Comfortable to hold, its compact design balances size and weight expertly.

Visionary optical and mechanical technologies

Tokina incorporates visionary optical and mechanical technologies that make a difference you can see. These are:

Optical technologies

super Low Dispersion (SD) properties that control chromatic aberrations
a unique multi-coating technique for faithful colour reproduction and clean, sharp images
aspherical optics that focuses light rays entering from both the centre and the edges of the glass elements correctly, ultimate correcting spherical aberration
F&R aspherical moulded glass elements for even illumination and the correction of spherical aberration across the entire image area

Mechanical technologies

a floating element system that moves in proportion to the focus setting of the lens, thereby correcting astigmatism from minimum focus distance to infinity
an internal focus system supporting a more compact design with improved handling, faster focusing, and superior filter use as the barrel with the filter thread does not rotate as you focus
the patented Focus Clutch Mechanism where the manual focusing ring can easily move (be snapped) back and forth between AF and MF position.
the refined One-Touchuch Focus Clutch Mechanism (incorporated in the AT-X 28-80mm AT-X PRO) that allows the lens focus ring to snap back to the MF position at any time, and from any position
