Great shot Darrenleon! Good timing and I do like colours and composing too!

repaap · 02-27-2012, 01:54 PM

So, here is some from last days...

I have to say that this 235/2.8 Pro is not bad. I have shot with it through some film and I'm waiting for results...soon...

cbope · 02-28-2012, 12:42 PM

Nice ones repaap! I love shooting old buildings and doors, especially brick and wood. Might need to keep an eye out for a 235 Pro myself. Were these shot with your K-7?

repaap · 02-28-2012, 02:22 PM

Thanks cbope! Yeah, with my K-7. I think that this lens is quite nice, after one get's to know it.

repaap · 03-04-2012, 02:50 PM

Here we go again.

Err, I should not try to upload anything at night time...

Good stuff everyone!

I love my Tokina lenses. I have the 80-200/2.8, the non-ATX 20-35, and the 90mm macro "Bokina"

I've been seriously thinking of replacing my Tamron 28-70/2.8 for a Tokina just for the build quality alone.

Plus I love the way everyone looks at you kind of funny when you mention Tokina lenses...they just don't get it.

repaap · 03-07-2012, 01:14 AM

Thanks sgtrutters,

I was going to buy Tamron 28-75, but after seein somany great shots with tokina AT-X pro 28-70, I just have to buy that, when I get money.

Hello! I got my AT-X 270 PRO (28-70mm f/2.8) a few months back on ebay. I like it. Although AF is difficult in low light.

Here are a few shots from a recent weekend trip (K10D):

I am a newcomer to photography. I will be very happy with suggestions on how to use this lens better!

repaap · 03-07-2012, 04:37 AM

Hi baboo_barthag. Really nice set. This gives me more good reasons to buy that lens... That shot baby portrait is really nice, good 3-D pop and nice oof. I don't know how to make you use this presice lens better, since I don't own one. But some of your shots are dark, you could maybe bring them little lighter in postprosess. Tones seems to be great. Maybe even play more with PoV to gain more personaliity for subject...for example in picture with camel at close range, maybe little lower Pov an closer and more room in direction of look...but these are personal things too. I like your shots. You asked for opinion so...

welcome to this tokina thread! Let's post some more.

baboo_parthag · 03-07-2012, 11:52 AM

Thanks repaap. Yes I wanted to get closer to that camel, but he gave me a menacing look

repaap · 03-07-2012, 12:28 PM

Yeah, I know what you mean...even I haven't really been close to one might have seen one in zoo...

Nice work.

repaap · 03-07-2012, 01:14 PM

Here is some of my last ones...

One I'll post to sign's tread too
