Review on Samyang SY12M-FX-BK: Superior Ultra Wide Angle Lens for Fujifilm X-Mount Cameras in Classic Black Color by Ryan Lawson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very sharp wide angle prime lens for Fuji XT-2

I bought this for a trip to the Southwest US with my new Fuji XT-2. It worked great for my wide angle landscape shots with incredibly sharp images from foreground to infinity (see attached images). Although fully manual, it works perfectly for landscape shots with a tripod and is intuitive. Focus peaking with Fuji also makes it very easy to check what will be in focus when composing. It looks very well made and super light. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone who needs a sharp wide angle lens for Fuji X-mount cameras. The filter size is 67mm which also makes it a great complement to the Fujinon 16mm f1.4 lens and 18-135 lens mm for an easy travel kit (all with the same size filter!).
