Testing a Tokina 28-70mm

Nikon-mount RMC Tokina 28-70mm f4 lens (SN 8444718) adapted to the NX1.   Took it out for a few photographs today.  The adjustment ring closest to the camera (not the aperture ring), sets the focal length (28mm-70mm).  The wider ring toward the from of the lens is for focusing.  

Note: I noticed when taking long distance photographs, I had to back-off infinity to achieve focus.

This is a good sharp lens for it's age.
