Pros:SHARPNESS at all focal points, AUTOFOCUS, BRIGHTNESS
Cons:flares resistance, focus a/m selector a bit uncomfortable
Opinion:After two years I review this lens that has given me so many satisfactions, in the profile you will find the photos. It has been used as an all-round lens given the range of focal points that are the ones with which I shoot the most, from 16 mm to 30 mm (equivalent fx 35mm). Sharp lens at all focal points does not suffer from coma at the edges, bright at all focal points thanks to the aperture f 2.8, ideal for astronomical photography, at 20 mm with an aperture f 2.8 you can notice a nice bokeh, acceptable for the type of wide-angle lens. Precise autofocus. I recommend it for daytime landscape photography, it is discreet even for night photography as a cityscape but beware of nearby or lateral light sources, especially in backlight creates many flares that can be a problem in post production. Uncomfortable the transition from car focus to manual: a ring around the lens that you have to carry forward or backward, it would have been better a very simple swich, it seems to use a small shotgun. Good focal ring, the infinite fire does not coincide with the cleat that is in the ring but is at the bottom of the scale in the right margin. All in all it is a decent lens sin both for apsc.
Pros:Sharpness, focal opening, overall brightness, good build quality and non-outrageous price.
Cons:at the moment no one except the fact that you have to take your hand with the AF/MF ring
Opinion:Purchased this Tokina used by RCE (but practically new), after using Canon's 10-22 EF-S for years. On an overall level I am so far satisfied with the choice: the lens has a good clarity and brightness, the diaphragm 2.8 is certainly a not indifferent plus that is then found in the photos that it churns out. Certainly also good quality of the materials used. Ergonomically it is well balanced. As almost everyone has already pointed out, the small mole is that AF/MF ring that is a bit annoying to use when you are used to the selectors of the other objectives.
Cons:Light flare but nothing serious, construction quality a bit plastic, switching from af to mf, distortion at the corners in some situations
Opinion:The lens is really useful on landscapes, when you have little space and when you want to take photos with many details inside. In my opinion the yield of the colors is not the maximum, I have two sigma goals and the difference is noticeable, obviously not in all situations. Great for night photography. I absolutely recommend it, although a few mm more like sigma 8 - 16 would have made a difference, but that's fine
Cons:It has no real cons, perhaps the absence of stabilizer, but serves little on a wide-angle
Opinion:I had the pleasure of owning this wonderful lens. Let's start with THE CONSTRUCTION, it looks like a small compact hard plastic cylinder like a tank, remarkable the quality of the plastics and controls of zoom and rubber focus. The lens does not extend when zooming. The lampshade is grafted with an anti-atomic mechanism. The lens also supports 82mm screw filters, which you want to tell them. It should be noted the presence of ghieres that make the lens tropicalized (even between room and lens). As for the AUTOFOCUS, it works quietly and quite well-performing, although it is not a native canon lens, really remarkable (certainly we talk about a wide angle on aps-c the depth of field helps a lot, but also at 20mm 2.8 (32mm equiv.), i've never had a problem with it. An audible hair, but nothing serious. It has the window for fire distances (never used, I prefer to use 10x zoom in live view). Nothing serious about the switching system, which I like and gives this brand its character. For the image quality is really remarkable, impressive sharpness, with 24-megapixel room, good at the edges at full opening, fantastic to central diaphragms. Marked the distortion to 11mm (as it is obvious it is), easily rerunable in posts with slow profile on lightroom. Personally I made some of my best photos, also ideal for astrophotography (we say it is the only real lens available for aps-c canon). I would add that it can be successfully mounted on full frame, using it from 14mm up. Nothing serious about the management of the flare, from serious problems only shooting in contrasting scenes against light, causing you to lose definition to what is in the shade. Let's say you either choose another angle or you give up taking the photo, but you'll get it once in 1000 photos. Buy this masterpiece and forget about the 10 22 canons or worse still the 10-18 dark as the night.
Pros:Brightness, value for money, field angle, material quality, sharpness.
Cons:Inconvenient zoom dial if with "rest" lampshade
Opinion:I have been using this lens on Nikon D7100 for three years and I must say that I am satisfied! Overall the AF is quite fast, the building materials are good and it is very bright. The switch from AF to MF is simple but perhaps slightly cumbersome, once every ten steps the dial struggles to gear. The only con that I often encounter (not serious) is the difficulty in using the zoom dial as the lampshade is in a resting position towards the body of the camera, I almost always use a polarizer and sometimes it is inconvenient to find the lampshade that blocks the movement of the hands. I would say a great choice depending on the value for money and I recommend it to everyone! I recommend the paired lens - 82mm filter.
