    Overview

    The Tokina AF 28-200 mm f/3.5-5.6 is an all-purpose push-pull zoom lens for 35mm SLRs. It offers satisfactory sharpness, even at maximum zoom, and fast, accurate autofocus, though manual focus has a very short throw making precise setting difficult. Build is described as tight and resembling a black Russian doctor sausage in weight and thickness. Bokeh is typical, with some liking its doughnut-like quality. It suits users seeking an affordable, versatile superzoom for general photography, but may frustrate those needing precise manual focus.
