Tokina have announced their latest lens available in Nikon F mount, the AT-X 16-28mm f/2.8 Pro FX. Unusually for Tokina this is a full FX lens, not DX as all their more recent optics have been. Good news for FX DSLR owners!
The lens itself is an interesting focal length, somewhere between the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 and the Nikon 16-35mm f/4 VR, and could be an option for those looking for a fast ultra-wide angle pro choice but unable to afford the stunning 14-24. It also features a new "SD-M" (Silent Drive Module) autofocus motor, which we assume is similar for Nikon's AF-S.
Taking design cues from the Nikon 14-24, the Tokina appears to have a similar inbuilt lens hood and does not accept front filters. It is roughly the same size (actually a few mm larger) than the Nikon, and also weighs around just a few grams less at 950g vs 969g.
Price will be 118,000 yen, which is currently around $1,345.
