Features

  • F-Mount Lens/DX Format. 16.5-30mm (35mm Equivalent)
  • Aperture Range: f/2.8 to f/22. P-MO & Glass-Molded Aspherical Elements
  • Three SD Ultra-Low Dispersion Elements. Multi-Layer Lens Coatings

Description

A versatile wide-angle zoom for Nikon DX-format DSLRs, the AT-X 11-20mm f/2.8 PRO DX Lens from Tokina offers a 16.5-30mm equivalent focal length and features a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture for maintained brightness throughout the zoom range. One P-MO hybrid aspherical element and two glass- molded aspherical element work in tandem to minimize distortions and control various aberrations while three SD ultra-low dispersion elements reduce chromatic aberrations for increased clarity. A multi-layer lens coating has also been applied to further enhance overall light transmission and color accuracy by suppressing lens flare and ghosting. Well-suited to working in a wide variety of situations, this ultra-wide zoom covers an array of wide-angle perspectives while maintaining consistent illumination for working in challenging lighting. Benefitting the usability, a one-touch focusing clutch permits quick switching between autofocus and manual focus modes, and an internal focusing design maintains the overall length of the lens during use. The medium-torque focusing ring further benefits precise handling by allowing for refined control when manually focusing. Additionally, this lens sees the incorporation of a nine-blade diaphragm, which contributes to a pleasing out- of-focus quality when employing shallow depth of field shooting techniques. Compatible with Nikon DX-format DSLRs, this wide-angle zoom provides a 16.5-30mm equivalent focal length and features a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture for consistent low-light performance throughout the zoom range.

  • Tokina 11-20 f2.8 is a good performer...
Firstly, I have also owned the Tokina 11-16 f2.8 (first version without focus motor) and the Tokina 12-28 f4. I found the 11-16 too limiting in zoom range and replaced it with the 12-28. The 11-16 was always extremely sharp at all focal lengths and apertures, but also had a lot of flare. The 12-28 was less sharp and needed to be stopped down to about f5.6 to be as sharp as the 11-16 was wide open. It also exhibited quite a bit of flare. When this lens came out, I felt it was time to part with the 12-28, and get back to a faster and wider lens. It is nice to have the faster aperture and still have a reasonable zoom range. The lens has been very good so far, with some things improved and a couple of things I would consider a little worse. I am shooting with the D7100 currently (and D810 - see below for opinion on use with FX). The lens is very, very sharp, in much the same way that the 11-16 was. Build quality is superb, and the zoom ring feels just right - not too stiff, not too loose. I am neutral to the manual focus clutch operation. It works fine, but is really no better or worse than using a switch. Focus is adequately fast and locks on positively, with no hunting. And lens flare has been reduced by a lot! Neither the 11-16 or the 12-28 handled flare well, but this new lens is night and day better in this regard. Very little visible flare on several shots I have intentionally tried to get it. The added zoom range is a very nice feature and makes the lens more versatile. I did mention there were some negatives compared to its older cousins: There is more fringing with this lens than with either of the other two I previously owned. Even stopped down, the purple and green fringing in high contrast edges is fairly pronounced. I would recommend using Lightroom, or other software to correct chromatic abberation and fringing. I'm sure once there is a lens profile in Lightroom, it will be even easier to correct. I can make the shots look just fine with very little effort, even without a profile. The corners look to be a little bit softer further into the image with the 11-20, and stay just a tad soft even stopped down. But we're talking the very extreme corners once you get around f5 or so. Wide open, more of the corner area is slightly smeared and soft, and some slight vignetting is noticeable, too. The 11-16 did a little better, but I feel this is an acceptable trade-off since we now have more zoom range to work with. The lens uses 82mm filters, which may be a drawback to some, but is not an issue for me, as I already have another lens that uses them (Tamron 24-70 VC). I wanted to give some information on use of this lens with a full frame camera, since I also own and use one, and actually used my other Tokina lenses on the D810 and my previous D700. The 11-16 would work just fine from 15-16 mm, with the only requirement being to remove the lens hood at 15mm. 16mm was usable even with the hood in place. The 12-28 worked from 20mm to 28mm, with 20-21mm needing the hood removed. The 11-20 is also able to be used on FX, with the usable range being 18-20. Won't go as wide as the old 11-16. And if soft and somewhat vignetted corners are OK, 17mm also works (barely) without the lens hood. I'd recommend the lens hood stay off for anything other than 20mm use, and even then, you would do better to leave it off if possible. One thing to note is that no shot taken on a full frame camera will be as sharp in the corners as the DX ones will be. I've noticed that even though the image circle gets big enough for the FX sensor by 17mm or so, the far corners stay soft and smeared even at 20mm. Stopping down helps very little here. It is still nice that it can be used with both my cameras, though, and I have already taken some really nice looking 36mp shots with the 11-20 on my D810. I'm sure that 1.2x crop mode on the D810 will increase the usability and performance since the worst part of the image is cropped off. I plan to test that out as well, I just don't see the point in shooting 25MP with the D810 when I have 24MP already, and full use of the zoom, with my D7100. High ISO shooting is the only scenario I can see any meaningful advantage. Overall, this is a nice lens to own, and I am glad to have it. It improves on the 12-28, and is just as good or better in most regards as the 11-16 was, with few compromises. If you are looking for an ultra-wide lens, this one is definitely recommended. Tokina makes a great lens for the price, and this one is no exception. Would give it 4.5 stars if possible, but can't quite give it 5 since there are some very minor issues. I think anyone with high expectations would be more than satisfied with the results. Edit, June 16, 2015: I have a better understanding of the use of this lens on FX cameras, now that I have done more shooting with the D810 and Tokina 11-20 combination. I would now recommend the focal length be set at 16mm (and no lens hood), even if you don't need it that wide for the shot. After inspecting images at focal lengths from 15-20mm, it looks like the 16mm setting is the best one to use. 16mm is the point where there is just about zero vignetting. Interestingly, the corners are about as soft at 16mm as they are at 20mm. They really get no better as you zoom in, as I mentioned in the initial review. That is why I say shoot at 16mm and crop off whatever is not sharp enough. You will end up with the most usable image this way. You will find that you must crop off a similar amount from a 20mm shot, leaving you with less to work with. I have added 2 images to my review. The canyon shot was taken with the D810 at 16mm (and not cropped) and the river shot is a D7100 shot at 11mm. Pretty impressive sharpness when used on either camera...you just must crop the full frame shot for edge-to-edge sharpness. ... show more

  • An excellent medium weight travel lens for the DX shooter.
This lens has a lot going for it and even though it isn't cheap the performance is very good for the price. It is in my opinion an excellent performer especially for the landscape photographer who is working with a DX sensor and I purchased it as a lens to satisfy the wide angle end of travel and landscape photography. My other lenses for this purpose are a brace of lightweight Nikon prime lenses with this lens filling in where at least another two primes (if light weight ones were available) would be required. The performance on the edges at F2.8 is a little soft at (33 lpmm) but in the centre at that aperture it is very good with a resolution of 45-50 lpmm across the whole zoom range. Once stopped down to f 5.6 the edge performance is very sharp with the centre being razor sharp at around 55 lpmm. Peak performance is at f8.0 with the lens holding up very well even at f11.0 with diffraction taking it's toll at f16.0. The great thing is that the performance across the entire zoom range is very consistent at all apertures. The AF is speedy enough for me but can tend to front focus a little on my D5500 although once below 16mm the impact on image quality is hard to see. Using the manual focus with the focus indicator in the viewfinder seems to be more accurate especially if moving from near to far focus turning the focus ring . There is plenty of range to manual focus correctly and the ring turns very smoothly. As regards the 82 mm filter thread size I have so far briefly tested the camera for vignetting with an 82-77mm reduction ring fitted and 77mm UV fitted and can report no evidence of vignetting on shots taken at focal lengths over 13mm or so. Even when set at 11 mm the vignetting with this set up is small. For most of my shots above I'd leave the filter thread reduction ring fitted for the extra protection that it affords the front element. Lateral CA's are far from perfect but with care can be largely removed with soft ware in post. The distortion is very low at 20, moderate(-0.75%) at 16mm with around -3.0% simple barrel distortion (easily corrected) apparent at 11 mm. My copy of this lens appears to be well centred according to the brick wall photo test. In summery this lens is great value for the DX shooter as it's f2.8 aperture allows for good AF in low light and very sharp performance across the frame over the entire zoom range when stopped down a little. This is a welcome change to the rather poor (and expensive) offerings from Nikon in this focal range for both primes and zooms designed for the DX shooter. ... show more

  • Stunning sharpness. A great compact, light, and more affordable alternative to the massive Nikon wide angle.
I am not a professional, just a hobby photographer. I do take thousands of pictures a year with my Nikons. I have rented the Nikon 14-28 many times for vacations, but it's just too pricey for me to justify purchase. Enter the Tokina. I watched some YouTube reviews and checked out sample photos, seemed like it was worth a try. This is my first non-Nikkor lens and I am pleasently surprised by the quality. To be frank, I was expecting less. I love this lens its much smaller and lighter than the the Nikon. I shoot mostly with a Nikon D7200 operating out of the hard bags on my motorcycle. So far the lens travels well, no issues. Pros: Image sharpness is stunning. No color aberration that I could detect at any stop or zoom. Smaller, lighter, and cheaper than the big Nikon. Low light performance is good. Cons: More prone to lens flare than the Nikon, the hood is smaller, aggravating the flare issue. When under flare conditions or shooting into direct sunlight, the auto-focus may be tricky. More distortion toward the edges than the Nikon, but this lens is wider. At the time of writing Adobe Lightroom (my tool of choice) doesn't have the Lens Correction filter for this Tokina yet, but does for the Nikon, so may not be a fair comparison. Pros here FAR outweigh the cons, in my opinion. I've used both, I've lugged that big Nikon all over the country, and am glad to have this lighter cousin in my kit. I would buy this lens again in a heartbeat. I have attached some photos I've taken with this lens. All samples have been post processed with Lightroom, but it will give you get the idea of the cameras capabilities and sharpness. ... show more
