I hope I am not revealing a secret, but there are already sample pictures at Photozone's Smugmug page.
Actually, I was thinking about buying the Tokina as a light-weight all-in-one macro normal prime. Now I will have to postpone the decision. The new 40mm paired with a D3100 would make an even smaller setup, since the Tokina requires a screw-driver camera.

Ah yes, interesting point... the D3100 is quite a bit more compact than the D90. Should be a very portable setup <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
I am using my Canon EF 35mm f2 with 12mm extension tube at the moment, which brings it to about 1:2. That Tokina was introduced just after I got that lens. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />
That Tokina will find itself in my collection at some point, looking forward to the review.
