Hi
I am intending to sell my tokina 11-16 f2.8 for canon 14 f2.8 L ver1.

In term of IQ... Etc, is this a good move?
I'm using 5d2 and tokina lens is only bearly usable at 16mm on FF.

I know that the tokina is a v sharp lens.

What's ur thought?
Scott

I find the Tokina 11-16mm is perfect at 16mm and usable at 15mm so for the cost difference I haven't been able to justify buying the 14mm f/2.8L but I may need to rent it one day to satisfy my curiosity.

thanks hpulley,

on the 5D2, i still find vignette at 16mm. I am thinking of getting a secondhand 14 f/2.8L.

cheers,
Scott

I am in the same boat. But waiting for newly released Tokina 16-28 reviews.
