Samyang 24mm FE tested by Marc Alhadeff: “For the price is is a good lens but not as good as the Samyang 35mm FE”

Share

Marc Alhadeff published the full review of the new Samyan 24mm FE lens:

For the price is is a good lens but not as good as the Samyang 35mm F2.8

It could be a nice wide angle complement to the Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 Di III RXD  if you can live with its shortcomings

If you have already the Sony FE 24-70 F2.8 GM and were shooting a lot at 24mm , don’t switch to the Samyang to get a lighter version, of same quality , you will be disappointed and you will better wait for a Sony Prime 24mm GM that should be announced in the second half of 2018

Laowa 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D with Luke Tscharke and review by ePhotozine

Share


Laowa 9mm f/2.8 APS-C E-mount lens is now available for preorder at BHphoto, Adorama and at VenusLens Store.

ePhotozine reviewed the new lens:

The Laowa lenses as a range are certainly very interesting, sometimes unique and always deliver the goods in terms of performance. Traditional metal construction does mean a higher price, but we have to choose whether the trade-off of quality of results balances out the cost/performance equation. This will obviously be different for different users.
What we get is the widest lens in its class, with a fast, bright f/2.8 aperture, that performs very well indeed.

In this video Luke Tscharke introduces you to the new Laowa 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D:
