Is the Tokina 10-17mm on the way out?

[John Gulliver]

One UK seller (Camerabox) informed me that they will not be receiving any more and another (Fotosense, from whom I just bought my lens, at a very low price) advertises "the last few" on their website. Has anybody heard that Tokina have stopped making this lens or are about to do so?

maybe they have something to replace it. FX version maybe?

I really love mine, been thinking about buying a back-up. Wonder what they would replace it with????

This needs an internal focus motor to work well on Nikon low end cameras. Perhaps they will introduce a new model with internal focus motor, like Nikon AF-S or Sigma HSM? I can't see them walking away from this successful product line. I may get a backup too....

Is the lens that successful among other photographers than underwater?
