john_lee39 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Can I use Tokina AT-X 107 DX 10-17mm f/3.5-4.5 and AT-X 124 AF PRO DX 12-24mm f/4 for Canon eos3 camera (or eos 5D)? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_wilkie Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 They are not designed to be used on a full frame camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bueh Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 DX = Crop-factor body only. Good luck in finding a 10mm or 12mm ultra-wide for a full-frame body (at reasonable prices and with modern features). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Actually, the Sigma 10-20mm lens will mount on a full-frame body, but there will be vignetting. However, the first few pictures at Pixelpeeper http://www.pixel-peeper.com/lenses/?lens=3 are actually taken on a Canon 5D FF camera, so you can see what the vignetting is.

terry_smith2 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 On the other hand, Sigma makes a 12-24 and a 15-30 that both work correctly on a film or full frame digital body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yakim_peled1 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 They will mount and work O.K. but you can expect vignetting in some or all focal lengths and apertures. What I don't understand is why you are considering them in the first place? Why not use a FF lens? Happy shooting, Yakim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimstrutz Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 You can safely use both of these Tokina lenses on a full frame body, including the EOS 3. The Tokina 10-17 will be a full frame fisheye and fill the entire frame of the EOS 3 at 15-17mm, but vignette at shorter settings. It also works as a full frame fisheye on crop sensor bodies at 10mm, with diminishing effects at longer zoom settings. The Tokina 12-24 will fill the frame of the EOS 3 (or 5D) from 24mm down to about 16-17mm. Vignetting occurs at shorter focal lengths. I've never used one, but others confirm that Sigma's 10-20 lens can be used on full frame cameras down to about 12mm without severe vignetting. They are all safe to use. It's modified Canon EF-S lenses that may not be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
