the samyang 12 2.8! I dare you to try it on your FF!
“The other maker of no consequence” is Samyang the actual manufacturer of these rebrands Rokinon , Bower etc
Ken, any review you make is a treasure to view….OT – when you work out the D850 please create a video – I just cancelled mine at B&H
Theoria, I have the mk I version already. Its pretty good to me. Would you upgrade to the mk II, worth the upgrade??
would you recommend the Samyang 135 f2 UMC ED ? i found it’s 250$ good condition
Have been enjoy mine for years now. Color saturation is amazing. being wide makes it sharp. You are correct f8 is a good starting point.
Been waiting for you to give this lens a shot for a while.
Will you review the Zeiss Touit lenses? A good deal in the US according to Fujirumors
For each Samyang made they get money from the government, that’s why the lenses are good and also being cheap.
Samyang’s 14mm/2.8 besides distortion (horrible), is also a rather good lens. Better than Nikon’s 14mm/2.8D 😛
hi. did you try the samyang 12mmf2 and what do you think about it?
Good review.
Yp 12mm / 2 for fuji review would be nice 🙂
Love listening to you, you’re hilarious. Thanks for an honest assessment.
Angry sounds like he’s getting more mellow with time..
what does the 16mm fx fisheye look like on a crop sensor nikon??
I have enjoyed mine for a pretty long time. I may grab the newer version with the removable hood down the road, but my copy of the first version is still working well
Review the 12mm Samyang F2 Please 🙂
What about others is there a 35mm f1.4?
Thanks for being honest as usual! Another lens ‘brand’ for them is Bower, i think they use different branding in different regions.
Would I need to make changes in the X-T2 menu when using the Samyang 8mm manual lens?
So would you recommend this over the 10.5? Or should you just save up for a 10.5?
“Nikon makes the best fisheyes” ?
Seriously?
I am very tempted by the Rokinon 12mm f2 version II. Does someone have tried it?
Hi dude, great vids btw! What would be the benefit of having the metabones adapter with this on the Fuji? I wanna know know if I should buy it as I’ve love this fisheye!
If you’re calling it an eight it must be damned good. I guess as vers 2 is designed for mirrorless, they don’t need to use a retrofocus design.
wowowow wow new shirt?
