In this video we review two new lenses being released by Tokina, the Tokina atx-m 23mm 1.4 X lens for FUJIFILM and the Tokina atx-m 33mm f/1.4 X Lens for FUJIFILM. We also answer the question, which would I recommend, FUJIFILM, Viltrox, or Tokina for these two focal lengths.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Viewer Joshua Ali pointed out that there are two differences I failed to notice/mention. First, unlike Viltrox, the Tokina lenses have no USB ports. Does that mean updating via the device? I'll see if I can find out.
Second, Viltrox has a 1-year warranty with shipment to China, whereas Tokina has a 3-year warranty with shipment to a California address.
One important thing I forgot to mention! X-Pro 3 users may have less to worry about with the Tokina 23mm 1.4 than the version 1 of the Viltrox 23mm 1.4, as there appears to be more space between the base and aperture ring. Although, I must stress, I do not currently have an X-Pro 3 to confirm that with. dropbox.com/s/gbrjtpkbzy1w4ie/measurements%20.jpg?dl=0
