I bought this for night sky photography but I've also been using it for landscape shots. This is my first wide angle lens and I was worried about getting this one over some other lenses I was looking at but I'm soooo glad I picked this one up.

Sharp as sword! Built like a tank! Ultra wide! Fast Aperture- F/2.8! Reasonable price! Made in Japan! What else you want?

I was a little concerned about buying my first non-Canon lens. But I had less money than I was concerned about not having a fancy red-ring. This lens is awesome. Great picture quality, fast-focus and... more great picture quality.

It is noted for its good processability. I bought it to take pictures from landscapes and northern lights and i don't regret it. The Lens works fine, and has a fabulous focal length. The autofocus is not as fast as other lenses like the SONY SAL1650 2.8 SSM but in most cases it doesn't matter.

I actually went by the Review that Mr. Devesh Uba had posted and since I was looking for a Wide Angle Lens, I decided to go with this based on some other reviews as well. I got it today and was very happy with the Lens. Not used it much but I am sure it will serve my purpose in times to come.

I have been using this lens for the past 5 months and i must say its really really good lens. If you really miss the wide angle and love to do landscapes astro and timelapses photography then this is the lens . Pros. 1. Constant wide aperture of 2.8 ranging from 11-16mm focal. 2.

The Tokina 11-16mm DXII is a superb lens with solid construction. It is extremely fast at F/2.8 and therefore works well in low light conditions. The photos are sharp and clear. Definitely a good buy.

Durable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Strong Construction

Crop sensor DSLR users cannot do better than the the Tokina AT-X 116 Pro DX-II 11-16mm lens. It was one of my favorite lenses when I was shooting am APS-C Nikon body and I was sorry to see it go when I made the jump to full frame.

This lens is super wide and seems to take very sharp pictures. Limited range, but I highly recommend this lens.

Great lens, I use it mostly for astrophotography and landscape. Good price for a versatile and sharp lens.
