-20mm if you are shooting DX format... Ooops, already responded I see.
