Review on Samyang SY8M-C 8mm f3.5 Lens for Canon: Captivating Wide-Angle Perspective and Optimal Performance by Gordon Turman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fantastic lens

This is a fantastically small lens. Yes, there's nothing automatic, but Fisheye allowed me to set it and forget it, and it was very easy. For the price I got more than I expected and it takes amazingly clear pictures. It's also metal, and just by holding it in your hands you can tell it's a solid lens that won't bother you. As soon as I took it out of the box I drove a bit out of town and took this long exposure of the night sky and the only problem with this shot is the light pollution because I wasn't far enough from town. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get into landscape photography or fisheye photography but doesn't want to break the bank. I will be using mine for many years to come.

Pros
  • The lens has Ultra Multi-Coating to reduce flare
Cons
  • Some cons
