Overwhelmingly lightweight and compact super telephoto lens ” SZ PRO ” series

Introducing the ” SZ PRO ” series , a super-telephoto manual focus lens for APS-C that is overwhelmingly lightweight, compact, and capable of capturing powerful, extraordinary images . A super-telephoto lens that far exceeds the human field of vision is one of the lenses that many people who have an interchangeable lens camera want next. However, general super-telephoto lenses are surprisingly expensive, heavy and bulky, making them difficult to carry around. The Tokina SZ PRO series brings together the technologies cultivated by the Tokina brand and applies the technology of a reflecting telescope, making it extremely lightweight and compact, and at a price that even beginners can easily afford.

<The super-telephoto world at an affordable price.> Lineup of 300mm, 600mm, and 900mm >

Super telephoto lenses are heavy and bulky. The ” SZ PRO ” series, which overturns that concept, can be easily stored in a bag and taken out quickly. With Tokina’s technology, which has been researching mirror lenses for many years, we want you to easily create experiences that go beyond human vision and enjoy the expansion of photographic expression. This lens was developed with that in mind.

<Overwhelmingly lightweight and compact>

The ” SZ PRO ” series, which appeared this time , has a total length of 168 mm even at 900 mm , which is surprisingly compact compared to optical lenses with the same focal length. At 300mm , it is as compact as a can of coffee. An MF lens that overcomes the problem of being bulky and heavy to carry around with super-telephoto lenses . No need to carry bulky luggage. The ” SZ PRO ” series allows you to carry it in your bag or attach it to your camera and go out to shoot with ease .
