    Overview

    The Angenieux 28-70mm f/2.6 is a fast, all-metal zoom lens built for Canon, Minolta, and Nikon AF cameras, intended to compete with professional zooms. Optical tests at the time showed it was 'THAT good', but its high price limited sales. Its design was later inherited by Tokina for the AT-X 287 series. The lens suits enthusiasts who value solid construction and a wide aperture, though its cost and rarity may deter casual users.
