Known for its surprisingly slender profile and robust all-metal construction, this lens offers an impressive 400mm reach, making it a favorite for vintage enthusiasts pursuing wildlife, bird, and moon photography. Despite its long focal length, the f\/6.3 design keeps the lens relatively portable and easy to handle compared to faster, much heavier alternatives. With its built-in retractable lens hood and smooth, long-throw focus ring, the Tokina Tele-Auto provides a tactile and rewarding shooting experience for those who appreciate the deliberate pace of manual telephoto photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,0,0\"\u003ePowerful 400mm super-telephoto focal length for extreme reach\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,1,0\"\u003eRobust all-metal barrel construction typical of vintage Japanese manufacturing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,2,0\"\u003eBuilt-in retractable metal lens hood to reduce flare and protect the front element\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,3,0\"\u003eConstant f\/6.3 maximum aperture in a compact, manageable diameter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,4,0\"\u003eLarge, textured manual focus ring for precise adjustments on distant subjects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,5,0\"\u003eIntegrated tripod mounting collar for better balance and stability\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\"\u003eCamera Type: Lenses\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\"\u003eLens Mount: Canon FD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\"\u003eFocal Length: 400mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,3,0\"\u003eAperture Range: f\/6.3 - f\/22\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,4,0\"\u003eCategory: Lenses ▸ Specialty \/ Tilt-Shift Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,5,0\"\u003eFilter Size: 72mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/b\u003e \"The Tokina 400mm f\/6.3 is often called a 'hidden gem' of the manual focus era. Most 400mm lenses are bulky and heavy, but this Tokina is remarkably thin, making it much easier to fit into a standard gear bag. This specific unit (S\/N: 7518912) showcases the legendary build quality Tokina was known for in the 70s. While it requires a steady hand or a tripod, the image quality—especially when stopped down slightly—offers a lovely vintage character with very natural color rendering. It’s a fantastic way to get serious telephoto reach on a budget, whether you're shooting film or adapting to a modern digital mirrorless body.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/b\u003e Good condition. The lens barrel (S\/N: 7518912) shows normal signs of use with some minor cosmetic wear and paint loss on the metal body consistent with its age. The optics are clear, free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches. The manual focus ring is smooth and the aperture blades are clean and responsive.
