2007-02-10 Thread Jens Bladt
I don't think it is. Tokina is a Hoya costumer - among many others.

 Hi,

 Does anyone have any information on Hoya lenses?  Not filters - lenses.
 Specifically ones with K mounts.  I've googled and yahoo-ed, but to no
 avail.

 Ciao,

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.

I don't think Hoya sells lenses under it's own name, they own Tokina.

But they used to. Hoya and Tokina only hooked up in the 90's.

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).

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,

I had a Hoya 135mm lens in K-mount in the early 1980s. It wasn't crap,

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.
