1. Tokina atx-i 11-16mm f/2.8 Plus Canon EF-S
The Tokina atx-i 11-16mm F2.8 CF (CF stands for Cropped Frame) is designed as an ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for DSLR cameras with APS-C sensors. It is the only fast ultra-wide-angle zoom lens with a maximum aperture of 2.8 for DSLR cameras with APS-C sensors currently available on the market. The useful focal length of 11-16 mm has been chosen to position this lens as a straightforward upgrade to standard zoom lenses or as an entry-level wide-angle zoom lens. A constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the entire zoom range allows for excellent results in low light conditions, control over depth of field, and easy manual shooting, while maintaining a reasonable size and weight for the lens.

2. Tokina SZ Super Tele 500mm f/8 Reflex MF Sony E-Mount
The Tokina SZ Super Tele 500mm F8 Reflex MF is a 500mm super telephoto lens that features a catadioptric design with a constant aperture of F8. This lens offers a compact alternative to standard telephoto lenses, as more and more photographers are seeking easily transportable equipment. Aimed at active travel photographers who capture landscapes, wildlife, or birds outdoors, the 500mm F8 Reflex MF has been developed as a compact and lightweight mirror lens—a type of lens that is being rediscovered in the era of compact yet high-tech mirrorless cameras.
Mirror lenses are telephoto lenses that incorporate a combination of lenses and mirrors to reflect light back and forth between the ends of the lens. This structure folds the light and halves the length of the tube. As a result, the physical size of the lens is about one-third that of a conventional lens, allowing for a lightweight housing since the mirrors are much lighter than optical glass.

5. Tokina AT-X 14-20 F2 PRO DX - Nikon
The Tokina AT-X 14-20 F2 PRO DX is a wide-angle zoom lens with an incredibly fast aperture of F2. This is the fastest lens Tokina has ever produced. The lens is designed for use with Canon or Nikon DSLR cameras featuring APS-C (DX) sensors.
Tokina expands its family of wide-angle zoom lenses with a large aperture with the fastest lens to date, aimed at providing photographers with professional optical quality and construction at an affordable price.

The super bright, constant aperture of F2.0 allows for viewing, autofocus, and shooting in very low light conditions while still maintaining a reasonable size and weight.
The 14-20 mm features a completely new proprietary optical design that utilizes three aspherical lens elements (two molded glass and one P-MO lens). This combination achieves superior contrast and sharpness while correcting spherical aberrations. Additionally, Tokina employs four SD glass elements (Super-low Dispersion: FK01 and FK03) to control chromatic aberrations, distortions, and astigmatism. Two of the elements are SD glass molded aspherical lenses.
Tokina's exclusive One-Touch Focus Clutch mechanism allows photographers to easily switch between autofocus and manual focus by pushing the focus ring forward for autofocus and backward toward the lens mount for manual focus. The lens is also designed to withstand the demands of everyday use by photographers in a variety of shooting conditions and environments.
