As JNR said, the Fuji 10-24 is an excellent lens and you really don't need super fast UWA zooms as you won't be blurring much background anyway and the OIS on that lens enables you shoot at a 1/2 second with some attention to technique.
I've shot my fair share of Tamrons, Tokinas and even the most highly rated of the Sigma lenses... and they simply don't yield the consistent image quality and AF response I get from the one XC lens I own (the 50-230)... which performs similarly to my XF lenses.
Well put JNR - we're getting slightly off topic but yes the XC's are terrific and under valued. I've been beating that drum for years. I own a lot of lenses including some of Fuji's XF lenses but the two I use the most on a weekly basis are the the XC 16-50 and XC 50-230 which I always keep mounted on my two bodies. My other lenses, I use for more special purpose but for grab-and-go you cannot beat the XC lenses.
Well ignoring your OP as it was tad offish for someone wanting help.
OIS on the 10-24 is your friend in these situations and a zoom provides the advantage of precise framing. Also a high quality f4 zoom like the Fuji is most likely considerably better across the frame at f4 than a faster prime might be wide open. You're shooting an interior so you'll want excellent IQ across the frame.
Check out what one of the most respected lens testers on the WEB has to say about the Fuji 10-24. It's for the most part on par with Fuji's own 14mmf2.8 and actually slightly better than the 12mmf2.8 Touit.
Why complain to us? Just buy the nikon. It will be fine. You need specialty lenses and these lenses are expensive. Be thankful for Tokina. In a few years, reassess the mirrorless scene.
In a few words, you get what you pay for.
Then you would like the sharpness of the Samyang 12mm F2.
It’s not about shots that can or can’t be taken... and it never was. From an ease of use standpoint, mirrorless wins every time, if for no other reason than you get a direct view of the image in your viewfinder, rather than having to guess at exposure. I don’t want to start a long extended discussion about mirrorless vs. DSLRs here, since it’s all been done a million times before. But suggesting, as you implied, that mirrorless is somehow for beginners is... well, sort of a crock IMHO.
Honest question - where is Fuji lacking here? They make some of the best glass around, and it seems speculative at best to say that non-existent Sigma lenses will put Fuji on notice. Comparatively speaking, Zeiss makes excellent glass, but the Touit lenses don’t meaningfully surpass first party options. Market share is one thing, but Fuji also set a pretty high bar.
TRUE, even when you out a Canon dSLR vs Canon EOS-R, DSLR options are always cheaper. For me, DSLR will always stick around because DSLR (as a system including lens) are far more affordable than M43 / Fuji / or Sony mirrorless.
