EDIT: When I mentioned the lens mounts on the DZO Pictor series, I meant to say "as many different lens mounts as the Tokina". Yes, you can switch lens mounts on the DZO Pictor lenses from EF to PL, but that's it.

I’m impressed as always! You cover so many questions and I’m glad I listen to every word you say and I understand these are your thoughts on any products you review. Keep them coming Joe your awesome and I’m so jealous ( at least I can admit that)

Good info about these lenses! Agree, given their price, difficult to complain about it. I already have the Fujinon MK pair, very happy with it. Both have absolutly zero breathing. At the moment, I'm looking at the Tokina 11-20mm to complement the kit. The DZO zooms looks very nice too but still missing a wide hagle option here. I'm guessing the Tokina 11-20mm is becoming a must have for the S35 cameras.

I'm really excited to try the DZO set but now hearing that the Fujinon MK pair is amazing from multiple people...I'm wanting to try them too.

Ayy ooo 👋🏼 Nice to have you back in full form, I hope you are well. Great video, very helpful. As for lens review... I want to buy the Kamlan 21mm f1.8 but I cannot find more than 1 review on it. Very few people know about this lens and therefore there's basically nothing about it. Apparently it's a great lens for 180 bux

Appreciate the love and support brother. Feel free to join the Discord if you haven't already!

There is too big a gap between 11-20mm and 50-135mm. Tokina doesn't have any fixed focal length prime for crop bodies imbetween 20mm and 50mm other than going to their FF prime lenses which would have to be their 29mm or 35mm Vista primes (with the added crop from FF to S35 having to be taken into account) . I think a better pair up is their 11-20mm and 24-75mm when exclusively using a s35 sensor body.

Nice video 👍🏻 I am ready to get the Tokina 11-20 but a bit torn with the other focal ranges. DZO or Laowa OOOM lens? Someone also mentioned an in-between for the Tokina you reviewed here, 20-70 roughly but isn’t out yet. Thoughts?

The Tokina 25-75 is out and I can tell you, it's a REALLY good lens. The review is coming real soon ;)

Please do a non-technical test test shoot comparing these to the DZOfilm Pictor Zooms on the pocket 6K. Just a real life shoot applying the same simple LUT. I’m torn between the two lenses. I like how wide these goes but I love the creamy look of the Pictor zooms.

Do you need the rails to support the Tokina 50-135mm on the BMPCC4K (is it too heavy without it) or can you just attach the glass to the camera body without worrying about damaging the camera mount? Thanks for the video. Very informative.

@joenicklo

Personally, if it’s not a strong mount I’d use a lens support. With a pocket 4K, you have the speed booster or adapter in between so absolutely, use a support.

At the time I made this video, I used the Blackmagic pocket 4K and sigma 18-35mm

As we know Sigma cine zoom lenses are made from the same glass as Sigma's 18-35 and 50-100mm still lenses have. So question is this, does Tokina Cinema 11-20mm T2.9 ATX and Tokina 50-135mm T2.9 Mark II Cinema ATX lenses are made from same glass as their still versions? If yes can you tell me the full name of that still version? Because there are ton of tokina still lenses and i couldn't figure out or you can share a b&h,amazon link. I am just doing some research, thanks.

If you're a single oparator in a small crew environment, any of this makes no sense. Canon L stills lenses are cheaper, full frame, optically better, smaller and they have AF when you need it. Hollywood workflows are made for large crews and 5 people operating a camera, it makes no sense for single operators and small crews, heavy rigging and cinema leneses are just slowing you down significantly.
