I bought this lens as a lightweight standalone lens for my Sony A7RIII while on vacation in Hawaii. I felt like $295 including tax wouldn't be a huge loss if the lens didn't work. I had my Humongous 24-105 F4 Sony lens with me in case the Samyang didn't work. I was blown away by the image quality and portability of this lens and the Sony 24-105 never left the case. It was a pleasure to walk around in this lightweight outfit. Images were sharp both in the center and at the edges, and at f2.8 there was only a slight fall off at the edges. I was able to crop the image with the 43 megapixel sensor without losing sharpness. The 35mm lens was the best choice for single lens shooting and covered all my imaging needs. Close focus was excellent allowing me to take amazing pictures of Hawaiian flowers. I am very happy with this lens and now my A7RIII is a lightweight camera and lens combo to take with me on long hikes. Highly recommended.
