Tokina AT-X 24-70mm f/2.8 PRO FX Nikon lens review: Top performer

Fast aperture and ultrasonic autofocusOffering many pro and enthusiast photographers a versatile focal range, with a fixed f/2.8 maximum aperture, it’s an ideal “work-horse” lens for weddings, events, portraits, and press, as well as for general-use photography. There’s plenty of market competition, however, both with Nikon own-brand options as well as with third-party manufacturers such as Tamron and Sigma offering pro-grade alternatives. The Tokina 24-70mm f/2.8 falls squarely into this pro category, offering solid build quality, as well as an ultrasonic autofocus motor and Tokina’s unique manual focus clutch system.Optical construction features 15 elements in 11 groups,
