Hi Roger and all.
This is your oppinion about this zoom over 135mms...
But if you try the Tok. zoom on 200 or 210mms, you can verify a complet
disaster.
I say this because I think the "SD" is for a good work mainly on the 180-200
mms focal range.
Two years ago I have done a complet test over this little Tokina zoom vs Oly
and Nik. lenses because the compact Tokina zoom is very atractive for travel
light, but I can see on the tests that the Tok. lens is a zoom very
different. (Very worse).
If you can to renounce the 200 mms,try the Zuiko 70-150, a very best lens.
You´ll have a very good (not excellent) 85-100-135mm lens shooting on f
8-11-16.
Best from Spain.
Ángel Lobo.
