As an longtime committed owner of the 12-24mm version, please Tokina, explain to me why this should attract me to change...? I see no technical difference (outside of the additional (2??) mm of additional focal length.
Were they to have produced this in an f2.8 version I would have upgraded like a shot (after seeing some example images) but this...????
Yes. They will gain new users but there is nothing here for existing users whatsoever.
