The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:Sharpness in the middle, honest price, quality and robustness
Cons:Poor sharpness at the edges and coma, slow AF, low flare resistance, is not tropicalized, you can not disassemble the lampshade
Opinion:Taken as the first lens to be mounted on Nikon D750. Despite being plastic it has excellent build quality, solid and reliable. Although the sharpness in the center is acceptable at full opening, at the edges it is scarce and the coma is quite noticeable causing the nose to twist to those who have the craze for perfection. Moreover, the AF is sometimes uncertain and slow, I would not use it in dynamic situations if not used properly. I replaced it because adding more pieces to my optical park the total weight was starting to become challenging.
Pros:Unbeatable quality price, good color yield, overall quality.
Cons:Not tropicalized (at that price?), slight loss on the edges, flare to handle
Opinion:The lens would have marketed even with 200 euros more list. He deserves them all and even more. I used it for reportage, landscapes and interiors and I can only be satisfied. I matched a dedicated Ring Haida and 3 slab filters, to get better results in some situations. In the reportage you have to pay attention to the backlights and side sources, which could leave halos of light on the shot. The lens is very protruding and feels the light from the sides, despite the built-in lampshade. Convenient if spartan, switching from af to manual, pulling the lens back. It works, so it's fine, I'm interested in lenses and less aesthetic solutions ema more functional. 16-28 covers a good angle, there are those who do better with 15-30 but you have to put the rest on it. The combination with the slab filters, of high quality, has given me good satisfaction in the past. Slow that I definitely recommend, solid as a grenade. It weighs, but there are few lenses that do not weigh and if we do not talk about 500mm sincerely I do not see a problem, in the bag or with the strap on the side: problem solved ;-) Slow fire problems? The lens for sporty use, is connected remotely (otherwise you stand on the hood when they pass). By hand, in broad daylight, problems do not give. At 16 or 28 mm the fire catches it in a fraction, and the engine does not go back and forth
Opinion:I owned this lens for about a year, affected by the focal excursion, the fact that it was 2.8 and the dial to switch from AF to MF, things that I considered very useful for astronomical photography, the lens works well or anyway was very balanced with regard to the color rendering, I had some problems pairing the aforementioned with canon 6d markII giving problems with live shot view solved immediately excluding some settings in the machine ,I have noticed a considerable distrog often not easy recovery, but I think it is given precisely by very wide-angle lenses I replaced this lens for excessive flare with rainbow colors, and for a problem encountered with block diaphragms, in the replacement I preferred to replace it with a canon 17-40 f4 that turns darker than the tokina but until now has faced much worse situations with better results , I could recommend it as a lens for astronomical use, or if you want to exploit the dystrophion of the lens for particular effects, but the advice for difficult situations and against light, the lens is very heavy and already after a few minutes of use makes its presence felt
Pros:Sharpness even at full aperture, closed is as a razor, made professional, colors, construction and robustness, distortion free and affordable price.
Cons:Little resistance to flare (but not entirely tragic) focus slow, tiring and sometimes uncertain that make it not suitable for fast situations.
Opinion:Bought by very little waiting for a Canon 16-35, what to say, I hit the mellow yield and a sharpness engraved on the whole frame, the highlight of the details satisfies me fully, the colors are soft but a bit ' chilly, with the balance you have to work a little '... For the rest offers a very solid construction and very comfortable, the ring nuts are hard but you can get used to... The autofocus is not very slow and obviously varies according to the focus of the camera body but not being ultrasonic is not a splinter... I do not recommend it to those who have to work in speed conditions... All in all it is a lens that in my opinion can really do a lot of competition to the big houses because of its performance, highly recommended!
