11-16 as a FF lens.. yes please!

certainly. however, i think you'll be looking for a very long time for even a 14.5mm rectilinear f/2.8... and when you find it, it won't be $600.

I know

So I'll just have to suck it up and use it on the Mk IV.

Joy joy joy!

Going to the camera shop right now to get this bad boy! SOOOOOO psyched!

I love this lens. I'd say I used it 75% of the time in Paris and London (with my 50 and 85 getting the rest of the work), and it's also the lens that's usually mounted on my camera for any spot work I do aorund town.

This is the wide angle lens that i want to buy next for my APS-C camera, I think glass quality is superb. By the way great pictures folks, keep them coming !

apixelintime · 21st of April 2011 (Thu)

The last time I looked B&H and Adorama were out of stock on these with an unknown listed as an instock date.

I just picked up my copy from Competitive Camera in Dallas. They have them and I asked - they do mail order. They are very prompt in answering e-mails. If you need this lens and cant find one, this is a good vendor. (and no, I do not work there and have not been paid to say this. Just trying to be helpful.)

Picked this baby up at lunch. I think I am in love!!

I am about a foot away from the bumper. Just a snap, was kinda in a hurry.

40D, 11mm, F7.1, 1/80th, ISO100

These are among the best shots ever I've seen from tokina 11-16.
Congrats!

you were the only reason i bought this lens you have some amazing pictures

forouza1 · 22nd of April 2011 (Fri)

Great pictures all. I'm so excited to try this lens out. Going to Italy in a couple days so I'll report back hopefully soon with some snaps.

FYI, I purchased mine from B&H a couple weeks ago for around $600. Very impressed with the build quality but I am a little nervous about protecting the frontal element (I don't like using filters because of flare and maintaining good image quality) given the hood is so shallow. Just trying to be vigilant on using the lens cap.
