The Tokina atx-m 56mm f/1.4 is a prime lens built for Sony E mount APS-C mirrorless cameras, sitting in the standard focal length range at 56mm.

With a 52mm filter thread, it works easily with a wide range of commonly available filters. Weighing just 315g, it remains a lightweight and practical addition to any APS-C Sony E mount kit.
