Pros: affordable price, robust, well made, optical quality

Cons: does not carry screw filters, weather tightness with question mark

Opinion: I thought to take the sigma 14-24, but 1200 euros for the use I make of it were too much, then by chance I saw some comments on the Tokina Opera 16-28 and I knew that the 50 1.4 opera has excellent reviews and therefore I risked. The most doubtful point is the behavior in astrophotography, because I knew well that in landscapes at F 11 everyone is fine. Then I was very interested in the focal length around 20 mm and has excellent qualities already at full aperture. To make it short I tested it in a session on the Argentario and in the vertical pano 16 mm at f4 it is very good. In horizontal single shot, the coma effect in my opinion is perhaps seen a little too much. That's fine for now. I always keep the Sammy 14 2.8 in stock, which perhaps goes a little better. Note the infinity is almost at the end of the stroke, missing a bit and therefore I always recommend to focus by hand at 200X and fix with a tape. The flare tightness looks good to me from shots against the sun. In conclusion excellent alternative at an acceptable price.

Pros: Quality at the right price

Cons: Weatherproof, even if it has the rubber on the attachment.

Opinion: After a few months of use and testing, I can confirm that it is a very usable lens. From the tests on targets it is clear that it suffers from a slight curvature of the field and that the DOF (depth of field) with dense sensors is actually very sensitive to small displacements of the machine, differences of 2-3 cm are noted in fine details, the DOF at 18 mm f2.8 at 2 meters theoretically should be 3 meters instead just a difference of 2-3 cm between right and left and you immediately notice the Edges. In astro-photography certainly at f4 makes very well, however, despite being a wide angle pushed the difference between shooting on a tripod and freehand even at times of 1/100 is noticeable. Flare resistance is good. It has an affordable cost and does its job very well. One of the few reviews with graphs can be found here: https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/reviews/tokina-opera-16-28mm-f28-ff: for landscape designers F 16 holds up very well, to make portraits set 18-28 mm F2.8 is fine. For astro advice 16 mm F4. to give an idea of the central sharpness in line w / p height at F 2.8 goes from 2100 to 16mm to 1300 to 28 mm. (For comparisons 50 sigma to 1.4 is 2100, the tamron 90 macro is 1900 f 2.8, the sigma 105 macro is 1500 f 2.8): so do not worry is a very flexible and usable lens.
