Hmmmm .... I've used a couple of Tokina ATX zoom lenses that were well-rated here, and was mostly disappointed by them. One was, I believe, an 80~200/2.8, and it had a lot of barrel and pincushion distortion at the ends, and a considerable amount of light falloff at the widest two apertures. Likewise for another Tokina ATX, although I don't recall the focal length/range. They seemed to be well built, although at the price of being rather large and heavy. Just curious how the 60~120 seems to you in this regard. Of course, I often shoot at wider apertures, or at least prefer to, so optical quality in that regard is important, more so in some situations than at f/8.0.
