I received the lens in a very protective package. The lens is good shape, no scratches, but very minor wear which is not noticeable. I don't see dust inside the lens, although there are dusts on the lens surface, the filter, and the rear lens element. I just cleaned them. The glass on the UV filter is a little bit loose. I am OK with it as I can use another filter. The rear cap is not the original Tokina one, but I can accept that, too. It's a good deal.

Best lens in my bag. Very sharp pictures. IO own a Nikon 24mm 2.8 FX lens and quality of pictures are way better in this Tokina.

After much research and reading many online reviews I chose the Tokina over the Nikon. This decision was largely made because of cost with the Nikon lens being so much more expensive. Since purchasing this lens I have tested it on many shoots and have found it excellent both in the smoothness of use and the quality of the image resulting from the shoot when coupled with my Nikon D7000.If I had to nit pick and find a fault I might say the weight as it is a hefty lens.But having said that it is a sturdy lens which I think you could run over with your car and it would come up trumps ( I'm not going to do this mind you..lol) This lens feels like a "real" piece of photographic equipment as opposed to some plastic equipment found in the market place. If you are trying to work out which lens will work for your requirements you would do well to consider this lens before making your purchase.Read full review
I just received this lens a few days ago and was a little nervous at first because I have been shooting with all Nikon products for over thirty years. I purchased this lens because of reviews I had read and the cost for the focal length. I needed this focal length for Landscape and other applications. When I received this lens I was very happily surprised at the weight and the ease of operation. I used it for a Night shoot on a lake and it worked very well. I did not like the way the lens attaches to the camera. There is a mark to line it up, but in the dark it was hard to see even with a light. I would give this lens a 9 out of 10 and would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable Ultra Wide Lens.
The Tokina 12-24mm II wide angle lens is inexpensive, very sharp and built solidly. For all practical purposes, this lens is at least as good as the Nikon 12-24mm DX lens. The version II has its own internal motor for auto focusing and will work on lower-end Nikon DSLR cameras such as D40 and D50. It will also work on modern D3000 and D5000 series cameras. For me, it's a perfect wide angle lens and I'll use it everyday without any reservation.
