Default Tokina 12-24mm F4 Test Shots

Been testing this new lens and I'm actually beginning to like it. This are random photos taken from the roofdeck of the parking garage at work and some in Wilmette and the Bahai Temple.

Nice shots. I have the lens, probably the previous version, and like it. I need to work with it more - to learn to shoot better with a wide lens. These look great, and the light in 9 is perfect.

are these straight out of camera? I think they look just fine.

(I moved this to the right forum)

I wish I could say that they're SOOC. So no, there's some PP involved but generally the originals weren't bad. I'm actually beginning to like this lens.

Nice. What software did you use for perspective correction?

Thanks. Didn't do any lens correction here. Actually, I tried it in Photoshop and using the D90, Nikkor 12-24mm profile and it didn't do anything to it. It didn't even move. So I just left everything alone. I did upgrade the firmware on the D90 supposedly to correct distortion problems but I don't know if it has anything to do with it.
