Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Klaus - 09-13-2016 http://www.tokinalens.com/news/press/N0000064 Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Brightcolours - 09-13-2016 That makes me wonder if Nikon is planning a FF mirrorless camera. Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Klaus - 09-13-2016 Quote:That makes me wonder if Nikon is planning a FF mirrorless camera. What has this to do with Nikon? Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Brightcolours - 09-13-2016 Tokina always has been very Nikon oriented. (maybe because it was formed by ex-Nikon people). So, I wonder if maybe Nikon will bring a FF mirrorless camera. Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Klaus - 09-13-2016 I din't think they can afford this approach. They have to go where the money is. Sony users don't seem to mind paying a hell of a lot so it's reasonable to entertain them. Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - JJ_SO - 09-13-2016 And Tokina is Irish? Quote: Or the Irish have a century-old tradition of grinding lenses? Just nobody noticed? Because they want to throw more tax-money away attract other manufacturers to cook their glass with Irish turf? Sorry, reading stupid marketing farts makes me always try if there could be even more stupid ideas in the same direction. This time it was close... If I read what the usual suspects suspect to be presented from Nikon at photokina, it's pretty much only dust: http://nikonrumors.com/2016/09/11/what-to-expect-from-nikon-at-photokina.aspx/#more-106886 Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - youpii - 09-13-2016 I don't mind manual focus, but I don't get why Tokina would go that way. Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - JJ_SO - 09-13-2016 Because every "wannabe a High-End manufacturer" does it. Zeiss, Samyang, Tamron, Laowa, Irix... manual focus is only for the very coolest photogs B) they have a hard time to find mattescreens but hey, who cares? hardcore creativity doesn't need to be sharp. Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Brightcolours - 09-13-2016 Tamron has MF lenses? FE mount cameras have matte focus screens? Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE announced - Rover - 09-13-2016 Maybe that means they admitted their defeat in creating a modern autofocus mechanism for lenses... |
