The AT-X 11-16 f/2.8 PRO DX II has an aspherical element, a new coating for improved performance and a Silent Drive-Module (SD-M ) autofocus motor which is equivalent to the Nikon AF-S system, which means it can be used wih Nikon SLR cameras that don't have an integrated AF motor such as the D3100 and D5100.

The lens has nine aperture blades and is constructed of 13 elements in 11 groups with a filter size of 77mm.

The minimum focus distance is 0.3m (11.8") so it will need a diopter for use with a dome port.

The Nikon version is expected to start shipping in March with the Canon version to follow in July. The Japanese price is listed at 90,000 yen.
