Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - Klaus - 02-18-2022 https://www.opticallimits.com/fuji_x/1135-tokina8f28x Yes, I am a fish-eye lover. ;-) RE: Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - Rover - 02-18-2022 Hey, I'm fond of these too. Too bad I no longer have (easy) access to that Tokina 10-17mm... This particular review did come completely out of the blue though. Not sure why Tokina would regress to doing fully manual lenses though - they've had all the tech for as long as one can remember. Re: the missing quality rating, I would say 2.5* tops because of the CA. One "correction" from me would be for the flare section: "but you can drive all lenses into driving some." RE: Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - Brightcolours - 02-18-2022 "Thus the offer for reviewing the new Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye was very welcomed." Very welcome, or welcomed (with open arms or other additions, depending what you want to say) "It's a fully manual, APS-C mount lens for X- and E-mount. " That comma is misplaced. "Fish-eye lenses aren't everybody's cookie" Not sure if this is an actual saying in English?

RE: Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - Klaus - 02-19-2022 I prefer cookies over tea ;-) FWIW, Tokina was so kind to provide this lens for testing prior to the announcement. RE: Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - Rover - 02-19-2022 Cookies go very well WITH tea. And now I know why the lens review appeared at the same time as the actual announcement. RE: Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - toni-a - 02-19-2022 Doesn't it look like a rebadged lens? Tokina could at least add aperture coupling and exif Although I recon autofocus with a 8mm fisheye is rather pointless except maybe at f2.8 At f5.6when focus point isn't set too close almost everything from 0.5 meters to infinity is in focus. That's what I actually do to shoot with my fisheye RE: Next OL lens test report - Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye - davidmanze - 02-19-2022 Not such a strange cookie after all !! |
