Digital camera reviews of Tokina 12-24/4.0 AT-X 124 AF Pro DX Zoom Lens f/ Canon EOS Digital USA
Digital camera Review: Very good lens for Canon 40D
Summary: 5 Stars
I shoot RAW with a 40D and the resulting images are sharp and well-defined. There are the usual distortions with this level of lens but no more than with the Sigma or Canon lenses of 10-20 mm range. Excellent option to the Canon and Sigma choices.Digital camera Review: Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am an amateur photographer. I live in a 7 months long overcast town. I bought this lens to get more light in. I like this lens every way you look at it. It is actually sharp and it is light. To walk around, I carry this lens and my 35mm. Do not need much more than these!
March 27: I've sold my Tokina :( I still believe that it is a good lens, very sharp and well built. But I could never get used to the 11-16 range. I need more flexibility, something like 10-45mm (I do not know if that range exists). The Tokina is a fixed lens. So, you could say that it's me not the lens. The guy who bought it from me is a photographer who does weddings. I guess, he does not need so much flexibility in the lens. I would buy these lens again if my photographic needs change. I'm still an amateur.
I wish I could find a say 12-45mm 2.8 lens!
Digital camera Review: best 400 dollars i ever spent
Summary: 5 Stars
for the past 3 years i have been shooting with a canon 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 as an every day lens and a canon 16-35mm f/2.8 when i could get my hands on one. after my professor and adviser recommended the tokina 12-24mm to me several times, i finally splurged and bought one. OH MAN do i love it.
sturdier than the 24-85 and significantly less bulky than the 16-35, i find it sharper than either lens at any aperture. the manual focus ring is nice and tight and because the zoom element is internal, it does not slide when pointed down. the auto focus is a touch noisy, but pretty quick and accurate. over all, it is very well built.
not to mention, the super wide angle makes excellent and interesting images. it is great for landscape photography and close-up portraits, among many other things.
i definitely recommend this lens. it is well worth the money.
Digital camera Review: great lens
Summary: 5 Stars
Great lens. If you are looking for a wide angle lens at a great price, this is it. The photos are very clear and super wide. Everything is very smooth and solid. You will not be disapointed.Digital camera Review: great lens
