Review on πŸ“· Samyang 35mm f/1.4 ED AS UMC AE Nikon F Lens - Superior Performance and Optimal Versatility by Hideo Ebara ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

Do not expect a miracle, working on 1.4 is not comfortable. You have to close at least 2. Buy this lens only for single-frame cameras. If you have a crop, then the usual cheap Nikon 35 f1.8 shoots better, and it will also catch the focus itself. It makes sense to take this lens only for full-frame cameras, combined with an ardent desire to save money.

Pros
  • Relatively cheap, many offers on the secondary market. Nice picture, starting from f4.
Cons
  • Heavy like a Soviet tank. At f1.4, it lathers noticeably and unpleasantly. Straight foo. On f1. 4 vignette shows itself strongly.
