I adore my RMC Tokina 28mm 2.8, and really like my RMC Tokina 80-200mm 4.5, so when I was able to pick this RMC Tokina 35-70mm 3.5 up for under $30, including shipping, I didn`t hesitate.
I've only taken a few shots so far, but it seems to be pretty decent, especially for a zoom. Some CA, but good colour straight out of the camera, I didn't really need to do any post processing.
I really like the close-up feature, it makes it easy to go out and just take camera and one lens and be able to get a variety of shots.
I didn't realize til afterwards that I hadn't tried it out for portraits yet, so that will be the next thing.
Crop of above photo.
Using the close-up feature.
