  • Awesome for Photographers on APS-C!!! Awesome for Photographers on APS-C!!!
Style: Canon
Ah, the long debate over what lens to buy. I have fought through this process on every lens I have purchased. Always wanting the best possible optics, features, and largest aperture that I can get without breaking the bank. I am just an amateur after all who doesn't make money on my photos. However, I do take my hobby very seriously, and what is worth doing if you aren't going to do it right! So on to my 35mm debate... and this was the most difficult lens choice I have come across so far. I shoot with a Canon crop. I have a good range of lenses now but realized that where I was lacking (severely) was in the 28-35mm (44-56mm full frame) range. I only had my 18-50mm kit lens to cover this range. That lens is sharp, but I have never been happy with the lens. No pop to the colors, slow aperture, etc. My top 3 choices to replace it: Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 (Non-VC) Sigma 30mm f/1.4 Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 I still believe any one of these would have been a great choice. All seem to get top notch reviews. The Rokinon, being newer and a bit of a specialty lens in the sense that it is a fully manual lens didn't have nearly as many reviews to go off of. However, many of the reviews stating it is as good as Canon and even Zeiss offerings. I would have loved the Tamron for the zoom convenience, but for me the better low light capabilities of the f/1.4 was far more important. The Sigma seemed to get some very positive reviews, but then also some not so positive reviews including on photozone. So it's the Rokinon as the winner. Obviously the biggest concern with this lens is the manual focus. How hard is manual focusing this lens? Well, it's a challenge. But I have been practicing with this lens on a very difficult subject (an 11 month old crawling baby!). There are certainly missed focus shots that ruin some pictures. But the more you use it, the easier it gets and the less focus issues you have. Let's face it, at f/1.4 even auto focus is going to miss an eye on a moving baby pretty frequently. Will manual focus be an issue for you? Obviously only you can decide that. But my opinion, is you will be so happy with the photos you do get in focus (don't worry, there are a lot in focus), that it will far outweigh the missed shots. My only experience with manual lenses before this one was the Rokinon 8mm, but that doesn't really count. You almost have to try to get that one out of focus due to the nature of the lens. At f/1.4, even a little bit of morning light through a closed window shade looks as good as studio lighting... Seriously. Now that is what I was looking for! Still wide enough on my crop to give me an excellent indoor lens with beautiful portrait capabilities. I enjoy my Canon 50 f/1.8 but is not wide enough for many indoor applications. Outdoors, the awesome Rokinon 35mm even close focuses so well that it can almost work as a macro lens. It takes beautiful, sharp, high detail images in every situation I have tested. It is a very large, heavy lens. I find that to be a good thing. I like the feel of a heavy lens so actually find that to be a positive. Images are gorgeous. I will post some images soon that I think are stunning that I took on my 2nd day using (still a long way to go in perfecting manual focus). So, crop sensor users out there looking for a FAST 50mm equivalent lens (or full frame looking for a 35mm), I highly recommend. Great for indoor, low light, portraits, landscape, near macro... heck anything but sports! Do yourself a favor and give it a try. And thank you to others who have taken time to review lenses. Huge help! ... show more

  • This is a great lens for an unbelieveable price!
Style: Canon
When I buy lenses I do look at the price tag, it's usually an indication to what kind of quality you're gonna get. Every once in a while though, you do come over stuff that is both cheap and of great quality, and this lens falls into that category. I heard rumours about these Rokinon lenses, and just decided to buy some, without even doing any research other than look at a few photos and reviews. I figured they were cheap enough to just try out, and if they weren't top class they would probably still be more than good enough if I just wanted to go crazy and run around like a fool in the mountains and take pictures without really worrying about "breaking" them. The mail came and I had a few new lenses to try out, and I must say I instantly fell in love. Great picture quality, very nice colors, nice crispyness, depth of field that was just as good as any other lenses I have. And I love that they are manual (which means you can't set your f-stop in camera, but rather on the lens itself. This is the way I work on film, and I just like it better, I feel I have better control). It's a fast lens (f1.4) which means you don't need a lot of light, and the outcome is great. It's still crisp, very little noise, great DoF. I think this lens is at it's best on f4-5.6, that's when it really competes with the really high-class, expensive lenses, but even at other stops the differences are minor. I mean, if this lens cost the same as a Zeiss, I'd probably go for a Zeiss (which is what I usually use for professional shoots), but since the price is around 1/4-1/5 of a Zeiss lens I really don't feel that I lose $1500 worth of quality, if you understand what I'm trying to say. I won't be surprised if the price of these lenses eventually go up. My advice is that you should always try a lens before you buy it. Go to your local camera store, bring your own camera, and try the lenses you're interested in, and also ask to try new stuff you haven't tried before. Do some research at home, learn a few things so that you know if the person behind the counter just tries to sell you junk or if he/she is actually someone to trust. Generally, you can trust the ones working at serious camera stores. ... show more

  • Great lens with a little bit of a learning curve
Style: Canon
I'm going to try and structure this review as efficiently as possible: Image Quality: It's a very close competitor with the Canon 35L; however, don't expect to get identical results. The Rokinon does a great job at 35mm f/1.4 - it'll provide the depth of field and speed that one would want at such a large aperture, while also satisfying tonal ranges with it's quality. The out-of-focus area, "bokeh," will not be the same creamy style as the 35L, a small compromise for a significant price difference. Remember though that this lens is manual focus, something that requires much practice and a possible change in your camera's Focusing Screen (so that the viewfinder will be brighter so that you can focus easier). For cinematic purposes, this lens is near-flawless. The focusing ring is very smooth and effective. Build Quality: The lens is built surprisingly well. Comparable to the 35L and any other top-tier lens in its category. Overall: I use this lens outdoors for both formal and candid portraits. If money was no object, of course the 35L would be my lens of choice primarily for its auto-focus. However, you really can't go wrong with this lens for the money you'll spend. I will be honest though, because of the manual focus, I find myself using this lens less than the rest. ... show more

  • Great lens
Style: Canon
This lens is fantastic. I have the canon 24-70 2.8 and this lens is far sharper. It is also sharper than the canon 50 1.4 lens. I cant tell any difference from my 100 macro lens. Color and bokeh are also excellent. Picked it up during the lightning deal and couldnt believe the quality at the price i paid. The focus ring is excellent. The hood is of good quality. The front cap is annoying. The aperture ring turns easy with a click for each half stop (except a couple are full stop). The lens feels solid. I considered the canon 35 L but i already have the zoom for those occasions that autofocus is a must. Manual focus takes a little practice but not that hard, as long as your target does not move too fast (i.e. toddler). You do need a camera with live view (and the zoom in feature for magnification) to focus accurately. The optical view finder is difficult to use for focus unless you have a special focus screen, which i dont think they make for lower end dslr. The best mode to use is aperture priority as the metering works in that mode. You can leave it on whichever aperture on the lens all the time including when composing your shot and the metering will be correct. You dont have to switch to 1.4 to compose/meter. The view finder can be a little dark at f5.6 and above but since i use live view to focus it doesnt really matter. I find the metering is most accurate when i turn off live view after focusing/composing and take the shot the traditional way without looking through the view finder. May have something to do with the metering mode in live view. Shooting directly in live view tend to underexpose for me with this lens (my camera is a canon t3i). Btw, my lens (canon mount) did not have any noise when moved up/down as some people have experienced. Built quality is excellent. ... show more

  • Perfection
Style: Canon
As I eagerly anticipated the arrival of the Rokinon 35mm f/.14 lens and took my shot with it I sensed right away that it was a worthwhile investment.. The lens is impressively sturdy. Provides a seamless manual focus feature that simplifies capturing images of professional quality. With its f/.14 aperture it produces bokeh effects and excels in low light conditions; moreover, its sharpness surpassed my expectations. It strikes a balance, between detail and softness in all the right places giving each photo a refined look. I'm impressed by how fast this lens became my favorite, for photography instead of my 50mm lens I used before it. The 35mm focal length is so adaptable. It lets me capture views without losing that special feel of prime lenses. Whether it's portraits or landscapes or product shots the Rokinon 35mm f/1. 4 has quickly become my choice in lenses and I'd definitely suggest it to anyone wanting to improve their photography skills. ... show more

  • Fun Fun Fun. Did I mention Fun!
Style: Canon
The lens body is made of high-quality plastic with a rubberized and damped focus ring. Metal mount feels solid mounting on my 60D. Some say Rokinon (Samyang) 35mm is not true 35mm as it is not as wild compare to other 35mm lens. Regardless, I love this focal length on my cropped sensor 60D. Focusing takes some getting used to. I have stock focus screen and focusing via view finder alone is hard for me at anything f/4.0 or faster because of the small DOF. Using live view I can nail it every time. When shooting outdoors, I usually just dial it to f/5.6 or f/8.0 and manual focus is actually faster, much faster, than autofocus. There are no need to focus-then-recompose. Just frame my subject, turn the focus ring and snap. I just have to practices with maybe 10 to 15 shots before I'm confident with my ability to focus at f/5.6. Manual focus with a manual lens is FUN! The large damped focus ring with long throw make a world of difference compare to auto-focus lens at MF mode. The image quality of this lens is unbelievable. If you're like me, not very good at photography for lack of talent, lack of time, or both. But found photography fun and enjoyable. You own yourself a chance to try using a manual focus lens; a true made-for-manual-focus lens, not just turn your auto-focus lens's switch MF. Shooting with this lens is fun. The cheap price and high image quality just some nice added bonus. ... show more

  • I got a really bad copy
Style: Canon
I bought the Rokinon 35mm for Canon on a Lightning Deal and I got a bad copy of this lens because all my test shots came out horribly. Very bad optics at f/2, which is where I will use it for night photography. My copy of the Rokinon 14mm produces sharp images wide open at f/2.8 so the results I got with the 35mm are very disappointing. Hopefully I will be able to obtain a good copy of this lens at some point because this one is definitely being returned. ... show more

  • What an impressive Lens!
Style: Canon
I bought this lens for my 7D. The image quality is super. In term of sharpness, contrast, color, it is far better than all of other lenses that I have a chance to use. As a test, I put a few objects (with readable text) on the table. I used many lenses to take many pictures of these objects so that the final pictures framed in the same way. I also used tripod for each shot. I enlarged the small section of text at 100% for comparision. Ronkinon 35mm F/1.4 produced best result, very sharp with super clarity. The produced pictures can be easily recognized as if it's taken by a very high class lens. Here how I rated (100 pts = best) this lens as compared to other lenses: (all lens were tested with its max aperture) 1. Ronkinon 35mm F/1.4: 100 pts 2. Canon 100mm F/2.8 Macro = Sigma 50mm F 1/1.4: 80 pts 3. Canon 85mm F/1.8: 75 pts 4. Canon 17-40mm L F/4 :70 pts 5. Canon 70-200mm L (non IS) at 70mm and 100mm F/4: 50 pts 6. Canon 70-200mm L (non IS) at 70mm and 100mm F/8: 60 pts The Canon 70-200mm L has been used extensively by my friend and it's fully functional without any defect. But it disappoints me a lot as compared to other lens. This is the manual lens and we need lot of practice to get subject in focus. Using viewfinder of 7D, most of pictures that were taken with this Ronkinon 35mm lens seems to be underexposure, 1-2 stops. But using liveview, what I see is what you get. I am not sure what caused this difference. I am still learning my 7D. Lastly, I am really happy with this lens and this should be my mostly used lens on my 7D. I plan to buy and adapter for my sony nex-5 to use with this lens in case I am lazy to carry my 7D. I highly recommend this lens. ... show more
