Has anyone used this lens, and if so, what was your reaction to it?

Have not used it, but heard only good things about it!
Since no one else is answering I can only give you my experience with the Tokina 11-20 f2.8 DX. Well built, heavy, sharp lens. For what I needed I could not have picked a better lens. I know it's not the one you are looking at but Tokina makes great lenses.
Thanks for the feedback. I agree with Tokina quality. I have three Tokina lenses, including the very sharp well built 24-70 f2.8, and I am trying to decide between the 11-20 2.8 and the 14-20 2.0. One possible issue I have heard about on the 11-20 is back focusing, though there are many outstanding reviews of the lens and I was originally going to buy it before I saw the 14-20. I like the extra brightness, but will be giving up some width at the wide end. Decisions, decisions. This is why I was asking for more information.
f/2??? I thought that had to be a typo for sure! Nope.

All the reviews I have seen make it a GREAT lens - shame it is not available in Sony A mount ! All the latest Tokina and Sigma lenses not available in Sony mount. - only Tamron keeps them alive.
