The Tokina 300mm F6.3 does register itself with the camera, so you shouldn't have to set the focal length for the IBIS to function at the correct focal length, but "just in case" I did set the...

After giving a bit more thought on why most of my photos using the Tokina 300mm F6.3 lens had so much blur shake, I decided to set the Anti-Shock to 1/8 sec and took a few sample shots later today....

Well... I don't own 10,000, but I do own more than 20 and feel that I have some ability in using them correctly. This Tokina is really a charmer based on looks and size, but using it will be chore...

I think you are mistaken if you think the lens wasn't focused properly, because I can assure you that it was. Had I used my Tamron 350mm F5.6 or Zuiko 500mm F8 the photos would have been sharper...

Great shots. The Zuiko 500/8 mirror is my second favorite mirror lens (the first being the Tamron 350mm F5.6). I have two copies of each. The focus seems to appear to lock in when viewing through...

meant "focus ring"... the fingers don't always type what the brain tells it.

No offense taken. I wasn't impressed either. Not a sharp lens when you compare it to a good mirror lens. The reason for the gallery was to show what it could/might do... and since I have quite an...

I like both shots. The first one more than the other. I used the Tamron 500mm F8 quite a bit and have both models, but once I picked up the Zuiko, that lens became my 500mm lens of choice. I was...

I added a few more photos after using this lens a bit more today while walking around the yard. Based on my initial usage, I would classify this as a very average mirror lens. Perhaps on the order...

Thought maybe someone might like to see the size of the Tokina 300mm F6.3 in comparison to other mirror lenses and a few other selected m43rds lenses. The above photo shows the new Tokina 300mm...

Took a small walk around the yard to capture these from the Tokina 300mm F6.3 lens on my E-P3. Nothing spectacular, but enough to show a bit of what the lens can do... and to again show some of the...

Mine arrived yesterday from B&H and it was dark by the time I got home, so not much to discuss. The lens does communicate its data to the camera, and when manual focusing the manual focus assist...

One went for $329 in EX condition at KEH a few weeks ago. Those on ebay are not worth what they are asking.

Yep, looking at your work makes me feel like such an amature... also makes me feel like I need to dust off my 70-300mm lens for a go.

Great color and captures. Not sure if you cropped them, but my preference would have been to use a bit more photo and to maybe open the f-stop a bit more to get a bit more in focus - not much more,...
