Overview
The Tokina 10-17mm fisheye zoom became the single most important underwater wide-angle lens of the digital crop-sensor era. Offering 180° to 100° angle of view on DX/APS-C cameras, it provided unprecedented compositional flexibility in a compact package that no other lens could match. Its 14 cm close focus distance, combined with compatibility with small dome ports, revolutionized close-focus wide-angle (CFWA) photography and made the lens the default wide-angle choice for DX shooters from 2006 through the entire DX DSLR era and beyond.
The lens was originally developed by Tokina as an OEM product for Pentax. In December 2005, Pentax announced a “10-17mm digital fisheye zoom lens” for their *ist cameras, but Wetpixel users quickly identified it as a Tokina-manufactured product, sparking hope that Nikon and Canon mount versions would follow ([1]). Those hopes were realized in 2006, when Tokina released the lens in both mounts.
As Matt Segal noted at its introduction, the lens was “of most benefit to cropped-sensor Canon users, who until this point, had no suitable option to approach a 180 degree field of view” ([2]). Berkley White of Backscatter went further, calling it “arguably the greatest wide angle lens ever made for underwater photography” ([3]).
Why It Dominated Underwater Photography
The Tokina 10-17mm became dominant for several interconnected reasons:
-
Zoom flexibility — The 180° to 100° AOV range gave compositional versatility impossible with prime fisheye lenses like the Nikon 10.5mm or Sigma 10mm. Photographers could frame tight close-focus compositions at 10mm or pull back to 17mm for more traditional wide-angle framing, all without surfacing to change lenses ([4]).
-
Mini dome revolution — The lens’s compact physical size and 14 cm close focus made it ideal for 4” mini dome ports (100mm diameter), enabling CFWA techniques that were impossible with standard 8-9” domes. Alex Mustard demonstrated he could fill the frame with a sea urchin smaller than half a tennis ball at 10mm using a mini dome ([5]).
-
Travel-friendly — Small lens plus mini dome meant dramatically smaller and lighter wide-angle rigs compared to full-frame setups requiring large dome ports ([6]).
-
No alternative for Canon DX — Before this lens, Canon crop-sensor shooters had zero fisheye option for 180° coverage ([7]).
-
Port ecosystem — Every major housing manufacturer built dedicated ports: Nexus (4.75” glass dome), Aquatica (Mini Dome 100), Zen (100mm dome), Seacam (Fisheye Macro 105mm port), Subal (9” dome with extension ring), Nauticam (4.5” mini dome and larger options), Sea & Sea (Optical Glass dome and Universal Dome 210AR), Ikelite (6” and 8” domes), and UnderWater Camera Stuff (5” dome specifically tuned for the lens).
-
Screw-drive AF compatibility — The lens uses screw-drive autofocus, requiring a camera body with an AF motor. This was standard on all serious DX cameras (D200, D300, D7000 series, D500) but became a limitation on some entry-level bodies and all mirrorless cameras ([8]).
-
FX compatibility — The NH version could be used on full-frame cameras in DX crop mode, giving 15MP images on a D800 — a feature Adam Hanlon specifically highlighted as allowing “DX shooters the opportunity of using the camera with their beloved Tokina 10-17mm fisheye zooms” ([9]).
-
Teleconverter compatibility — Used with a 1.4x teleconverter (typically Kenko), the lens gained additional working distance while maintaining close-focus ability, expanding its versatility for CFWA work. Barry Guimbellot and others documented this combination extensively ([10]).
Revisions
Original DX Version (2006)
The original AT-X 107 DX featured a built-in lens hood, available in Nikon F and Canon EF-S mounts. It was previewed at Photokina 2006, where it attracted significant attention from the underwater photography community ([11]). First underwater test images by Raimundo Fernandez on a Canon 400D were published in November 2006, showing encouraging results ([12]).
A well-known aftermarket modification involved having the built-in lens hood shaved off (available in Germany for approximately 50 euros, with a lens replacement guarantee if damaged during the process). This modification anticipated the NH version by several years ([13]).
NH Version (2011)
The AT-X 107 NH replaced the DX version with two key changes:
- Hood removed: The built-in lens hood was eliminated, allowing a wider angle of view and making the lens fit “a wider variety of underwater housings.” On FX cameras, this enabled full corner-to-corner coverage between approximately 14.5-17mm focal length (below 14mm, a semi-circular vignette appeared) ([14]).
- WR coating: A new “Water Repellent” optical coating on the front element made fingerprints and water spots easier to clean ([15]).
The NH version retailed for $619 and was available in both Nikon and Canon mounts. Community reaction noted that the update was “basically the same as getting the hood shaved off,” a modification that had already been available from third-party services ([16]).
Nikon Z-Mount Limitation (2020)
Tokina formally announced that autofocus does not work with both versions of the 10-17mm when used with the Nikon FTZ adapter on Z6, Z7, and Z50 mirrorless cameras. Manual focus remains functional. This was a significant blow to DX underwater photographers considering the transition to mirrorless, as the lens had no native Z-mount equivalent ([17]).
Port Compatibility
The Tokina 10-17mm spawned an entire ecosystem of dedicated dome ports across all major housing manufacturers:
| Manufacturer | Port | Size | Type | Year | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nexus | DP1017-10 | 4.75” | Coated glass | 2007 | [18] |
| Seacam | Fisheye Macro 105mm | ~4” | Glass | 2010 | [19] |
| Zen Underwater | 100mm dome | ~4” | Glass | 2010 | [20] |
| Aquatica | Mini Dome 100 | 4” (100mm) | BK-7 coated glass | 2010 | [21] |
| Aquatica | Mega Dome | 9.25” | Glass | pre-2010 | [22] |
| Aquatica | Port adapter (Sea & Sea NX) | — | Adapter | 2010 | [23] |
| UnderWater Camera Stuff | Modular 5” Dome | 5” | Acrylic | 2011 | [24] |
| Subal | 9” dome + 18mm extension | 9” | Coated glass | pre-2011 | [25] |
| Barry Guimbellot / Creative Illusions | DIY mini dome | ~4” | Custom acrylic | 2010 | [26] |
| Nauticam | 4.5” mini dome | 4.5” | Acrylic/glass | 2010 | [27] |
| Sealux | 180F dome | — | Glass | pre-2008 | [28] |
| Sea & Sea | Universal Dome 210AR | 8” | Plantex | 2020 | [29] |
The Aquatica port adapter for Sea & Sea NX ports was specifically designed to accommodate the Tokina 10-17mm without additional extension, enabling photographers to migrate housing systems while keeping their ports ([30]).
The Mini Dome Revolution
The Tokina 10-17mm was the primary catalyst for the mini dome port revolution of 2009-2011. Eric Cheng noted in early 2010 that “crop sensor SLR users have more flexibility due to the availability of the Tokina 10-17 fisheye zoom, one of the most popular underwater wide-angle lenses” when discussing the trend toward tiny dome ports ([31]).
Alex Mustard wrote the definitive article on mini domes in March 2010, using the Tokina 10-17mm as the primary test lens. He identified two key advantages of mini domes specifically enabled by this lens:
- Strobe positioning — The small dome allowed strobes to be tucked very close to the port, dramatically improving lighting quality for CFWA subjects at working distances under 100mm (4 inches) ([32]).
- Subject magnification — The lens’s 14 cm close focus combined with the small dome’s compact physical profile allowed the photographer to get physically closer to subjects than with standard domes ([33]).
Mustard cautioned that mini domes produced a virtual image that was closer and more curved than standard-sized domes, making corner sharpness more difficult to achieve. He recommended them specifically for close-focus work rather than general wide-angle photography ([34]).
Barry Guimbellot’s DIY mini dome project, inspired directly by the Tokina 10-17mm, became a widely read Wetpixel article. After professional underwater photographer Marty Snyderman showed him the lens, Guimbellot was “instantly sold” and designed a custom dome port for his Nexus housing, reporting sharper images with more saturated colors than his original large dome ([35]).
Mustard’s DEMA 2011 talk “Domes without the Drone” covered the practical pros and cons of mini domes extensively, with many commenters noting they used their Tokina 10-17mm behind standard 8” domes and were satisfied with the combination ([36]).
DX vs FX Debate
The Tokina 10-17mm played a central role in the long-running DX vs FX format debate for underwater photography. Its existence was one of the strongest arguments in favor of DX:
Borut Furlan published a comprehensive DX vs FX comparison in 2011 arguing that DX was more suitable for underwater photography. One commenter noted that “the Sigma and/or Tokina Fisheye lenses” were “superior” alternatives for DX, with the Tokina being “more versatile” than the primes despite the Sigma 10mm being slightly sharper ([37]).
Alex Mustard argued in his D7100 review that “most serious underwater photographers don’t need convincing about the merits of the smaller DX format,” citing “versatile lenses, like the Tokina 10-17mm fisheye zoom, highly suited to underwater subjects” as a key reason ([38]).
Nauticam explicitly promoted the Tokina 10-17mm as a core advantage of DX systems in their NA-D500 housing announcement: “A fisheye that zooms! The Tokina 10-17 is the ultimate super wide field of view range, and full frame systems don’t have it” ([39]).
Reviews and Field Reports
The Tokina 10-17mm appeared in virtually every Nikon DX camera and housing review published on Wetpixel from 2006 through 2020:
-
First underwater test — Raimundo Fernandez shot the first underwater images with a Canon 400D. Matt Segal published the results, noting the lens was “of most benefit to cropped-sensor Canon users” (November 2006) ([40]).
-
Sealux CD300/D300 review — Colin Gans used the lens with the Sealux 180F dome port for wide-angle work, demonstrating its compatibility with the popular Nikon D300 system (2008) ([41]).
-
D7000/Nauticam review — Alex Mustard used the Tokina 10-17mm with Nauticam’s 4.5” mini dome as his primary wide-angle lens. Sample images shot at settings like 10mm, f/9, ISO 200 demonstrated the system’s capabilities (December 2010) ([42]).
-
D7000/Aquatica review — Keri Wilk shot extensively with the lens behind Aquatica’s 9.25” Mega Dome, producing images at both 10mm and 17mm focal lengths and even using it with a Magic Filter for ambient-light wide-angle work (February 2011) ([43]).
-
Subal ND7000 review — Andrej Belic used the Tokina 10-17mm “for wrecks” behind Subal’s 9” dome with an 18mm extension ring (September 2011) ([44]).
-
D7100/Subal review — Alex Mustard called the Tokina 10-17mm one of the “versatile lenses… highly suited to underwater subjects.” He noted that Subal did not send him a mini dome or zoom gear for the lens, preventing him from testing “this important combo” (December 2013) ([45]).
-
D500 review — Adam Hanlon used the Tokina 10-17mm as his primary wide-angle lens for the month-long D500 review in Raja Ampat and Lembeh, paired with a Zen 170mm dome. Reef Photo and Video supplied the lens specifically for the review. Multiple sample images demonstrate continued DX relevance in 2016 ([46]).
-
NA-D500 housing review — Adam Hanlon again used the Tokina 10-17mm, noting the lens was shot in Raja Ampat at settings like f/8, ISO 2000 (November 2016) ([47]).
-
D500 mid-term report — Don Silcock confirmed the D500 remained his primary system two years after purchase, implying continued use of the Tokina 10-17mm (February 2019) ([48]).
-
Sea & Sea dome review — Morten Bjorn-Larsen tested the new Sea & Sea Universal Dome 210AR with the Tokina 10-17mm on a D500, using a 20mm extension ring, as late as 2020 ([49]).
Professional Endorsements
In the 2015 “Wetpixel Asks the Pros: Wide-Angle” survey, multiple professional underwater photographers cited the Tokina 10-17mm as their preferred or go-to wide-angle lens:
- Amanda Cotton: “I do love my Tokina 10-17mm when I am shooting on my Nikon D7000” ([50])
- Jean Bruneau (Aquatica technical advisor since 1990): “I was a big fan on the Tokina 10-17mm in DX format” ([51])
- David Barrio: “Tokina 10-17 for fisheye” as his primary wide-angle, paired with Nikon D7000 and D7100 ([52])
- Geo Cloete: “At present it’s the Tokina 10-17mm paired with Nikon D300” ([53])
Competition-Winning Images
The Tokina 10-17mm was used to create images that placed in major international competitions:
- Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2016 — Geo Cloete’s “Tentacle tornado” (Finalist, Under Water category), shot with Nikon D300 + Tokina 10-17mm at 10mm, f/14, ISO 200 in a Seatool housing ([54])
- Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2018 — Shane Gross received two Highly Commended awards in the Under Water category: “Shark sex in the shallows” (Nikon D90 + Tokina 10-17mm at 10mm, f/14, ISO 400, Aquatica housing) and “Beneath the blue” (Nikon D500 + Tokina 10-17mm at 11.5mm, f/22, ISO 1000, Aquatica housing) ([55])
Competitors
- Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8 DX Fisheye — Fixed 180° prime. Faster aperture and arguably sharper, but lacked zoom flexibility. The Tokina’s zoom range made it more versatile for underwater work ([56]).
- Sigma 10mm f/2.8 EX DC Fisheye — Fixed 180° prime announced in 2007. Sharper than both the Nikon 10.5mm and Tokina 10-17mm according to some users, with 1.8 cm close focus, but again lacked zoom flexibility ([57], [58]).
- Canon 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye — Canon’s later fisheye zoom for full-frame. Not a direct competitor on DX as it was designed for FX cameras.
- Tokina SZ 8mm f/2.8 E/X Fisheye — Tokina’s 2022 mirrorless fisheye for Sony E and Fuji X mounts. Manual focus, 10 cm close focus, but prime rather than zoom and lacking AF ([59]).
Legacy and Decline
The Tokina 10-17mm’s dominance was tied to the DX DSLR format. As the industry transitioned to mirrorless cameras from 2018 onward, the lens faced an existential challenge: it could not autofocus on Nikon Z cameras via the FTZ adapter ([60]), and Tokina never produced a native Z-mount version with zoom capability.
Despite this, the lens remained in active use well into the 2020s. Morten Bjorn-Larsen was still shooting it on a D500 in 2020 ([61]), and forum classifieds showed the lens and its associated dome ports continued to trade actively. The Nikon D500 kept the lens relevant as many underwater photographers held onto their DX DSLR systems even as the broader market moved to mirrorless.
The lens’s influence extended beyond its own lifespan. The concepts it popularized — fisheye zoom versatility, mini dome ports, CFWA technique, and compact travel-friendly wide-angle rigs — became standard expectations that manufacturers had to meet with newer systems like Nauticam’s WACP and WWL wet lenses.
