Nice and easy to use? Recently spent too much on other things, so taking some time off now before buying this lens. biggrin.gif

woah sweeeeet!

Might consider this lens. laugh.gif

So far the only user here who uses that I know of is Reno7 only.

Btw, does the 2.5k per thread still apply in 2015? fruitie

Just got it last night so I only took some test shots on the way back from the shop.

Some observations thus far

- For subjects far away like buildings and MRT station.. focussing is not an issue. Though infinity is not really at the infinity mark on my copy.

- Close street style grab shots a bit more difficult at night since have to shoot very close.

- Soft corners @ f2

- I can handheld 1/8sec shots flex.gif flex.gif

samyang 12mm is very good. i have a good time testing my friend lens..

my opinion.. this lens is best for still subject i.e landscape, architecture etc.. but for a moving subject, it could be a challenge..

the only thing that is holding me back from getting this lens.. simply samyang cant auto focus.. i need wide lens for shooting an event.. so auto focus is a must have for me..

(i know the dual window for peak focusing is handy, but no time to manually focus everytime during event)

but for a wide n fast lens.. especially for its price, overall this lens is a good to have lens

Same goes to my copy, this is a common issue for samyang 12mm. The infinity mark is located at the wrong position.

Ya genuine product, but you need check him with stock or not. And I found Lowyat plaza got one shop lot selling same cheaper price like him.
