Yo Volkhart,
I have one. I do digitalize most of my pics nowadays, I even view them on my
computer screen (slide shows by courtesy of Graphic Converter) so I am not
qualified to quote lpi figures, but Tokina lenses are well made and the optical
quality is perfectly adequate. Remember, you make better pictures with a lens
you bring along with you than with one which may be theoretically superior but
stays at home. Admittedly, I use the Zuiko 35--105 more, as it does fit my
shooting habits better (when supplemented with a 24 somewhere in my pants!)
Vänliga hälsningar/Best regards
