Rated 4 out of 5

A well-made smooth focusing Reflex lens

The Tokina SZX 400 f/8 reflex telephoto lens mounts nicely on the Nikon Z7. The lens and mount are all-metal construction, and the manual focus ring is quite smooth to turn, and is well- dampened. The design of a reflex (catadioptric) lens requires patience and deliberation to focus accurately. Of course, the manual focus tools on the Z7 does aid in this process. Images obtained are decently detailed, especially if the camera is on a solid tripod or monopod. I would recommend this lens, if used properly.

On the go with 400mm

The SZX is a novel lens with a learning curve if you want decent shots. Not tack sharp but does a good job when using focus peaking. Stong points: its size and weight. Great for outdoor nature shots.

A Good Lens

For the price, it is a great lens. It is light weight and easy to use. It is a manual focus lens, which is helping me to take my time in composing my shots.

About Tokina SZX 400mm f/8

Tokina SZX 400mm f/8.

Tokina SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF is a 400mm super tele lens that adopts catadioptric type optical design with a constant F8 aperture. The lens offers compact alternative to standard tele photo lenses as more and more photographers are looking for easy-to-carry gear. 400mm F8 Reflex MF is designed keeping in mind active travel photographers seeking for outdoor landscape, wild nature or birds by providing compact and lightweight lens to be rediscovered in the new era of also compact but high-tech mirrorless cameras.

Tokina SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF is suitable for travel photography since the lens is compact and lightweight, and yet will help you to capture far objects that cannot be reached by standard zoom lenses.

Optical Performance.

Long 400mm focal length of Tokina SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF while being such a compact and lightweight is realized thanks to catadioptric optical design.

Mirror lenses are tele photo lenses that incorporate a combination of 3 lenses silvered on the outside of the glass to reflect light back and forth between the ends of the lens. This structure folds the light cutting the tube length in half. In this way the construction makes the physical size of the lens around a third of the size of a conventional lens and allows a lightweight body, because the mirrors are much lighter than the optical glass.

Rediscovering Reflex Lens with Mirrorless Cameras
Reflex type of lenses are used to be considered as out of fashion, inconvenient gear due to fixed aperture, manual focusing and absence of image stabilization. We suggest to rediscover all advantages of reflex type lenses again, by using it with contemporary mirrorless cameras.

Easy to focus
Focus assist functions like focus peaking will help to find the sharpest focus point.

Less shaking
In-build multi-axis advanced image stabilization systems of mirrorless cameras will make you forget about blurred images due to hand shaking.

No slow shutter any more
Newest mirrorless cameras featuring advanced wide ISO settings can offer photographer choosing faster shutter speed with minimum pixel noises on the image.

Optical Performance.

Compact & Lightweight.

Optics
Lens elements inside the lens are coated with multi-layer anti-reflection coating for effective light intake and as a result, for increasing shutter speed in low light conditions.

Mirrored surfaces of the lens elements incorporate high-reflectivity silvered coating and a protective antioxidant layer on the back side for a longer product lifetime.

Macro shooting
The field of view is 6 Degree 8' (by frame diagonal) and min. focusing distance is 1.15m. It gives magnification 1:2.5 to capture an object with size 6x9cm on full frame. These properties help the photographer to avoid shadows while shooting close up images.

Compact & Lightweight.

Easy and precise focusing
Tokina SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF is equipped with wide and excellent grip focus ring that provides smooth rotation range 270 Degree . Precise focusing could not be more easy.

Super compression
Thanks to its long focal length Tokina SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF can create images with super compression effect, when the background looks close and enlarged compared to the main object. This effect adds to the image enchanting atmosphere.
