The D3300 does not have the necessary 'screw drive' for focusing. That starts with the D7000 series of DX Nikons and upwards.
The Tokina atx-i 11-20mm F2.8 CF for Nikon F mount incorporates internal Silent-Drive focusing Motor (SD-M) in combination with precise GMR sensor to allow the lens to AF accurately and fast.

Pay close attention to what Uhaas2009 said. I don't think the 11-16mm Tokina will work on the D3300. Your camera needs lenses that have a motor in the lens, such as Nikon SWM lenses, in order to have autofocus.
Shooting landscapes and astro photography, you could get by with it using manual focus.

Tokina are good lenses. They are D (aperture ring) lenses and its screw drive focus. I don’t know if you 3300 have this option

I bought it a few years ago and use it to shoot Astro photography and some landscapes with it. Out of the many lenses I have, I really like this one alot. I have a D7200 and all pictures are excellent. You will not be dissappointed.
Thanks for your reply. I'm glad to read you're happy with the 11-20mm F2.8 lens for astro and landscapes. If you bought it a few years ago, you may have a previous model. I read this was an upgraded version, and it was just released in July 2020. It is featured as a "new product" on Tokina's website.

Anyone using this lens? I am considering this wide angle lens for landscapes and astro photography. I have also considered the Tokina atx-i 11-16mm F2.8 CF. However, the reviews for the new 11-20 are impressive. It’s more expensive than the 11-16, but likely worth it for the extra zoom. I shoot with a Nikon D3300. My current lenses are Nikon 35mm, 18-55mm and 55-200mm. Wouldn't this be a nice addition? Comments welcome.

I’d say too cautious. Don’t overthink it. If you want to get out in the cold winter or hot summer, do it. Just enjoy yourself!

Am I missing something here? I'm not sure why you would need to apologize. You posted in the Photo Gallery didn't you? Not Photo Analysis. What's going on here, could someone please explain lunch for the admin....?

Is that a feature that you think would be better suited with an upgrade over your D3300? I did already browse through your "Back Button Focusing" topic in the Main Photography Discussion. I looked at a couple of the youtube videos, and it appears to be viable with the D3300. I haven't tried it yet. Have you tried it? If so, what do you think?

I have the Nikon D3300, and I like it. But, I'm a newbie, of sorts. I've only owned it for a year. It's my first DSLR, and I haven't fully learned its capabilities. I was curious what functions you thought it was lacking, and what you had in mind to replace it.

Well done, for a smart phone. My iphone 4s wouldn't take that good of a photo. I wondered if you were using a DSLR. Specifically the D3300. I looked at some of your other posts, and you often inquired about the Nikon D3300. That's the camera I'm currently using.

Curious. What are you going to upgrade to?

Nice shot. I like it. I'm curious. Specifications? Aperture, shutter speed, ISO would be great. Camera and lens specs, too. This really helps me learn what settings work in various scenarios. Thanks!
