pubblicata da StefanoConti March 15, 2012

Pros: Very robust, exceptionally sharp, very bright, low price.

Cons: Lack autofocus, does not record exif data.

Opinion: I bought this lens after reading several reviews that extolled the sharpness, to photograph the northern lights. I was pleasantly impressed, for the price it costs is a great lens, very bright and with equal sharpness of lenses that cost five times as much. The only drawback, of course, the lack of autofocus and manual diaphragm. For those who love the vintage will not be a problem, I personally do a little 'effort, since it is a wide angle pushed to focus on foreground subjects compared to infinity with the single image of the eyepiece. It 'a lens that goes well with the scenery and photography stand where there are the times for the composition and adjustments. In my opinion, money well spent.

pubblicata da Bob70 March 16, 2012

Pros: excellent sharpness, very few aberrations, excellent value for money

Cons: vignetting really high especially at room temperature, deformation is very pronounced, poor resistance to flare, ring distances approximate.

Opinion: a surprise this objective because if it is true that it has so many flaws (listed above) it is also true that it has many advantages first of all is that it offers a very focal thrust and a brightness that has always been synonymous with high costs to a to say the least attractive price and quality with truly amazing to be so economica.E perspective 'perspective that from my point of view finds its place in landscape photography especially at night because of the light sin only on the impossibility of use filters ... however, for the price he and the possibilities it opens a goal definitely recommended.

pubblicata da Maurizio Pignotti March 16, 2012

Pros: Sharpness-BRIGHT-good resistance to flare

Cons: Vignetting at full aperture-geometric distortion

Opinion: My best photos have been around the world, everything about the Samyang 14mm superlens for the night, I always use all-in-hand, even with the optical canon, so to me, and no 'a failure the lack of autofocus, aperture control, stabilization, I do not interessa.Nitidezza to f5/f8 impressive, very bright, it costs nothing and gives me satisfaction that would give a lens from 2000 euro.Certo not 'suitable for architectural photography, but especially landscapes and landscapes at night I think that canon is the top, just above the nikon 14/24, but 'nikon you can not' canon mounted on the body unless you insert an adapter and you spend 2400 euro!! With regard to the exif data does not actually having electrical connectors does not release data, but it does not seem to be a big problem.

pubblicata da Balto68 May 10, 2012

Pros: Construction and fittings, excellent mechanical and ring maf very soft. A sense of robustezza.Ottima brightness and sharpness of Canon 5D MARKII.Aberrazioni color almost inesistenti.Ottimo price / qualità.Colori magnificent.

Cons: Scale of maf little precisa.Vignettatura pronounced diaphragms alti.Esposizione different between viewfinder and live view.Niente exif.

Opinion: Like others I bought the lens after several reports of positive performance compared to objectives blasonati.Sono was pleasantly surprised by the color rendering, the sharpness, and monitor after correction lens with the photoshop.A the annoying lack of exif data (except ISO and exposure time) the thing that catches the eye more (due to the fact that it is completely manual) is that exposure in the viewfinder does not reflect reality, but overexpose at least 2 stop.Questo you notice opening the live view instead exposes the image properly. Another curious thing but it probably does not matter that the body is in my possession detects it as a part 50mm.A these little things are solvable happy with your purchase made taking into account the price and compatibility with a full frame.Ovviamente is not a goal to be "photos on the fly" but need a bit of preparation to bring home a good scatto.Lo highly recommend it for landscapes especially at night due to the opening.

pubblicata da Marco Moffa August 02, 2012

Pros: Manual Focus, very sharp (even at room temperature), bright, no AC, resistant to flare and excellent color. Sturdy as a rock! Value / price unbeatable.

Cons: you can not mount filters, distortion.

Opinion: It 'a great lens, economical for its optical qualities. It 's really very clear already at f2.8 and this is an important factor for those who take pictures at night or in dark environments ... TA to the vignetting is not an oversimplification to f4 f5 and above, 6 becomes a blade, zero AC and flare. It is a manual focus lens and I think this thing a PRO, especially for people like me who often uses the hyperfocal ;) (I made marks on the barrel to remember all the hyperfocal distance for any f, really useful). Difficult to judge the bokeh of this lens ... to 14mm f2.8 exist? yes, only if you closeup .. and you will see a blur pleasant and delicate. The cons of this lens are the distortion (easily limitable in pp) and the impossibility to mount filters of any kind: the front lens is very large, and also projecting the optic has the built-in hood, fixed. I own this lens about 15 months and I think I keep it with me for long! It 's my favorite optical tied with Samyang 35mm f1.4 brother, and think that the Canon equivalent cost 7 times a Samyang 14mm and 3 times a Samyang 35mm f1.4 ... I hope that these are indeed lower than the equivalent Samyang canon (I do not seem, except for f), otherwise ... Samyang life! Superconsigliata, especially for sensors FF!

pubblicata da Giorgio Ardizzoni October 05, 2012

Pros: Solid construction, sharpness, colors, quality / price.

Cons: Vignetting evident in TA, distortion (easily corrected with Ps).

Opinion: Recently purchased and used on Nikon D800, I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality and performance. Sharpness and colors really good. Chromatic aberration virtually absent. Ring MAF very fluid. In addition, the Nikon mount version is equipped with a microprocessor that makes visible the Exif data, although for me it is not very relevant. The distortion is undeniably present especially at maximum aperture, it is easily corrected with Ps. I have not thoroughly tested the lens, but from first impressions, given the modest cost of the same, I think I made a good buy.

pubblicata da Beppe Reda October 21, 2012

Pros: Strength, sharpness, brightness, low price

Cons: Vignetting evident at room temperature, distortion, inaccurate maf

Opinion: I bought this lens with scetticità even though the reviews were, despite some known flaws, very positive. In fact has a very good brightness and sharpness, especially in night shots and being very thorough, it is suitable for any field is to shoot the starry heavens as the Milky Way is in panoramic daylight, maintaining exceptional clarity in detail with diaphragms very open. It has electric servo mechanisms, but the settings of the rings are easily accessible, perhaps a little less of the ring aperture. The focused at infinity requires a little more care and precision but can be solved with Live View of the room. I am more than happy with our purchase, considering its quality / price ratio.

pubblicata da Gianfranco Fontana October 26, 2012

Pros: clear - price - light - manual

Cons: lack of exif data. - Vignetting and distortion there are, incidentally we are talking about wide angle and even the most 'expensive sometimes suffer from these problems.

Opinion: I just got the Samyang, I must say that with this lens all manual I'm playing, since the cost of more 'than affordable, and above all seen that some friends of the site which I think is very good at using this lens with amazing results I decided to take the 14 mm, and 8 mm. - Have their difettucci but 'are happy with our purchase' cause it seems to me that the advantages far outweigh the flaws, I recommend it to those who want to play and make good shots, even fantastic shots.

pubblicata da Smp November 13, 2012

Pros: Excellent sharpness, good control of chromatic aberration, good build quality and price and a over the competition.

Cons: Significant distortion and vignetting.

Opinion: I got it recently, but I'm really very happy. I do very few architectural photography so do not bother me much, however, the large barrel distortion corrected albeit with some difficulty given the "whiskers". To hold it from the idea of ??good strength, amazing resolution and aberration control, discrete even bokeh. The value for money is excellent. Despite the lack of autofocus I would really recommend it, especially those dedicated to landscape photography.

pubblicata da Dennunzio Roberto December 03, 2012

Pros: sharpness and negligible cost

Cons: lack of scale pdc an Aperture

Opinion: I have not had chance to try it well, but I am already in love with him! very robust, ring the maf smooth and precise. geometric deformation of the APSC and very low as long as you do not put something very close to the lens, very sharp at f2.8 but already from 5.6 up becomes a real razor, the lack of f on an optical way is absolutely not a problem is part of the game! most noble canon 14mm does not offer more in terms of quality so why spend 6 times as much?

pubblicata da Aldone December 04, 2012

Pros: Fantastic resolution over the entire area of ??a camera FF as low as f / 5.6, but also to larger openings. Good behavior on all fronts. Very robust and accurate.

Cons: distortion "mustache" difficult to correct, but not with the great and cheap SW PTlens, which corrects the distortions of excellent architectural photography ..... even the extreme borders!

Opinion: In fact I bought the latest version in February 2012 with the initials Samyang 14 mm f/2.8 ED AS IF UMC and I do not know if it is the old model reported in this review. The difference between the two models (Samyang 14 mm f/2.8 IF ED MC Aspherical Vs Samyang 14 mm f/2.8 ED AS IF UMC) in qualitative terms, in particular as regards the flare, vignetting, and more resolution is very sharp. I've tried it in India and I was soddisfatissimo, just know how to behave! for photos from 1m to infinity, setting approximately 1.2 m and F / 5,6-8.0 you have everything in focus, from a few centimeters (0.5 / 0.6 m) to infinity. rnNon is a goal to play but to make us beautiful photos! As you can see the rest of this "post", already with the old version. Just understand how to feature site will post some shots, even with the differences between shooting and virgin processed with PT LENS.

pubblicata da Daniele Orsini February 22, 2013

Pros: Sharpness price ...

Cons: Excessive and strange deformations

Opinion: My experience with the Samyang 14 is counteracted ... on the one hand a great satisfaction for the wonderful images that churns out the other two questions: RN1) After a few months she did not put more focus ... sent in for service I waited almost two months to get it back ... RN2) distorts moltissinmo .... (I learned a definition that did not know ... distortion "in mustache" or "mustache" which is a kind of double distortion ... the center of the barrel to the sides bearing .... rnHo written to Fowa for enlightenment .. for now nobody answered ... rnOvviamente this distortion can be seen photographing architecture and still situations characterized by parallel lines ... rn Searching .. searching I found the software PTlens ($ 25), which seems to solve the problem .. I say seems because I bought a few days ago and I still have not fully tested in the worst case .... I had to do the first two steps .. with PTlens and then to finish with Lightroom

pubblicata da Maxphoto78 May 27, 2013

Pros: Angle of view, brightness, sharpness, costruzione.rnrnrn.

Cons: scale distances totally inaccurate, distortion, impossible (subjective experience) to focus with the optical viewfinder, incompatibility filters.

Opinion: From this point of view and little I am having trouble focusing, certainly is not my problem having little experience with this type of optical extreme and totally manual but in any case the distance scale focusing totally busted does not help ... rnquando but (using the live view) the image is in focus, the lens offers many soddisfazioni.rnSto seriously considering mounting the chip confirmation of focus (chip factory installed only for Nikon). rnAttualmente the price has increased because imported and officially guaranteed in Italy Fowa complete with a sticker on the hood.

pubblicata da Babu June 05, 2013

Pros: Bright, high sharpness, affordable price, very nice colors, focus ring pleasant to the touch, building good workmanship, no AC

Cons: ("ON CANON" No chip for confirmation MAF, does not record exif data,) ring diaphragms slightly soft, distortion, difference of 2 stops between viewfinder and live view

Opinion: How to start? for me this view is outstanding, comparing qualitàprezzo you have a winning combination, true wide-angle, panoramic I was able to admire the masterpieces, very bright (which usually means high price) with a similar price is mandatory to do a little thought in his favor , on FF (I currently use it on APS-C becoming a 22mm approx) has a bit of geometric distortion (especially visible in the architecture, while the landscape shows no signs of suffering) fortunately does not suffer from AC and above all is clean and razor sharp for me not against it enough to call into question, perhaps only the unforgivable lack of care MAF making it difficult, if not impossible to focus at night or without live view and tripod, so you must work hyperfocal
