    Overview

    The Tokina AT-X 80-200mm f/2.8 is a solidly built, all-metal lens with a push-pull zoom and focus ring, praised for its rugged construction and value. Optically, it delivers good contrast and colors, but is soft at f/2.8, sharpening when stopped down to f/4. Some users report autofocus hunting in low light. It suits budget-conscious photographers seeking a fast telephoto zoom, especially for video where softness is less critical.
