morning walk with the Tokina 24mm
Posted By: wpvv, 11-11-2012, 06:16 AM

This morning I walked my re-found Tokina RMC 24mm on the K10d (see https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-slr-lens-discussion/204729-box-full-80-lenses.html for this lens' story).
Quite like the angle of view and the size of the lens (as opposed to the 16-50 I would have taken otherwise). Sharpness is OK; it could be more flair resistant.

Would it be worthwhile to look out for a Pentax 24mm or the newer 21mm?

All photographs taken in Amerongen, just a few miles near my home in Veenendaal, the Netherlands

Beech trees have so much character, and you've brought that out beautifully here. I love the contrast and colors in #3. And that last shot is so serene, with beautiful soft light.

Hey Dice these look very good, especially the forest shots. I didn't read you lens story yet, but assume it is an old lens from the 1980s. It did an awesome job; love the tones and textures. Wonderful compositions!

The image of the Beech trees and forest could have been taken in my backyard!

Looks like it was a nice walk
I like the forest photos, remind me of my own forest hikes. Good colours and clarity

Love the textures and colors in the first shot. Those roots look like some kind of prehistoric lizard. The beech trees are beautiful and the last shot is so pastoral. Lovely series.
