I found one post over of FM where a chap had used it on a 1.3 crop camera without issues. Looking for a second opinion or confirmation. Cheers.

Macs are A solution, not THE solution. Get a good desktop i7 with Windows 7 and come tell me that sucks for photo or video editing.

I use the Tokina 12-24 with a 1DmkII, and it's excellent from about 15mm and up.
