Fiddling with the Tokina ATX 90mm/f2.5 Macro on the Sony A7c
A couple of months ago I bought the Tokina ATX 90mm/f2.5 Macro lens to try a bit of close-up & macro photography. The lens is completely manual. I bought it on Ebay, although the condition of it is fairly decent, it had been disassembled earlier, as far as I can tell.
The lens is great optically which is not news at all. It's very sharp even wide open, with great smooth bokeh (so is the nickname of the lens: Bokina, although with some vignetting in corners at f2.5, and ourple fringing in bright contra light. Manual focusing is a bit of a challenge for me but I'm doing my best. So long story short, here are some photos taken with the lens and Sony A7c.

Summer moves on with the purplish light (ISO 500, 1/1000 sec, f/2.5, 90mm)
And now some non-macro photos with the same lens.
