I have a Tokina 24-40/2.8 lens I bought more than 5 years ago for my OMs.
For the first time I experienced hot-spotting with a lens. It's a very sharp
lens, but the unpredictability and severity of the hot-spotting has resulted in
me hardly using it on OM since discovering the problem. I haven't tried it on
an E-thing, but should give it a trial then sell it. I'm not much good at
seling
but this one is a prime candidate for sale. It would find sky to reflect in the
most unlikely places.
