Can this lens be used with a 1D?

[Pete-eos]

Very cool shots!


should get an image archive started from this...

[wimg]

Can this lens be used with a 1D?
Yes, no vignetting due to the built-in lens hood from about 13 mm, still having a 180 degree AoV diagonally at that FL with the 1D.

HTH, kind regards, Wim

[Mike Harrison]

Can this lens be used with a 1D?

yes

[Lani Kai]

I use mine on a 1D Mark II past 12mm.

[lookingforaname]

intriguing. thanks for adding this lens to the archive list. I'd love to see more pics!

[DerekI]

love them all , and the first one to me is the best .

your lens is nice , I will definitely consider it although I already have the Canon 10-22 , the fishy is cool and the Tokina is pretty sharp as a fishy and shares the same SMC coating of Pentax.

Thanks for this post.

So does it become a rectilinear lens at 17mm? The last posted shot looks straight to me.

[Zilly]

nice shots

but ive got to say non look very fishy more UWA

[wimg]

So does it become a rectilinear lens at 17mm? The last posted shot looks straight to me.

No, it doesn't. But because the AoV at 17 mm on a APS-C cam is only about 120 degrees or thereabouts, if not less, it isn't as obvious, unless you would really point it down or up.

Kind regards, Wim

[wimg]

No they don't, unless you have a not so well corrected UWA. :) Teh bent lines give it away.

Fisheyes use a projection that keeps areas or solids more or less the same, which results in straight lines being bent, except lines going through the center, while well corrected rectilinear lenses do what their moniker promises: they keep straight lines straight, be it with an extreme perspective.


When you look for it, you'll see the difference, even at 17 mm fisheye.

Kind regards, Wim

[Zilly]

but most of the straight lines look straight the only ones that don't are in 2 & 7

[wimg]

but most of the straight lines look straight the only ones that don't are in 2 & 7

The straight lines are the ones going through more or less the center, which is what I mentioned. That is happening in pic 2, but there are many lines which are bent, still :).

Pic 7 was taken at 17 mm, and that was the luck or skill of the photographer, to make it look that straight. However, the lanterns still do have an unnatural bend. :) The closer you get to a 90 degree AoV, with fisheye, the more natural it will look.

Kind regards, Wim

[angryhampster]

How much did you pay for yours? ...I'm considering trading my 10-20 up for one.

Did you defish this one? There's no curvature on the horizon.

[Lani Kai]

You won't see curvature on the horizon if it's placed in the middle of the frame

[digitalfrog]

Here is one shot with a Mark III, works fine above 12mm.
Fune lens but It's quite slow to focus ;-(

[MeanGreeny]

Did you defish this one? There's no curvature on the horizon.

The horizon runs through the centre so the curvature isn't obvious

anyone have any shots at 10 that show-off the fishyness? Please post 'em if you got 'em.

Extremely happy with this lens so far. I just got it in this morning -- actually answered the door in my underwear. I've got a terribly busy week so I may not be posting much with it, but next week I'll be shooting as much as possible :D

Anyway, here's a couple from my walk home from class this afternoon:

[MaDProFF]

Guys how do you find this lens at 10mm at the min aperture, f3.5 and 17 mm at min aperture f4.5, is it still sharp as if it was at say f8?
I just got a Sigma 12-24, for my MK3, and really not happy with it, ( I can send it back) I know it is prob a bad copy and there are better copies, but I like the fact the Tokina is faster.

[Jman13]

Can't wait until mine gets here (should be here tomorrow!)! I'll certainly post some photos after the weekend.

[MaDProFF]

what really bugs me is this lens sells for @ £250-00 HK, and is £500-00 in UK

The product is packaged well BUT.......

Only use them if you don't need it in the next 3 weeks.

They are slow, but it's probably because so many people order !!!

Next up is CameraKing at £330.

Check out Amazon for the list.

Could anyone please post a example of a shot at 10mm, then that shot 'de-fished'? I'm starting to think that this is the lens for my wide angle fetish rather than the 10-20, 10-22, I just can't get wide enough (I've rented both). Also: At 17mm, this lens is roughly as wide as a 10mm rectilinear, right?

[ep88]

I just pulled the trigger :o I can't wait to get it.

17mm fish is roughly 12mm rectilinear.

As for defishing, you do lose resolution as you get to the corners, so it's not the absolute best way to shoot, but sometimes it's better than nothing, as you can't get that wide on a rectilinear unless you have the Sigma 12-24 on full frame.

Here are two at 10mm defished:

First, full fisheye at 10mm:

And now the same shot defished:

And the same shot defished (and cropped with a panorama aspect ratio to get a bunch in):
http://www.jordansteele.com/forumlinks/basilica_defished2.jpg

[Jman13]

And, another fisheye from the Baltimore Basilica (though, a much better subject for fisheye usage, as the distortion fits the subject better):

BH has some used ones in stock for $499 + shipping. Cheapest used ones I have found online. I went ahead an pulled the trigger. $515 for two-day air. Can't wait for this thing to get here. [BH Link] (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/used/468737/Tokina_ATX107PRODXC_10_17mm_f_3_5_4_5_AT_X_107.htm l)

I ordered it specifically for a shoot that I'm doing for HOOTERS Bass Fishing on the Wal-Mart FLW Tour (http://flw.flwoutdoors.com/) the week of April 19th. Should be able to get some awesome shots on the water as I tag along with the HOOTERS angler.

Hopefully it'll be WIDE enough. :)

[MaDProFF]

Had another play with mine yesterday, though you do notice how slow the AF is when getting close ups of a moving subject, still pretty pleased with these two though, one was 12mm and the other a 17mm on a 1.3 crop

[Coppatop85]

How would the IQ and sharpness on this lens compare to the tamron 17-50 or the Canon 17-55 IS?

[MaDProFF]

I actually think this lens (My one) is Pretty sharp. and IQ very good, I owned a 17-55 is and was never really impressed with it, found it quite cold, but it is still a great lens, I certainly like the Colors of the Tokina 10-17

Gosh I want this lens now. I think I'll do like Hamster and trade/sell the 10-20. Be so much more useful at weddings as the 10-20 can be fun, a fisheye effect adds something unlike the stretch distortion of the 10-20.

Hampster, still like yours? Still got it?

:(

But I love it!!!

[JC4]

Haven't had a chance to take mine out and about yet. But, I did play in the back-yard a bit. So, in the interest of this thread, here's a couple shots.

Not exactly my intended purpose for buying a fisheye but it does demostrate the sharpness and color you can get from the Tokina. And, I never thought I'd do many shallow DOF shots with this lens :)

Very little cropping, and minor LR2 adjustments.

[_aravena]

It has such a nice close focus I've been using it a bit for that type of photography.

[JC4]

A couple more. I'm still getting use to this perspective, so more back-yard shots.

If we get any color this year, the Tokina should make for some interesting photos.

its hard to take a bad shot with this lens:
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b264/eworth/2008%20Subaru%20WRX/Chevron.jpg

So far I'm loving it, but I notice that even at 17mm there still a slight area of the fisheye'ness apparent.

[steverc]

This looks like the lens for me!
I've been looking at a wide angle and a fish eye lately but the cost of two lenses was putting me off a bit. But to get a fisheye thats not too fishy at 17mm its exactly what i want.
I'm a bit worried though, it looks like your not able to put a uv filter on this lens to protect it. Is this right?

[_aravena]

Right but it still makes for a great lens. You shouldn't really use this all the time where you can't be careful enough with it. That's how it is for any fisheye though.

[steverc]

its the next lens ill buy. just looking under the sofa cushions for the last few dollars.

does anyone have a pic with the lens cap on? i just interested in how it fits due to the curved front element

[_aravena]

It's a big cap is all and is made to fit over. It's metal.

[steverc]

thanks sounds good. well i found that money in the sofa, so fisheye here i come!! :D

Man, I'm so tempted to pick up this lens. But I know it's a specialty one, and wouldn't use it all the time.... hmmm DANGIT I WISH I HAD ENDLESS PILES OF CASH!

[Simply Ravishing]

As soon as the tax refund check comes, this will be in the mail!

[drPheta]

I dood it. One is in the mail on its way to me!

[Simply Ravishing]

I ended up geting the 11-16mm UWA... I am not so certain I need the fish now =(

[_aravena]

I sold this for the 11-16! :lol: Loved both. Both unique and different for their own things. I will get a FE again but probably Sigma's 10.

[Jman13]

Yeah, but to give an idea of the width difference:

12mm rectilinear (just a little longer than your 11-16)

If you decide to sell, let me know! I am looking to buy this.

[_aravena]

I kinda already this this baby. Now I'm thinking 70-200 F2.8 IS then Sigma 10 F2.8 before anything else. I got my second body and a flash...now it's just what I want and not need...save the 70-200.

Just got this over the weekend. Gave it a walk around in downtown Seattle on Sunday. Probably the weirdest day of weather I've seen, starting with heavy snow in the morning, which quickly turned to rain, then clear skies and sunshine, followed by heavy heavy rain and dark clouds as far as the eye could see, and then more clear skies and sunshine the rest of the day... oh and of course there were intermittent gusts of 50+ mph winds =)

Wow, those 360's are amazing, how do you do that? Just like you would a normal pano, except probably 2 shots?

Here are two from today on my 1Ds Mark II, at 15mm. The first one has part of the top of the image cropped out, and it's been mostly defished with PT Lens. The second one is uncropped out of camera (and I made it big since fisheye shots just seem to look better big) Great little lens. The corners are a little soft on the 1Ds II, but still very good.

Taken last night at the inaugural MLS game in Seattle. Seattle Sounders FC vs New York Red Bulls. It was a great game in front of a sold out crowd (32k). Lots of fun, and the Sounders won in impressive fashion, 3-0!!
