Professional High-Speed Ultra-Wide Zoom for Full-Frame DSLRs
The Tokina AT-X 16-28mm f/2.8 Pro FX is a heavy-duty, ultra-wide-angle zoom lens meticulously engineered for professional-level Nikon F-mount DSLRs with full-frame (FX) sensors. Serving as an essential tool for landscape, architectural, and photojournalism professionals, this high-speed zoom pairs an incredibly expansive field of view with a bright, constant f/2.8 maximum aperture.
Its optical design incorporates a massive front aspherical element alongside Tokina’s specialized Super-Low Dispersion (SD) glass to eliminate aberrations and deliver extreme edge-to-edge sharpness. Driven by a fast, magnetic-sensor-backed DC motor and outfitted with Tokina’s iconic One-Touch Focus Clutch, this pro-tier lens offers premium performance and bulletproof reliability without the steep price tag of native equivalents. Please note: This lens is in excellent working order and comes complete with front and rear caps along with the built-in permanent lens hood.
Key Features & Engineering
Constant f/2.8 Professional Aperture: The bright, fixed f/2.8 maximum aperture guarantees consistent brightness and exposure settings across the entire 16-28mm zoom range, facilitating excellent low-light shooting and precise depth-of-field control.
Advanced Aspherical & SD Glass Formula: Built with 15 elements in 13 groups, featuring a massive, 56mm-diameter precision aspherical glass element in the front group and two additional aspherical elements in the rear. Three Super-Low Dispersion (SD) elements are strategically positioned to eliminate chromatic aberrations, maximize resolving power, and correct geometric distortion.
Silent DC Motor with GMR Magnetic Sensor: Utilizes a high-torque silent DC autofocus motor coupled to an advanced GMR (Giant Magnetoresistive) magnetic AF sensor. This hardware combination reads data with extreme precision, yielding significantly faster and quieter autofocus performance compared to standard gear-driven systems.
Exclusive One-Touch Focus Clutch: Features Tokina’s signature mechanical focus ring clutch mechanism. Photographers can instantly snap the entire focus ring forward for Autofocus (AF), or pull it back toward the camera body to engage full manual focus (MF). This eliminates the need for secondary, finicky AF/MF toggle switches on the barrel.
Rugged Pro-Series Chassis: Designed with the legendary, rock-solid structural integrity of Tokina’s AT-X Pro lineup, utilizing heavy-duty barrels built to withstand rigorous daily professional field deployment.
