First Look (part 1) at the new Tokina Cinema ATX 11-20mm PL lens received from Duclos Lenses. This test December 29, 2018 shows a full range zoom between two subjects. It also illustrates flaring near a bright sun. On December 30th, you can see the difference in image quality when the lens and matte box are in shade. At the very wide angles, I’ll likely want to keep everything shaded as some of the flares are soft and pleasing while others are hard and distracting.

I tilted up on the second day to match the angle of the sun on the first day; but with an extreme 11mm lens, most times you’ll want the camera level. The lens is quite rectilinear when levelled. You can see focus breathing is non-existent, but some chromatic aberration is evident at the boundary between a dark edge and very bright background. On the URSA Mini 4.6K camera, there is no vignetting with the Kenko Tokina Cinema IRND filter at 11mm. This is good news since the Bright Tangerine Misfit Atom is rated to manage a 14mm lens. However if you stack a filter, the lens should be used around 12.5mm or 13mm to avoid vignetting. The lens presents a very clear image, perhaps slightly warm (like my SLR Magic APO primes that I need to match with the Tokina). The Kenko Tokina Cinema IRND1.2 filter seems to be free of a colour cast; that’s the only filter I’ve used so far. I plan to use this lens shortly for a BTS of a client shoot.
