Samyang T-S 24mm F3.5 ED AS UMC

Even if it sold at its $1,299 MSRP, the Samyang T-S 24mm F3.5 ED AS UMC lens would be an excellent value when compared with first-party lenses like the Nikon PC-E Nikkor 24mm f/3.5 ED ($2,199.95) and the Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II ($1,899).

Wide-angle field of view; Full-frame coverage; Very affordable; Shift, tilt, and rotation adjustment

Some barrel distortion; Should be stopped down for best image quality; Flare can be an issue

REVIEW: Samyang T-S 24mm f/3.5 ED AS UMC Lens Review

Handling and features Tilt-shift lenses are normally so expensive that many photographers cannot justify the cost, despite its benefits with control of the focal plane and of distortion.

Very Specialized, but good

This is not a lens for everyone, but if you're reading this, you know that. I find it very useful for three specific situations: To increase the depth of field without stopping down into diffraction (f11 max), To control perspective distortion when forced to aim upward (such as when photographing...

Really good quality images if stop it down a little.

Step it down a little and enjoy amazing quality images. Use it carefully and you won't have a problem. Im a full time pro with tons of the finest lenses and this was a really nice buy.

Don't expect to take a lens similar to Canon or Nikon T-S lens... Has very smooth focus ring. Maybe it could have a F32 aperture option. The lock buttons are solid but don?′t pass this idea. The box and package is not very good also.

Samyang T-S 24mm f/3.5 ED AS UMC review

Tilt-and-shift lenses feature the film-plane-movement control normally associated with large-format monorail or studio cameras. They are considered to be very specialist kit designed for architectural and landscape photography where adjustment of the plane of focus and distortion control are key...

As a tilt-shift lens option, Samyang offers a very economic opportunity with optimal quality for all photographers to taste tilt-shift experience. Unless users go "pixel-peeping", the quality is nice and sufficient. The ideal aperture is f/8 for best sharpness.

1; Very economic opportunity to use tilt-shift lens, 2; Nice build quality but one "tick" lower grade than Canon, 3; Nice aperture control ring, 4; Nice resolution when not tilted, not shifted; 5; Light-weight and sturdy

1. Lock switches release lock completely when you turn them a bit 2. Tilted and shifted images have lower resolution at the edges 3. Focus ring is very easy to rotate; not well damped

The ONLY choice for Sony!

Not quite as sharp as the very best primes, but still very acceptable.

If you need such a lens for specialist functions (i.e. architecture and product shots) then there is no other choice for a Sony.

Smooth Operation; Solid construction
