Samyang 12mm f/2.0 NCS CS

Pros: Sharpness, colors, lightness, construction, character, filter thread, psychedelic

Cons: I don't know at these figures, doesn't have the contacts to communicate with the machine body

Opinion: Purchased for Fuji X-T1 and X-E2S in The Walimex Pro version (they seem to be the same) on Amazon Warehouse Deals (so double deal) I have to confirm all the positive reviews posted on the "tube" by different photobloggers. First of all, this lens - which was made specifically for ML - is very light and perfectly responsive to the philosophy of this series of mirrorless fuji: fair prices, small size (my cervical thanks, the Nikon DSLR kit rests...), sharpness already from f:2, faithful colors and above all CARATTERE to sell. Already the jpeg are great freshly baked, if you want to correct in PP and eliminate a bit of vignette (it's a 12mm!) and reduce that bit of distortion (it's a 12mm!) there is for all tastes. Aberrations I do not seem to see (I do not go to enlarge to 300%, I do not care...), something will be there but it does not concern me, BLURO (fantastic to play with the prospects) instead beautiful, minimum distance of focus around 20cm. The only feature of this series of lenses (I had two, one I sold the second I hold it very tight) is the calibration of the infinity focus indication. To focus indefinitely you do not have to get to the end of the race (I recommend gentle movements) but stop a little before (god, on the first lens was true, this that I own now instead is perfect, go and understand...). Concluding a lens to have in a travel kit, from street, from architecture. I mean, I'm going to HAVE. Small note in the margin: some FUJI wide lenses - which I would instinctively prefer to this - left me cold, this one instead won me over immediately.
