opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF overview
The Tokina opera 16-28mm F2.8 FF is a 16–28mm f/2.8 zoom for full-frame cameras on Canon EF / EF-S and Nikon F, announced by Tokina in February 2019. 41 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits landscapes and interiors.
No store we track in Europe lists it today. It is listed in Australia.
Worth comparing it with the Tamron SP 15-30mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2, Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 DG HSM | Art and Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM.
