- Not designed for Nikon full-frame (FX) DSLRs - heavy vignetting on FX
Best for
A compact, pro-built macro prime for Nikon DX - short working distance at 1:1 is the trade-off for the short focal length, making it best for inanimate subjects (jewellery, product, documents, stamps) rather than insects that need distance. On APS-C it's a 52mm equivalent standard prime for general use.
Frequently asked questions
Is it true 1:1 macro?
Yes. 1:1 (life-size) maximum magnification at the 0.14m minimum focus distance.
Will it autofocus on entry-level Nikon DSLRs (D3xxx / D5xxx)?
Depends on the version - earlier Tokina AT-X 35mm DX Macro uses screw-drive AF and won't AF on entry-level Nikons; the Tokina AF-S-style later version does. Check the specific unit for a lens-mounted focus motor.
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
No — this lens does not have image stabilisation.
