Reny, the advice one can give you is heavily dependent on the purpose of your photography and/or what you want to achieve.

So, if you don’t mind to be a little bit more specific …
The 10.5 with that camera should give you quite decent results. What is it that you are not happy with?

hi Jurgen,

The 10.5 is an excellent lens and before fisheyes became ubiquitous it was widely used by most panographers. So, before looking at other lenses and cameras I’d suggest you try to figure out why your results aren’t as sharp as expected. Do you focus manually? Using live view? Mind to share a sample image?
