Photographer's comments:

"The image seen here was taken when I was trying out a new softbox for my off camera flash. When it comes to portraits I find I always reach for my Tokina AT-X M100 PRO D Macro. I have found myself using this lens to do more and more of my work.

It covers macro, portraits, street, general everyday photography and lately I have been using it for landscapes and seascapes with great results.

The detail that can be achieved with this glass is second to none, with or without using flash. The contrast and colour rendition are perfect and whats even better is that there is zero distortion in these lenses. (check in photoshop). A pleasure to use with its push/pull focus system which enables you to quickly attain very close or far off focus.

The D850 is a very unforgiving camera which will show up user faults very quickly and does not tolerate poor optics. As you can see from this image the lens delivers pin sharp detail. If you need a great all rounder of a lens go for one of these."
