Product Description
Engineered from the ground up, Tokina has brought the legendary, multiple
award winning optical technology from the ATX 11-16mm f2.8 to mirrorless
cameras. The new Tokina atx-m 11-18mm f2.8 sets the new standard for compact,
fast aperture super wide-angle lenses specifically engineered to meet the high
performance requirements of todays APS-C crop-sensor mirrorless cameras.
At the heart of the new optical design are two aspherical elements combined with
two super low-dispersion lenses that suppresses chromatic aberrations, nearly
eliminates coma at the edges at f2.8, and produces superior contrast and color
reproduction. Making the lens an excellent choice for any type of photography
including astrophotography.
The lens is small with a maximum length of 3.2 inches (82.7mm) and weighs just
11.8 oz (335 g), 40% lighter than the original ATX 11-16mm f2.8. Making this
lens an excellent choice for professionals and enthusiasts who shoot stills,
create movies, use gimbals, and vloggers needing a super wide lens when talking
to the camera.
The silent ST-M focusing motor provides fast and precise AF operation and is
Fully compatible with Sonys internal camera 5-axis image stabilization, Direct
Manual Focus, MF Assist Mode, Eye AF, and in-camera Optical Correction
technology. Best of all, the camera will not hear the sound of the lens
operating when your are recoding audio with the cameras internal microphones.
The constant f2.8 aperture maintains precise exposure control throughout the
zoom range from 11-18mm. It utilizes 9 rounded aperture blades for incredible
soft bokeh in the out-of-focus areas of your image. It can focus as close as 7.4
inches (19cm) at 11mm and 11.8 inches (30mm) at 18mm.
