Sharp & High Value: New 14mm Samyang UMC Aspherical mounted to Canon 5DMKII
The latest UMC/aspherical version of this lens is sharp, fun and good in low light. BUT know that it is not auto - focus, aperture or IS ... however for many folks this won't be a problem.

AWESOME PRODUCT AND GREAT VALUE!

Mission Accomplished
As a serious amateur landscape photographer, I find this lens to be an excellent choice. It yields razor sharp imagery with extreme depth of field on my D800E. This lens is one of the best price to value propositions on the market today.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Excellent sharpness
- Rugged
- Strong Construction

Samyang 14mm f/2.8 ED AS IF UMC
Although it can be used on both 'full frame' and APS-C DSLRs, Samyang's 14mm f/2.8 ED AS IF UMC lens is best suited to 'full frame' DSLRs, where it covers a maximum angle of view equal to 115.7 degrees and can focus down to 0.28 meters (28 cm).

Very good value
Excellent optical performance with rugged construction. No electronic connection to the camera, so manual aperture and focus. Better on mirrorless cameras where the manual aperture is not a problem. Good value.
Pros:
- Durable
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy

Sharp with correctable distortion
Sharp, wide correctable distortion, Nikon version with AE chip gives exposure, changing f stop and shutter speed from camera, manual focus but there is focus confirmation dot. For landscapes at F11 the depth of field is huge and I leave it to infinity focus.

Amazing Bargain for a Wide Angle
I love the wide capability of this lens, although it can be tricky to tell if things are in focus even with an external monitor. I have used it to shoot a music video in some abandoned castles and Ireland and it worked perfectly for some creepy shots and haunted effects.
