This Old And Affordable Tokina AT-X 828 F2.8 Lens Works On My New Mirrorless Camera!

Hello everyone today I am showcasing one of my most precious lenses, the Tokina AT-X 828 F2.8, 80-200MM lens from the early 80's. This wonder lens went out of their way to compete with the lens manufacturers at the time. This lens fits on my Panasonic GH3, GH4, and other 4/3 mounts with a Metabones speedbooster. In the video I talk a little bit about the company, the lens, and show you some of the footage and photographs I took with this lens.

For those of you wondering, yes you can still buy this lens on Ebay at a discount rate and fit it to your camera of choice with the right adapter. This is probably one of the cheapest solutions if you are starting off with old lenses or need a descent zoom lens at f2.8.
