Product Summary

Overview

The Tokina 300mm f/6.3 Reflex Telephoto Macro lens is an ultra-telephoto lens designed for the micro four-thirds mount based Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens cameras and offers the same angle of view of that of a 600mm lens mounted on a full frame DSLR. The lens does not have auto-focusing and has to be focused manually. It has a constant aperture of f/6.3 which is reasonable and cannot be considered to be fast. The lens offers a decent performance in low light conditions and when shooting fast action photography.

As such it offers a great telephoto reach for smaller micro four thirds based MILC cameras. The lens has minimum focusing distance of 34.50”.

Overall design is very compact and solid. The lens has a large manual focusing ring that helps in the precise focusing of the lens. The barrel is metal made and offers a secure feeling.The lens is catadioptric and has very little to non-existent chromatic aberration. Even then Tokina has provided multi-layer coating which means the lens has absolutely no issues from flares and ghosts when shooting in bright sunlight.
