SV: Hoya lenses
I don't think it is. Tokina is a Hoya costumer - among many others.

Re: Hoya lenses
As I understand it Hoya supply the glass that others then make into a complete lens.

I understand that there were a few Hoya lenses back in the 70's. Nothing special, but not crap either. -Adam Peter McIntosh wrote: Hi, Does anyone have any information on Hoya lenses?

I don't think Hoya sells lenses under it's own name, they own Tokina. Peter McIntosh wrote: Hi, Does anyone have any information on Hoya lenses? Not filters - lenses. Specifically ones with K mounts.

But they used to. Hoya and Tokina only hooked up in the 90's. -Adam P. J. Alling wrote: I don't think Hoya sells lenses under it's own name, they own Tokina.

Normally I'd point to Monahans Medium Format Megasite, but it seems to have been abandoned. It maintained the * Third Party Lenses Resource Megasite Home Page with *quite a few legacy pages about 3rd party 35mm lenses.

Re: Hoya lenses
Try Tokina, which is owned by Hoya... DagT - There was much discussion of this at dpreview some time ago. The gist was that Tokina is not owned by Hoya. But they jointly market together, at least in the U.S., with Kenko (THK). Joe -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
Re: Hoya lenses
This is the sort of info I was looking for. I probably should have added that I was interested in 35mm lenses. As I thought, not a recent thing. Interesting - I hadn't come across the wayback machine before. Quite handy! Many thanks! Ciao, Peter P. J.

RE: Hoya lenses
I cant comment on that one, but I think hoya HMC and tokina RMC lenses are the same thing and I have several Hoya HMC/ Tokina RMC lenses that are excellent. They made a really good 28-85 F4, 35-105 F3.5 and 100-300 F5.6 that were identical looking to the tokina RMC versions and like I said, excellent (when stopped down a little bit like nearly all zoom lenses). I have had them in both M42 and PK mounts. These date from early 80's just before the Tokina AT-X series was launched. jco -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob W Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 3:41 PM To: 'Pentax-Discuss Mail List' Subject: RE: Hoya lenses I had a Hoya 135mm lens in K-mount in the early 1980s.
