As this article is already old, i would just like to add a comment about the Tokina 20-35mm. First i didnt know which version I had, as i thought it was the 2nd version, while it has a orange ring.
While there are 2 versions of the 20-35mm 1:3.5-4.5,
and BOTH have the orange ring in front.
Now im the owner of both versions, and can tell the differences.
1.The differences are: 72mm (first version) vs 77mm (second version).
2.The older version has a DOF scale, while the II doesnt have this.
3.And the older version the front element rotates, where the IInd version doesnt.
I hope you can now easily notice the difference between these 2.
optical differnce i dont know, i didnt run a test.
