Based on widely popular Tokina AT-X M100 PRO D Macro model atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO is redesigned and optimized for contemporary full-format DSLR cameras with still photographers and video content creators’ demands in mind.

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO is a compact medium tele macro lens for full frame format film and digital SLR cameras. Being light-weight, compact, performing high resolution, fast aperture, low distortion, low falloff and beautiful soft bokeh this lens is extremely attractive tool for macro, portraits, landscapes, street art, commercial and general purpose shooting.

The optical design of Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF MACRO features zero curvature of field and extremely low distortion while maintaining super high resolution across the entire image along with low falloff and perfectly controlled chromatic aberration. Multi-coating applied to optical elements effectively control flare and ghosting.

The One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism makes switching from AF to manual focus (MF) simple. While in AF mode the user only needs to snap the focus ring back toward the camera to engage “real” manual focus control. This gives photographers an authentic tactile MF feel with hard stops on either side of the focus range like traditional manual lenses. Additionally, the directional rotation of the focus ring matches the direction of proprietary Nikon and Canon lenses.

The front of the lens has a 55mm filter threads which extends during the focusing but does not rotate. This allows different filters including polarizers to be used for landscape or product photography.

A focus range limiter switch on the side of the lens locks the lens focus into or out of the macro focusing range to avoid excessive AF hunting.

Specs

• EDGE-TO-EDGE SHARPNESS: The constant f/2.8 aperture lens provides excellent edge-to-edge sharpness and resolution
• IDEAL CHOICE FOR GIMBAL WORK: Popular among cinematographers too, because the lens provides a wide cinematic feel, minimized breathing, no edge distortion while panning, and the overall weight and internal focus design makes it an ideal choice for gimbal work
• ONE-TOUCH FOCUS CLUTCH MECHANISM: The One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism makes switching from AF to manual focus (MF) simple. While in AF mode the user only needs to snap the focus ring back toward the camera to engage real manual focus control
• COMPLEX OPTICAL DESIGN: Incorporates a complex optical design, with 13 elements in 11 groups. Using 2 aspherical lenses including a large aspherical P-MO element and 2 all-glass molded Low-Dispersion (SD) elements, the lens effectively suppresses chromatic and spherical aberrations
• MINIMAL EXPOSURE VIGNETTING: The front element provides super-low distortion and low light fall-off for straight lines and minimal exposure vignetting

Q&A

I want put a slider onto the tripod and it requires me taking off the fluid head to put on the slider, How do I remove the fluid head?

How does your slider attach? The FM18 head has a 1/4 20 and a 3/8 16 thread on its own quick release plate.If you need to remove the head you must unscrew the rubber handle which hangs between the legs. Once this is remove the head can be removed with the ball claw attached to it. There will be some allen screws on the bottom of the ball claw... you can also remove these if necessary.

What is the size of the screw that attaches the camera to the quick release plate; 1/4 or a 3/8 ?

The screw is the standard tripod mount, 1/4 - 20. (1/4 inch, 20 thread per inch). Hope this helps. It's a great tripod.

Is this a true fluid head?

it sure feels like it. I've found it to always have good motion.

The rubber feet of the tripod is appropriate for use on the ground or in the sand?

This tripod will work well on firm ground. If you are using it in the mud or sand I would recommend placing it on something to keep it out of the mud or sand. You can use small squares of plywood, floor tiles also work well. This will keep your tripod stable and clean.
