Tokina AF 11-18mm f/2.8 atm-x for Fujifilm X Announced

Share

The Tokina AF 11-18mm f/2.8 atm-x lens for Fujifilm X mount has just been announced.

When Tokina launched their first Fujifilm X mount autofocus trinity, I was very skeptical and criticized their choice, as they looked like to be just a rebranded (and more expensive) version of the Viltrox X mount trinity.

And I guess many other people were disappointed just like me, so much so that non too long after, Tokina discontinued their first three X mount lenses.

But there was another APS-C lens launched by Tokina in 2022, that would have been way more interesting to have for X mount: the Tokina 11-18mmF2.8 for Sony E mount.

Well, the wait is now over, as Tokina has now launched the Tokina atx-m 11-18mmF2.8 X for Fujifilm X mount.

You can read the full press release below.

It’s competitors in this zoom and price range are the Sigma 10-18mmF2.8 DC DN X and the Tamron 11-20mmF2.8.

Tokina 11-18mmF2.8 Coming Tomorrow

Share

Tokina has published a teaser about a new lens coming tomorrow.

In our last article I asked you guys which lens you think this will be, and in the comments most agreed this would be the Tokina 11-18mm f/2.8 atx-m.

And your guess makes sense.

The Tokina AF 11-18mm f/2.8 atx-m is designed for APS-C and is already on the market for other mounts. So it just makes sense that it will now be soon available for Fujifilm X mount too.

It will be announced tomorrow according to the official teaser.

If you own third party autofocus lenses for Fujifilm X mount, make sure to join this group.
