Hello,
I would just like to know whether the "Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8 ATX Pro DX II Lens for Nikon APS-C (DX) Digital SLR Cameras" works well with the Nikon D5500 DSLR
Anne A.
Hi! Are you shopping for a lens today?
that lens works great with the D5500!
I am mainly worried about having the auto focusing work
Anne A.
it will work.
there is an older Tokina 11-16 that won't focus, but this version will.
great thank you!
have you heard any complaints about the lens?
Anne A.
I really haven't
I have this lens myself
it's very wide and not a lot of distortion
i use it for night photography a lot
thats awesome, I want it for hikes & sunset shots
Anne A.
it is great for that!
last question - how often does a lens like this happen to be on sale?
Anne A.
it goes on sale occasionally, but I haven't seen it on sale for a while now
would you be interested in a used lens?
i would prefer to buy a new one anyway
Anne A.
you do get a longer warranty that way :-)
