    Overview

    The Tokina AT-X 287 PRO SV AF 28-70mm f/2.8 is a budget-friendly fast zoom with solid build quality, featuring all-metal construction. Optical performance is soft and lacks contrast at f/2.8, but sharpens significantly from f/4 onward. It is best suited for full-frame cameras; on APS-C the 42-105mm equivalent range is less versatile. The lens is heavy (around 720g) but compact. It offers good value used under $250, ideal for portrait or general use on FX bodies.
