Tokina ATX-I 100MM f/2.8 Macro Lens - Canon

Ideal for close-up subjects, the Tokina atx-i 100mm f/2.8 FF Macro Canon EF Mount is a short telephoto macro lens, offering a life-size, 1:1 maximum magnification along with an 30 cm minimum focusing distance. This lens uses a flat-field optical design to yield realistic rendering, void of field curvature, as well as high sharpness and clarity throughout the focusing range. A multilayered coating has also been applied to reduce lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and improved color fidelity. Complementing the optics, this lens features a One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism for fast changing between AF and MF settings, and a focus range limiter switch helps to achieve faster focusing performance at close-up distances.

Key Features of the Tokina ATX-I 100MM f/2.8 Macro Lens - Canon

• This short-telephoto prime is designed for full-frame Canon EF-mount cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 160mm equivalent focal length.
• True macro design affords a life-size 1:1 maximum magnification along with an 30 cm minimum focusing distance to suit photographing close-up subjects.
• Flat-field optical design helps to greatly reduce field curvature in order to realize consistent, edge-to-edge sharpness and illumination throughout the aperture and focusing ranges.
• Multilayered coating helps to alleviate lens flare and ghosting when working in strong lighting conditions.
• Autofocus system offers fast, precise focusing capabilities and a One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism avails quick switching between autofocus and manual focus settings by either pushing or pulling the focus ring. When set to manual, focus response is especially smooth and benefitted by hard stops at the ends of the focusing range.
• Focus range limiter switch can lock the focusing range to a macro range for faster close-up focusing and to avoid unnecessary AF hunting.
• Extending lens barrel does not rotate in order to retain the ability to work with polarizing and graduated filter types.
• Nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Optical Performance

To achieve an exceptional optical performance demanded for ultra wide angle zoom lens in still and video shooting purposes, two aspherical glass elements and two Super-Low Dispersion glass elements were used in order to minimize distortion, manage spherical aberration and astigmatism while achieving excellent edge-to edge resolution and contrast of the entire image. Great efforts were done to control light fall-off at all focal lengths.

Mechanics

The front of the lens has a 55mm filter threads which extends during the focusing but does not rotate. This allows different filters including polarizers to be used for landscape or product photography. A focus range limiter switch on the side of the lens locks the lens focus into or out of the macro focusing range to avoid excessive AF hunting.
