Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8

What happens if the zoom wheel is accidentally turned to 11 before activating the shutter? (I fear it is a risk that a 5D owner probably would not want to take).

Nothing? The image will just have a horrible vignette to it.

there are tons of images on my flickr using this lens on a full frame camera.

unlike canon ef-s lenses, this tokina does NOT protrude into the mirror box, so there is no interference.

in my experience the hard vignette comes in at 14.5mm. anything from 14.5-16 does not show the hard line.

Two HDR shots from my visit to Madison Square Garden on monday for the Knicks vs Orlando game:

This is a block away from the Garden. You can see the tower in the center is part of the complex.

Is it this lens, or just the subjects that I have been shooting with it recently, that make me want to put the camera (practically) down on the ground for the shot?
I think this lens would be a really good fit for the 60D with the flip out screen.
I was not looking through the viewfinder when I snapped this. I just lined the camera up with the guidelines on the ground and..

This is a 9-11 memorial in Jersey City right across the river from where the towers stood.

Just got my 11-16 from POTN member.. will play with it as soon as i can!

This lens should be a perfect fit with 60D and its articulating screen no doubt about it !

I pushed this HDR a bit more in Photoshop:

Ive gotten not only my camera but my whole bag into several different games at US Airways in Phoenix and the Target Center in MN. I got a little heck for having the bag period in Phx, and a bit of it too for having my 100L in MN but I found out that different guards have different standards, one lady was not letting me in no matter what with the lens because it was "too big" and I tried another guard and he let me through without any questions... I always go plenty early just in case though.

Just received mine:

Unbelievable lens. Amazing build quality, smooth zoom and smooth focus ring. Amazing optics.


Shot wide open @ 2.8, iso 1600 on a Canon 60D
