Are not the sharper lenses that I've ever tried but at this price are good. It fit perfectly the Cokin filter holder and there are no vignetting on APS-C camera, but I haven't try if at the wider focal lenght on a FF camera there are any vignetting.
The focus is noisy but quite accurate. The material that is made off is excellent.
So, I can recommend this lenses, even better for FF camera owners.
No one garantee sheet insaide the box, so I'm going to ask to Amazon if they are miss it or what happened.

SandroI agonised for some time over the purchase of this lens. I would swing between stumping up the extra for the Nikon 16-28 and saving a few quid and going for the Nikon 18-35. I kept coming back to the Tokina, but couldn't bring myself to spend very nearly the price of the 16-28 for it. Finally I found one on Amazon for the bargain price of £340 delivered! I find the lens is spot on and sharp at the typical landscape aperture settings; images using this lens can be found on my website http://www.westcountryphotographic.co.uk/MainGallery.php
A word of warning for those, who like me, use the Lee filter system, the 82mm wide angle adaptor does not fit this lens. I have got a standard adaptor on it for the time being although It does mean I can't stack 3 filters and a polariser; it vignettes even with just 2 filters on it wide open.

booneyDesigned for full-frame cameras, the Tokina AT-X 17-35 mm F/4 gives photographers a wide-angle option. With a focal length of 17 mm at the wide side the lens yields a spectacular 103.9 degree field of view which is ideal for shooting in tight situations or for taking in wide expanses of space. This compact wide-angle zoom has a bright constant F/4 aperture make viewing and auto focus possible in lower light situations but still maintaining a reasonable size and weight. Two super-low dispersion glass elements and one aspheric glass allow the proprietary optical design to achieve higher contrast and sharpness as well as controlling chromatic aberration. Tokina’s One-touch Focus Clutch mechanism allows the photographer to switch between AF and MF simply by snapping the focus ring forward for AF and back toward the lens mount for manual focusing. Additionally the mechanics have been designed for better seals around moving parts making the lens more water-resistant* than lenses of the past. The lens is also designed to stand up to the challenges of daily use by photographers in a wide variety of shooting conditions.
(*The AT-X 17-35 is water-resistant, not water-proof and is not designed to be submerged or used unprotected in heavy rain.)
