Comments: 11, on the topic: Announcement: Tokina atx-i 11-16mm F2.8 CF

  • koba

    The Tokina 11-16 / 2.8 has always been the best wide-angle aperture zoom for APS-C sensors, and has probably sold well and the company has apparently improved it, which is welcome. Interestingly, Tokina has some excellent lenses - the world's sharpest 24-70 / 2.8 for full-frame cameras, the world's sharpest 70-200 / 4 with stabilizer, excellent optical performance and picture, and mechanically 100 / 2.8 Macro (macro and a portrait with amazing bokeh), ultra-wide zoom 17-35 / 4 with the lowest distortions for full-frame cameras. In terms of mechanics, they are excellent too, in almost all reviews, including those of the repairmen. With rare exceptions, their prices are also quite popular.

  • Neo

    Same circuit
    Same motor
    Same ancient switch
    The same ITF schedules
    Why Restayl is not 11-20, but the old 11-16?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Most likely 11-20 will be significantly more expensive

  • koba

    Third-party lenses always had and will have problems with focusing, so the company tried to improve it, let's see how it turned out. And even better is that the release of this version will slightly reduce the cost of the old one, which is generally not particularly cheap on the secondary. If you notice, the layout of the focus scale ends in 2 places, which is already a rarity in the modern world, and 2 meters and an aperture of 4 or 5,6 on crop sensors are already hyperfocal, so the focusing accuracy of such lenses is not particularly critical when I was Tokinovsky, also very good 12-24 / 4, by and large, I did not use auto focus.

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Under the mirror crop, there simply are no alternatives to a light over-width. With 2.8 only Tokins.

  • Roman

    With 10-18 on the Canon crop, I thought a lot about taking or not taking. Well, somehow there will be no special advantages - a significantly larger size and weight with comparable sharpness due to the extra aperture, which is not particularly needed. In the landscape, you still tighten the hole, and the stub gives you a bigger payoff. And the stock of focal points is less.

    But then I remembered that this is Tokina, which means he will be on FF. And, as they say, 16 mm works without problems, and some people reach 14 mm if the angles are not significant. And then I thought again ...

    • Arkady Shapoval

      10-18 a very good Canon lens

      • Roman

        Surprisingly.

    • koba

      It is common knowledge and even I am thinking of buying it, by the way, I just checked it, it has dropped in price, now you can buy it for 200-220 dollars in excellent condition. There is no stab, but high-aperture, made 2 heads better than that canon and most other lenses in the world, is no longer very expensive and covers the full frame. There will be a holiday in the viewfinder, autofocus will work more stable, and there will be less noise at the same ISO. How interesting it turns out - on the Nikon crop it becomes 16,5mm at the short end, and on the full frame it also starts working from 16mm, that is, there is no difference in terms of the viewing angle. Another point - on dxomark it shows a 20% higher resolution than Canon 10-18, and in the corners it goes without saying. Bu 10-18 also costs $ 200 ... But the kenon will be better for video with autofocus, it is lighter and its STM motor will definitely deteriorate after the warranty period expires, and the plastic lenses will begin to reduce the resolution by that time too, kenon has already taken great care of this. By the way, one more thing - if you use it in crop mode on full-frame cameras, then you will have real 11-16mm, which is already interesting. I have 12MP D3s, but I still get 5 megapixels on real 11mm, there is a little interpolation and print at least on A3, and whoever has a 24MP camera will have all 10MP, and 36MP D800e or D810, besides, without antimoir filter, they will get real 15MP, and this for that kind of money can be obtained only with Tokina 11-16, besides, on the conditions of a full frame, it also turns out to be easy !!! Here's a little discussion with you that convinced me that I should buy it as soon as I can, although I was going to buy a Sigma 12-24 to cover ultra-wide angles ...

      • koba

        I take part of the information back! Just looked through tokin reviews on full-frame cameras. It turns out that it can be delivered, but in reality only the diaphragm 11 or 16 will be working, in the corners, of course, before that there is complete mess. Therefore, it is essentially not suitable for this business, so it remains one of the best glasses only for crop.

  • Vitaly N

    Interestingly, by 16 mm there will also be a sharp drop in sharpness by 2.8 or will it be fixed?
