Tokina ATX-I 11-16mm f/2.8 CF Lens Plus – Nikon
The Tokina atx-i 11-16mm F2.8 CF Lens Plus – Nikon is designed as an ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C sensor DLSR cameras. It is the only f/2.8 fast ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C-sized DSLR cameras in the current market (according to an internal survey in September 2019).
The useful 11-16mm focal length is chosen to position this lens as an easily demanded gear after standard zoom lenses or initial wide-angle zoom lenses to start with.
A constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the entire zoom range is realized to achieve great results in low-light environments, for depth of field control and easy manual shooting, while maintaining a reasonable size and weight of the lens.

Optical Performance
To achieve an exceptional optical performance demanded ultra-wide-angle zoom lens in still and video shooting purposes, two aspherical glass elements and two Super-Low Dispersion glass elements were used to minimize distortion, and manage spherical aberration and astigmatism while achieving excellent edge-to-edge resolution and contrast of the entire image. Great efforts were made to control light fall-off at all focal lengths.
The anti-reflective multi-layer coating improves light transmission and minimizes reflections while water-repellent coating makes wiping and cleaning the surface of the front glass element easier.
Built Quality & Exterior Design
True to traditions, Tokina incorporated a lot of metal parts inside the lens for a reassuring built quality and long-term utilization in different shooting conditions.
The sophisticated exterior design is specifically developed to match the design of contemporary DSLR cameras.
Mechanics & Electronics
Precise attention was also paid to zoom and focus ring rotation which has a convenient amount with no play and made just enough tightly damped. The Tokina atx-i 11-16mm f/2.8 CF for Nikon F mount incorporates an internal silent focusing motor in combination with a precise GMR sensor to allow the lens to AF on Nikon bodies that do not have an AF drive gear and motor.
The highly valued One-touch focus Clutch mechanism allows you to switch between autofocus and manual focus easily. The overall length of the Tokina atx-i 11-16mm f/2.8 CF does not change when focusing and zooming thanks to the internal type of the focus construction
