Default Tokina Super Wide Angle 12-24mm f/4 - DOF Question

You should google up "hyperfocal distance" and study the concept.

Hey there,

I was hoping to get testimonials about the Tokina lens' Depth Of Field
abilities. I recently bought the Canon Super Wide 10-22 f/3.5 - 4.5
and I'm displeased with it's DOF abilities. I've tried shooting both
with AF and MF, with varying small apertures, ISO's, ... and I'm just
not getting what I need from this lens. It's a shame as the lens if
performing quite well otherwise (barrel distortions, CAs, MTF
Res, ...).

I had posted a comparative (Sigma vs Canon) Wide Angle lens question a
couple of weeks ago - to which I received a bunch of great replies -
so I guess this is somewhat related.

Thanks a lot, dave
