Tokina ATX 80-200mm 2.8 older version?

Hello again

I would like to know for the Tokina ATX 80-200mm 2.8 SD AF lens. I think this is the older one before the PRO series came. But is there any quality or performance difference?. I am going to get one since the price was really good. I got good reviews on the newer PRO lens, but the older one do not see often and don't know how it performs.

thank you..

Optically, this lens is a poor cousin to the ATX Pro version. Additionally, the auto focusing is rediculously slow.
