Tokina 28-70 ATX Pro looks washed out

I couldn't find the previous thread. It's Monday.

Anyway, here's some screen grabs comparing the Tokina 24-70 2.6 zoom to my Olympus 14-35 2.0 zoom, both exposed at 2.6, . You can clearly see that the Tokina has a washed out look compared to the Olympus. Is this normal for this lens? And no, the washed out look doesn't drop when I iris down the lens.

The Olympus lens has higher contrast compared to the Tokina lens.

You should be able to add contrast in post to the Tokina footage to make it look like the higher contrast Olympus footage.
