Sold the 17-40 a few months ago and to pick up this tokina while in HK.  I like the f2.8, and the color seems a bit more rich with Tokina.  

But it is a big freaking heavy lens to make it less practical to carry around.  It seems the 17-40 makes more sense. Will, live and learn.

Yeah... Good ga...Tokina! Nice range too...can match up with 24-105 or 28-135 as carry around combo.

Cheap to buy in HK too...

Tokina lens is good except chromatic aberration...

哇隻鏡既重量同 Canon 隻2470有得揮。
我之前都有T116又係好重，焦段太短賣左。

Man .. both 116 and 1628 are reasonable compact and well balance ...  compare to 1424 ..

I also tried my bro's M9 with 35 f2, and a 50mm 1.4 made 50 yr ago.  Leica lens are like Rolex, and ours is casio.  Sweet.

But the M9 is nowhere as refined as their lens.  My brother's copy is actually broken as far as I know.  It maybe a firmware problem, but I expect it work 100% if I pay that kind of money. My photos were gone (don't know why), and shutter won't fire with some "error massage" The monitor is bad, some P&S camera had better monitors.  But boy, their lens are sweet.

is there and Leica to EOS adopter?

Catpiano

Oh no ..  Leica = rolex .. so .. mean every chinese has one? lol
