![]() ![]() There are few full frame ultra wide angle zoom lenses available with an aperture this wide.Ĭanon and Nikon have them, Tamron and Sigma do not.Īnd the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM Lens is the only (APS-C) zoom lens with a wider aperture.Ī wide aperture allows more light to reach the sensor, making the lens a good choice for stopping movement in low light and for creating a stronger background blur. The f/2.8 aperture is a very strong feature of this lens. This angle of view covers just more than the wider half of what I typically recommend for APS-C general purposes lenses.ĪPS-C owners have a much broader lens selection covering at least most of this range available to choose from including some f/2.8 options, making the 16-28 a harder sell to this group. On an ASP-C/1.6x FOVCF sensor format DSLR camera, the 16-28mm range frames like a full frame 25.6-44.8mm lens. Here is a pair of focal length comparisons:Īs an overall range, 16-28 does not impress.Īs an addition to a 24mm-something general purpose lens, 16mm very much impresses. Perhaps an interior architect photographer could do this same.īut the ultra-wide angle 16-28mm range will far more typically complement a general purpose zoom lens in most people's kits. Perhaps a wide angle-only landscape photographer could make this range work as their sole lens. Usually, the focal length range of a lens should be the starting criteria for your selection process.Ī sub 2x focal length range is not going to garner too much excitement, but for most people, unless they specialize in a certain genre of photography, a 16-28mm focal length range is not going to be the only lens in their kit. This is a solidly-built lens with a heft, thanks to the large amount of glass required by this design. That this lens is full-frame-compatible adds greatly to its desirability. The Tokina 16-28mm f/2.8 AT-X Pro FX Lens is an affordable, ultra wide angle lens with an also-ultra wide f/2.8 aperture available over the entire focal length range.
