Tokina Opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF Full-Frame Lens (2019)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Tokina opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF is a full-frame ultra-wide zoom lens for Canon EF-mount and Nikon F-mount cameras. Part of Tokina's opera series designed for photographic artists, the opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF optimizes optical performance in an ergonomic design.
Covering the 16-28mm zoom range, the opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF provides a field of view ideal for landscape, architecture, city, and night photography. Tokina has endowed this lens with its One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism that allows the photographer to switch between autofocus and manual focus by snapping the focus ring.
As a tradeoff, the opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF comes with a bulbous front element that prevents the use of a traditional filter.
