Pros: Good construction, good yield, great in relation to the price

Cons: a bit bulky, but a 14 mm FF can certainly not be compact.

Opinion: Bought to replace the Samyang MF of the same focal length, which had suffered a serious injury (ended up on the ground with serious damage to the hood and the front lens). The yield is very good, the distortion, sensitive but acceptable for the type of lens, is less annoying than the "mustache" of the Sammy MF, however easily manageable in PP. The AF works well, the flare, considering that with a 14 mm it is difficult not to stick the sun inside the frame, is acceptable. If you love wide angles pushed and you know how to manage perspective aberrations, it is a really tasty lens.

Pros: General Quality, Flare Management, Sharpness, Colors,

Cons: Fire ring, Firmware update,

Opinion: The best fixed wide angle I have tried so far in my opinion underrated, better than the 14mm of the sigma. I use it to photograph interiors and I had a nice feedback with this Samyang tried also in other circumstances is very good. Needs firmware update otherwise it interacts poorly with the camera body. If updated it will never disappoint you. Excellent yield, colors and flare management manages to make the photos very authentic by bringing out the colors. The focus ring makes the same turn it is easy to change the focus by mistake, this lens was made for professionals, so who already knows all the mechanism of manual focus. It goes step by step thanks to the internal electronic engine once known it will be fun to use it. The autofocus is very fast and accurate among the best. Although on wide-angle I do not think speed is essential. Lightweight, suitable for a wide range of photos including night photographs. VOTE 10!

Pros: Construction, compact size, overall quality

Cons: MF bezel, no correction profile for Lightroom

Opinion: I was lucky enough to find it on Amazon at 480 new, during a period of discounts. After 5 months I can be satisfied, the quality is so much. I used it a few times for landscaping and a lot for night with the Milky Way. The chromatic aberrations are there, but manageable: in comparison with the sammy 24mm f1.4 and 12mm f2 it is easier to correct them. The thing that amazed me is the focus: for me it is the first lens with fully electronic af. Accustomed to canons and sammy mf, it seemed uncomfortable not to have a ring that would adjust the focus physically. Here, in fact, everything takes place through an engine electronically controlled by the ring, and focusing on the stars you can see how the change takes place in small steps. In fact, during the night I had to identify the precise position well, since the adjacent positions were out of focus. The compact dimensions are against any anti-condensation thermal bands: they can be put covering part of the ring and part of the hood, but you risk sending out of focus at the slightest movement. Luckily this year I always had a bit of wind and I didn't need the thermal bands. The sore point of this lens is the absence of the correction profile. I know there is for some camera bodies, but the Ef version used on Eos Rp is not included. Consequently, the correction of the vignetting must be done manually.

Pros: Construction, sharpness, autofocus

Cons: Very sensitive manual focus ring, docking station for firmware update

Opinion: Bought to replace the Sigma 10-20 in the switch from Sony a58 to A7II. Used for architecture photos. What I like: solid construction, weight and reasonable size, great sharpness (even at the edges, closing a little), colors. What I like less: in manual focus, the focus ring is very sensitive and moves too easily, the firmware update is only possible with an expensive and difficult-to-find proprietary docking station, difficult to mount filters. The distortion is there but it is quite moderate, much much better than the manual version 2.8 but a little more than the Voigtlander 15 and the Laowa 15, however more than acceptable and totally correctable in Lightroom. Pretty content vignetting (much better than the Voigtlander). Always sharp in the middle, drops slightly at the edges, but stopping a little you always get incomparably better results than the Sigma 10-20. I had doubts about the "variable" quality of the Samyangs, but my copy is great. In general I am very satisfied, For the price paid (390 euros half-new) is a great goal. I don't use autofocus often, but having it at the time is still a great convenience.

Pros: Optical yield, High-level finishes, solid Construction.

Cons: Focus Ring Little "braking", lack of any indication of distances on the barrel, lack of a "bottom-stroke" signal.

Opinion: Purchased to replace the well-known (and already GOOD) manual version, you immediately realize that you are in front of a professional object. The price for CANON is almost double but I think the money is well spent: the optical scheme has been modified and enriched with "glass" Valuable. The appearance is solid, the finishes are of a high standard, the coupling bayonet is perfect (with rubber gasket). The front cap no longer has the rudimentary appearance of the old one and fits perfectly on the lens hood. The yield on the whole frame is very good and was corrected the distortion to "whisker" present on the previous model. The autofocus is very fast and practically silent. In my opinion, the only faults concern the focus ring: 1) on my specimen, it is totally "wild" and does not oppose any resistance to Rotation. It may seem like a merit, but it is not because you can inadvertently change the focus simply by supporting the lens with your left hand. 2) is missing any reference on Distances. In daytime photos This is not a problem, but for astrophotography (where it is in manual because the automatism often does not work properly) know where the infinity would not Spoil. Tried for a few hours in the "real world" I understood better what is wrong: missing a "signal" indicating that they have reached the MAF maximum or minimum. In other words: in the CANON rotating the focus ring you come across a kind of "step" that warns us to have arrived at the extremes of the focing for that Objective. On the samyang, This step is not there: in practice you can rotate the ring infinite times in both directions without warning any signal to have arrived at the Bottom-ladder. If with the autofocus in daylight the thing can be irrelevant, with low light/at night and focuser in manual is rather annoying not knowing what we are doing...
