Pros: footprint; ring pleasant to use fire; detail / sharpness; chromatic aberration; bokhe; construction; brightness; colors

Cons: AF absent; infiltration powder; slight image distortion; flare; Canon "challenging"

Opinion: I do not want too much circled around, this non'è perspective "for all" in my opinion. It can give so much satisfaction as "frustration" if you are not aware of his "nature." Using it on Canon camera bodies, being completely manual type, can become very "challenging" for beginners or enthusiasts of photography, for those looking for the "click" stolen and immediate. I am sure that these "prerogatives" turn away many from this choice and I honestly think it's a real shame. To make the best use this perspective must be reflected on the shoot you want to do and you have to take all the time needed to prepare it. The focus ring is really valuable, perhaps less geared down because of its precision and although it helps to improve the "speed" in finding the proper focus you will find that this aspect can introduce inaccuracies and in turn take longer than you as3Buso. After this long "introduction" I speak a little optics. The pros and cons have not read them, but I want to focus on ease that dust from entering into the optical path as the optical complex at "bellows" non'è sealed up front that flows freely in the main diaphragm. I tried to compensate by using a good filter that considering the considerable size has a cost. The absence of AF is a "crime" given the results that I'm getting and the overall sharpness. Apart from a bokeh for a great perspective of this cost and a "colorimetry" hot which keeps "the imprint" Samyang impressed me how optically sincere. Chromatic aberrations are very contained. A slight image distortion is perceptible only if you look for and non'è annoying at all (is corrected in post production with ease, but I have not yet felt the need). Therevignetting I never considered a problem, and frankly I do not see a lot. When there is light side, even using the lens hood, known some flare on the image but nothing annoying. The building is great, the nuts are precise and easy to use. Weight and size I like a lot in conjunction with my setup. I took photos under certain conditions convey a sense of "magic" and in conjunction with the 6D and systems with Full Frame sensors conisdero it an attractive choice. Ultimately perspective from "amateurs", not a reference but a sincere and honest product that will "warm hearts" of those who will have the zeal to choose it. Not recommended for beginners or those who does not harbor any desire to have a thought and reasoned approach to photography. Not for all. Compared to the "fifty" Canon this offers much more but as against has no immediate learning curve / use because of a focusing system pleasant fire, but all too accurate. personalmente I initially just "adopted" and then make him the "prodigal son." It gets better at higher costs but I love it (and in the past I have also owned the Sigma 50mm F1.4 Art).
