Tokina 12-24mm DX at Photokina
Hi all,
I just returned from the exib and like to inform you of a lens I never heard of before.
Tokina had a working 12-14mm lens at their booth and I was able to snap some shots with the attched D70 to get an idea of it. I am not 100% sure if I remeber the apperature value of the lens correct but I think it was 4 for the whole zoom range.
Attached you find two pics. One at 12mm and one at 24mm. Reduced in size and saved with 70% compression due to size restirctions on wetpixel. Both where shot at f4 and 1/100 and 1/200 sec.
The lens had a good feel, size and weight in my opinion and will be available in november for nikon and in january for canon slrs.
The the price should be around 500,- Euro the spokesman said.
Did anyone of you heard anything of this lens already? I cant find any information on the web. But perhabs I am just blinded by the light.... :-)
UPDATED Post: Uups, I just saw that I named the images wrong. Sorry, but everybody noted that already ... :-)
