Tokina has announced its first lens for Fujifilm X-mount, the atx-m 11-18mm F2.8 X. This is also the first super wide-angle zoom lens in Tokina’s line-up designed exclusively for mirrorless cameras.
The atx-m 11-18mm F2.8 X features a consistent f/2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range in a compact and lightweight body.Back in 2022, Tokina released the atx-m 11-18mm F2.8 for Sony E-mount APS-C and the Fujifilm mount version is very similar (note, however, that it gives a 16.5-27mm equivalent field of view on X-mount).
Other noteworthy features include two aspherical and two low-dispersion glass elements to suppress chromatic aberration and a minimum focusing distance of 19cm.
The lens offers full compatibility with Fujifilm X-mount cameras, including Image Stabilization, AF and MF, MF Assist mode, Eye Detection and optical corrections; there is also a Micro USB port for firmware updates.
The atx-m 11-18mm F2.8 X is aimed at both stills and video shooters and goes onsale from March 14th, costing a competitive £689/$699.
