Looking for Equivalent to Tokina 11-16 in a Prime Lens

Hello all,

I'm trying to find an equivalent to the Tokina 11-16mm in a Prime lens. Reason being is the infinity issues and also I think I can find a prime for lower cost. Any help would be appreciated.

I think Rokinon's 14mm is a great wide angle solution on the BMCC.

Thanks, I've been looking at the Rokinons.... Are you talking about the cine version or just in general?

but when is that coming to the market? it just got released!

14mm is already out http://www.amazon.com/Rokinon-CV14M-C-D ... kinon+14mm the 16mm just got announced

I would definitely recommend their cine lenses. Although it's the same lens, their cine lenses work great in any video setting.

However if your willing to wait, the 16mm has a T-stop of 2.2 rather than the 14mm's 3.1.

A SLR Magic 12mm, it's a cine lens, nice focus and click less appiture ring. Takes a great sharp pix, and would be on the wider side of the 11-16. You could then add a 17mm (standard) lens for a normal view angle, and a 25mm to round out the set.

Thanks Denny, I'm going to look a the SLR, as far the other lenses, I've been looking at Nikon Ais lenses, I've contacted Duclos Lens for there cine mod conversions and there very reasonable.
