The Tokina opera 16-28mm is a full-frame compatible wide-angle zoom lens designed to get the best from high-end cameras. Its premium optical construction includes 3 aspherical elements, including 1 special P-MO type, plus 3 glass low-dispersion elements. This helps control aberrations and distortion while maintaining excellent sharpness across all focal lengths. The flexible zoom range covers a popular spread of wide-angle views, from the ultra-wide 16mm through to the more traditional 28mm.

Because of the bulb-shaped front element, screw-on filters cannot be used with this lens. In return, it delivers very low light falloff and minimal distortion. A constant f/2.8 maximum aperture is available throughout the zoom range, making it ideal for handheld shooting and attractive background blur. The fast, accurate AF system of the Tokina opera 16-28mm f/2.8 FF lens is well suited to both moving and stationary subjects.
