photo.net_industry_news Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 <p>Tokina has announced that they will be releasing their AT-X 24-70mm F/2.8 FX Lens in the U.S. This fast lens maintains its F/2.8 aperture throughout its zoom range. Its unique optical design ensures sharp images with proper contrast, even exposure over the whole image and controlled chromatic aberration. Along with innovative optics, the lens has a Silent Drive-Module motor that reduces AF noise making it one of Tokina’s quickest and quietest auto-focusing lenses. It also has a One-touch Focus Clutch Mechanism that enables photographers to easily switch between AF and MF by snapping the focus ring either forward for auto focus or backward for manual focus. </p> <p>The lens will be available in the U.S. in August and is expected to retail for $999.00.</p> <p>For more information about the <a href="http://www.kenkotokinausa.com/tokina/products/atxprofx/atx2470mmf28profx/">TOKINA AT-X 24-70MM F/2.8 FX Lens click here</a>!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andylynn Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 <p>This has potential. Under $1000, and well built. If its performance is at or near the level of the name brands I'd be sorely tempted.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
