Awesome lens for landscapes and portriots and semi close ups. This is my first experience with a lens with a 20-35 range. I found this lens to be awesome. I am not a pro but find my photos to be crisp and clear with little distortion. I use this lens with my canon 6D full frame camera for a winning combination. The build quality is as great as the pictures I get. The cost used at a little over $300. Was well worth the money. This is my walk around lens and I am happy with it. I read several reviews on this lens before buying it. They were mostly good reviews.

I like tokina pro lenses Have a few tokina for ff Sony. This is nice and wide for ff. Range limited on APS cameras. Mine needed focus tuning in camera -10/20. A99 then focuses fast and consistently, much better than on an older Sony a55.

go to this lens has become a go to along with my 50mm. i use this focal length for just about anything and this is definitely a great lens for value price. it isn’t the sharpest lens I’ve used, but does the job nicely and don’t regret purchasing by any means.
