Hello all,

Nice to see such wide angles without any distortion! Love these kind of perspectives.

Also these have been taken in Rotterdam if my memory serves me right Razz.

Great results; it also did well on my (now sold) 5D. I should try it on a Pentax film camera body. I was particularly impressed with the sharpness in the corners - not easy for extreme WA lenses.

It could be interested especially in full frame.

Thanks for the comments. First picture is taken in The Hague near the central station. The second and third in Rotterdam, Lijnbaan and Rotterdam Hofplein a former train station now temporarely used for lightrail trains the "Randstadrail". All taken with the sunny f16 rule while the lightmeter on the OM-1 is broken. Lens is a SMC Tokina 3.5 / 17mm so not the later more expensive version.

Regards, Cliff

I have one of them in nikon AF format - it is really not bad for the price. Bit soft especially in the corners, but better than the Tamron IMHO. These are excellent samples

Thanks. I have this one. I know that there's a more expensive one but I'm not sure what it is called.
