Tokina atx-i 100mm F/2.8 FF Macro Lens - Nikon

ATX-I-AFM100FFN

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO lens is a versatile and compact medium tele macro lens suitable for full frame format film and digital SLR cameras. Its lightweight build, fast aperture, and beautiful soft bokeh make it a great tool for macro, portraits, landscapes, street art, commercial, and general purpose shooting.

With two aspherical glass elements and two Super-Low Dispersion glass elements, the lens minimizes distortion and manages spherical aberration and astigmatism, achieving excellent edge-to-edge resolution and contrast for both still and video shooting. Light fall-off at all focal lengths is also well-controlled.

The lens features a 55mm filter thread on the front that extends during focusing, but does not rotate, allowing the use of different filters, including polarizers, 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.

The direction of the manual focusing ring matches the proprietary direction of Nikon and Canon lenses.

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO Nikon F mount is equipped with manual aperture ring based on Ai AF Nikkor D-Type* lens standard that allows to use this lens with wide variety of cameras including old Nikon film cameras.

Tokina developed the atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO not just only for macro shooting. Challenge yourself in distant landscapes by using 100mm focal length to capture interesting object in the foreground and beautiful compressed landscape scenery in the background. The lens was designed for this shooting genre by realizing impressive color rendering and high resolution abilities.

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO incorporates all the necessary features and provides all the main advantages for dedicated macro shooters. The lens is capable of life-sized (1:1) reproduction at 30 cm. This allows photographers to have a little working distance from the subject and still obtain impressive magnification. Having some working distance is important when shooting easily startled subjects such as insects.

Designed for full frame sensors, the focal length equivalent on a DSLR with an APS-C sensor turns to 150mm on Nikon camera and 160mm on Canon. This gives an advantage of shooting macro with 1.5x-1.6x larger magnification than a full frame camera.

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F/2.8 AF Macro Lens comes with a full Australian warranty.
