Review of the Tokina / Vivitar 90mm 2.5 Macro

The photos of the flower and the watch were taken by this lens (the one on sale). I hope that these photos demonstrate that this is a great sample -- sharp, clear, and with excellent color rendition. If you move your mouse over the image on the right, you will get a menu where you can see the photo in a "Large" size, or in the "Original" 10 megapixel size (100% crop or "pixel-peep")

 > A side shot of the lily.  A 100% crop follows.
 > At a 100% crop (pixel-peep) the fine pollen grains are visible.
 > Focused on the petal on the right.
 > 100% crop (pixel-peep) of the petal.  The lens resolves a great deal of detail.
 > Focused on the anthers.
 > 100% crop (pixel-peep) of the pollen-encrusted anthers.
 > Another shot, this time at f/2.5 for a very shallow depth-of-field.
 > A leaf in the background is "creamed" by the lens's smooth bokeh. 100% crop (pixel-peep).
 > A lily at 1:2 magnification.  I focused on the pollen-encrusted anthers.
 > A 1:2 macro shot of a watch.
 > A 100% crop (pixel-peep) of the watch.  The lens resolves a great amount of detail at 10 megapixels.
 > Another 100% crop (pixel-peep) of the watch.  Even tiny scratches invisible to the naked eye are revealed.
 > I deliberately overexposed and caused some veiling for the effect in this shot.  The flower itself is lit very dimly, but the Christmas lights behind it provide intense background lighting.
 > This is another shot where some of the "negative" effects of intense background light cause interesting effects.
 > Out-of-focus Christmas lights, f/2.5.
