Review on πŸ“· TOKINA ATX-i 11-16mm F2.8 Nikon F: Superior Wide-Angle Lens for Astounding Photography by Fred Griffin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent wide angle lens for close-up shots

I mounted this lens on my Gh5 using a viltrox EF-MII 0.71x adapter, so my review is for this setup only and not a real Canon camera. At first I wanted to return the lens but was reluctant as the wide angle was so amazing with the subject focus point within 4ft, but the lens did not focus to infinity leaving a lot of blur after about 7ft. Sad face. I watched this video and did the surgery on the lens. It now focuses at infinity to make it worth buying. Not sure if it didn't work properly initially because of my adapter or not, but the head screws in the video were set to Nikon's standard position and this lens is advertised as a cannon EF lens, so what? The autofocus is also flawed. on my setup but the manual control works well for this lens, it just works great with a wide angle.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Quality
