Tokina SZ SUPER TELE FINDER LENS
Quick and accurate long distance aiming at objects using tele or super tele lenses is not as simple as it seems to be. A narrow field of view makes the photographer hunt for a while until the object appears inside the frame. This waste of time might cost the photographer the perfect shot.
The Tokina SUPER TELE Finder Lens is a convenient accessory for photographers who practice long distance tele shooting like birds, celestial bodies, auto racing, fireworks, airplanes or animals.
The purpose of this accessory is not just to assist in aiming but even in tracking the target in a quicker and more accurate way. Suggested to use with a tele or super tele lens like the Tokina SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF and coming soon Tokina SZ SUPER TELE 500mm F8 Reflex MF.
Tokina SZ Super Tele Finder Lens emits and projects a red dot-shaped LED light onto the glass screen. Aligning the red dot with the object while looking through the finder will help you to catch the object inside the frame in a quicker and more accurate way and thus, to minimize the chance to miss the perfect shot!
Compact one-piece slim metal body and robust built
Tokina SZ Super Tele Finder Lens features a one-piece slim metal body with no moving parts. This simple design and robust built assures long life with less chance to break in tough situations
Tokina SZ Super Tele Finder Lens does not adopt a swing-out construction. This allows to keep the design compact and slim.
Horizontal and vertical calibration
Tokina SZ Super Tele Finder Lens requires red dot calibration before shooting. For this purpose there are two screws for vertical and horizontal adjustments on the top and left side of the unit. Adjustment screws of the Tokina SZ Super Tele Finder Lens do not come out from the surface, so the chance of accidentally shifting the adjustments is much smaller.
