I have full frame bodies. I bought the Tokina 11-20 for my new D500. The Tokina was useful for a 20mm-ish FL on FF when I didn't carry my 14-24. I liked the 17-20mm range of the Tokina so well on FF that I bought the (somewhat smaller objective) Nikkor 17-35 F2.8.
So now the 11-20mm Tokina and 85mm F1.4 Nikkor live together in a D500 bag which gets little use (I prefer my FF D5/D4s bodies). However, I thought the idea might be useful, if only temporarily, to other readers.
The 11-20mm Tokina has a lot of glass (82mm filter) for a crop lens. Likely, the lens' designer decided over covering the crop format was one way to make a sharp WA lens. That also means, at the more tele end of the zoom, it also covers FF.
