So, I just bought a bugma for my macro lens, (needed a little more reach) so this tokina, my favorite lens to this point, has to go.
This is an amazing lens, and a superb copy.
I am debating whether to sell it or not, so at this point the price is firm of $320 shipped and paypalled.
This is an amazing portrait lens, and macro lens, its been my sharpest lens.
Theres not much else to say except that I really hope she gets a good new home!
Let me know if you want more pictures.

Comes with original box, front and rear caps and hood.

    Does it have an internal focus motor (will it AF with D40/40x/60)?

    I dont know if it has an internal af motor...
    I always used in manual focus because its way easier for macro work

    ***Will not AF when used on Nikon D40 SLR camera body.

    From the bottom of the page about it on their catalog here: http://www.tokinalens.com/pdf/tokina-catalog.pdf


    I'll assume that applies to the D60 too as it has the same limitations as the D40.

    How is this lens for portraits or any other shooting other than macro,or would the focusing me too slow for anything other than portraits?
    Would you have any sample pictures?

    This is a great portrait lens...its actually rated high as both a portrait and a macro lens.
    I used it mostly for macro work, but I have some portraits. Ill try to find them and post some pics, but take my word, its not good for only macros.
    And from what Ive seen the focusing is nice and fast. Its a great low-light lens as well (2.8)

    I really would like to get this, but I'm leaving for California Thursday and will be off work for 12 days! :(
