After trying the borrowed lens, I ordered my own. I used it in manual mode to shoot a soccer game and got some very nice shots. The lens is sharp all the way down to f2.8, and gives a soft buttery background blur when it is wide open. Now, I would not normally use a prime lens to shot a soccer game, but it was a good test. And, I shot it all MF, which was very easy to do with the nicely made focus ring.
Sidebar: The new lens was almost identical to my friend's older model. We found that the newer one worked a little better on his Canon, but both were the same on my Sony. We swapped lenses. We are guessing that maybe Tokina made on update to the electronics... ??
Pros:
1) f2.8
2) about $350
3) crystal clear images
4) sturdy, seems rugged
5) large focus ring
6) clear focus distance indicator
7) easily change from manual to auto focus
8) easily switch from macro to standard mode
Cons:
1) A little heavy.
2) The lens has an AF / MF toggle that is also the focus ring, so you might inadvertently change from one mode to the other.
All in all, for the price, a very nice lens, especially if you have a Canon, but very nice even on a Sony with an adapter.
2017-04-12 update: used the lens for several macro shots over the weekend. The pictures were very nice, and the lens focuses well at a distance about the length of the lens hood. I also took a few portrait shots in AF mode. The auto-focus is tricky, but if you are close to being focused, it works well enough. The lens supports face recognition on my A7 II, but does not support the auto eye focus mode.
there are a few....all with very good reviews. The Canon was great, smooth and accurate usm and real sharp, but I happened on the Tokina
and the reviews for it were excellent also. The price sealed the deal. I've found the Tokina to be as sharp as can be with lovely bokah.
It is a sturdy little lens that handles nicely once you get used to the push-pull auto-manual focus ring.
The slower (compared to the Canon's usm) autofocus is fine for shooting my grand kids' soccer matches and I mostly use manual for
macro shooting anyway. I'm very happy with the purchase and glad I did the research.
The quality of the pictures is as good or better than the Canon. I took some time researching and am very happy with the choice
I made. It has lived up to all the other reviewers comments.
This 100mm f/2.8 macro lens is a great value. The differences between it and the more expensive Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens (non-IS version) are minor at best; most significantly, the Tokina extends when focusing, whereas the Canon does not. At the short distances often involved in macrophotography (focusing on objects only a few inches away), extending the lens can be a minor annoyance, requiring you to pull the camera back a bit to keep the framing consistent, but you get used to it. (Competing lenses from Sigma and Tamron also extend while focusing.)
I have the Tokina mounted on a Canon 5D Mark II at the moment and it's doing a great job. Auto-focus is accurate, if somewhat slow compared to Canon's macro lens, but with the AF limit enabled this disadvantage is mitigated. The images it produces are razor-sharp, with good color and contrast, whether the subject is a bug a few inches away or distant buildings.
All in all, I'm happy with this lens. It's a solid, reliable product from a company with a long track record of producing high-quality lenses, and in value-for-money terms it's the best deal in its class.
Update, February 2010: If you want to use this lens with a Canon MR-14EX Macro Ring Lite or Canon MT-24EX Macro Twin Lite , you will need a step-up ring. These flashes are designed to mount on the end of Canon's original 100mm f/2.8 macro lens, which takes 58mm filters rather than the 55mm filters the Tokina uses. I am using the Kenko 55mm Step-Up Ring to 58mm and I find that the MR-14EX stays in place reliably as long as nothing bumps into it. And if you want to just leave the step-up ring on the lens at all times, then you'll need to replace the Tokina's lens cap with a 58mm one to fit the step-up ring.
I also purchased a Tamron SP Auto Focus 1.4x Pro Teleconverter for Canon Mount Lenses (Model 140FCA) and the combo works nicely. Haven't taken many shots with the combo, but in the few test shots I took AF worked in both standard and macro modes. For macro especially it was nice to get the extra zoom.
Great bokeh, as has been stated by others. Sample shots attached (no macro shots with this lens, currently.)

Ottimo anche per foto di prodotti, grande versatilità grazie all'apertura 2.8, e poche distorsioni grazie alla focale 100mm.
l'objectif fait direct très pro avec une excellente finition, il es assez lourd +-500g je dirais.
le ratio 1:1 est vraiment bluffant aussi, c'est une vrai découverte de ma part car c'est mon tout premier objectif macro.
Beaucoup son decu que l'objectif s'allonge avec la mise au point et non qu'il soit en interne perso ce détail ne me gène pas compte tenu du rapport Q/P
Autre info: Payer 280€ le 01/2018 / Les photo sont prise avec un canon eos 760d en ouverture f/2.8 ( pour la photo de la pièce, l'objectif étais a moins de 10cm ce que je trouve impressionnant )
