Tokina Cinema 16-28mm T3 Lens for Sony E-Mount

The Tokina Cinema 16-28mm T3.0 FX Lens for Sony E Mount [1628CINEFXE] is almost a necessity for the professional. These super wide-angle zoom lenses have 15 elements in 13 groups, using aspherical and SD super-low dispersion glass elements to reduce chromatic aberration and give maximum resolution.

The silent DC motor allows the lens to focus quickly and quietly and works with a GMR magnetic AF sensor to increase AF speed even more. An exclusive One-Touch Focus Clutch mechanism allows switching quickly between autofocus and manual focus by snapping the focus ring forward for AF and back toward the camera for manual focus. And, it's possible to buy this lens without applying for a mortgage first.

Professional 16-28mm F/2.8 Lens

Designed for professional full-frame (FX) Canon DSLRs.

NEW Silent DC Motor With GMR Sensor

The 16-28 f/2.8 uses a newly developed silent DC motor that allows the lens to focus faster and more quietly than previous generations. The DC motor coupled with a new GMR magnetic AF sensor work together to increase AF Speed. Aspherical and Super-Low Dispersion Glass Elements A new, 56mm-diameter, large size aspherical glass element is incorporated into the front lens group, while there are 2 more aspherical elements in the rear group. 3 SD super-low dispersion glass elements are also incorporated throughout the optical design to reduce chromatic aberration, give maximum resolution, more even brightness and distortion correction.

One-Touch Focus Clutch

Tokina's exclusive One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism allows the photographer to switch between AF and MF simply by snapping the focus ring forward for AF and back toward the camera to focus manually. There is no second AF/MF switch on the lens for Canon, everything is accomplished with the focus ring.

Go super-wide to capture more scene per frame

The highly innovative Tokina Cinema 16-28mm T3.0 has been engineered to meet the demanding needs of the professional cinematographer. Using the successful optical formula of the award-winning still lens, Tokina engineers have created a lens that is Parfocal, has dramatically reduced breathing and image shift, and a de-clicked, 9-bladed, curved iris for beautiful bokeh and precise exposure control. With its 28cm close-focus capability, the lens allows you the freedom to capture a super wide angle of view while still maintaining a tight perspective on your subject.
