[Nikon AF-S 10-24mm ED DX] Ultra-Wide high-class

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

By Christian Lingenfelder Auber

The Nikon 10-24 triggers now from my Tokina 12-24.

My first photos show me that the money is well spent.

The main differences:

Next:
10 instead of 12 (probably real even 13mm) means 20-30% more distance. And gehts primarily at wide angle lenses.

No Backlight problem:
The Tokina was really bad “against the sun,” it collects in the bottom 12mm bold orange stain because unstop only helped partially up to 15 mm.

Better for the Cokin filter system capable of:
Currently I get the abridged Cokin P-frame 12mm Nikon at no shade. Be still a little fine-tuning. The Tokina was only 15mm. I will now hopefully the times Grauverlaufsfilter can use.

Otherwise, the 10-24 feels very similar to the 18-200 Nikkor.

Thanks AF-S can be any time the autofocus manually corrected.
The AF is fast, but also the Tokina was always top.

All in all a truly recommendable lens.

[Canon EF-S 10-22mm USM] Class Lens!

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

By Zaphod

A UWW stood from the beginning on my wishlist regarding purchases for the park Lens (Body is a EOS 450D). What it should be, because I was initially uncertain.

To choose the Sigma 10-20, the Tokina 12-24 and even the Canon.

From a Tamron, I was soon so far as I previously had little good to read. Against the Tokina spoke to me, despite the many tests certified very good imaging performance, the poorer the area fired over the Sigma and the Canon, especially in wide area, so I read, can be 2 mm is already quite a lot of his.

In the business behind and I could then compare the two. Since I have no price limit was set, I was soon clear that it would be the Canon.

From the middle imaging performance since both take very little (the Sigma is actually a bit sharper), but especially in the edge sharpness of the Canon can outdo the Sima. There’s still USM, even at low aperture numbers a very good sharpness, low vignetting and so?

A few months ago is the Tokina 11-16 f / 2.8 on the market. But here, too, tells me the very short focal length range is not really. The light with a open aperture of 2.8 for my purposes is not relevant. In addition, the lenses for UWW usual barrel distortion at the beginning of focal auszufallen here much more pronounced than the Canon. I would always draw back to Canon. The wide area, especially in architectural photography, is to become a real passion.
