However, the Tamron 17-50 2.8 came across my mind as this lens would be more versatile for a good purpose lens since I enjoy shooting portraits as well and the benefit of a zoom that the 50mm 1.8 doesn't offer. It would cover a good range since I'm using a crop.

So, now I'm kind of stuck in a dilemma between the Tokina vs. Tamron. Would the Tamron be able to take nice sharp landscape/architecture photo's?
there's a local one being sold for $550 for the tokina 11-16 nikon mount
