  • Awesome lens! Tack sharp. Amazing price for an 85mm lens
Samsung is still on the bottom end of the popularity polls in terms of the newer compact mirrorless system cameras. Although, their newer flagship cameras are getting some good feedback. I love my NX300 but my only issue with it is that Samsung doesn't really have many third party lenses, so you better be expecting to dish out some good money to spend on the Samsung brand lenses. And my experience with the Samsung lenses have been amazing so far, but there was no way I could justify spending $900 on the 85mm prime lens. That's where this Rokinon version comes in. It's SUPER FAST with a f/1.4 aperture. You get some insane 'bokeh' in your shots at wide open and portraits look crisp and clear. The quality of the lens is superb. For such a low budget lens, the build quality is durable and looks and feels like a much much higher priced lens. There are of course, some downsides. Although I appreciate the build quality, the weight of the lens is pretty massive and it tends to weigh me down quite a bit. Now, it's better than carrying around a DSLR AND a heavy lens at the same time, but it looks and feels so clunky on my rather compact NX300. Weight aside, the lens is MANUAL FOCUS ONLY. I know some people gave it low stars just because of that, but note, if it doesn't say "AUTO FOCUS" then it's a manual lens. Always. "Automated" does not mean "AUTO FOCUS". Just know that for future reference. But really, the pros and cons are quite a short list. If you're a professional photographer, maybe that list is longer, but I'm sure even pros will absolutely love this lens. One thing is for sure, you HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO SHOOT MANUAL. There's no way around it. If you think this lens does not deliver on quality of images, you are not using it right. Plain and simple. This is coming from an amateur photo enthusiast. I do my homework. And I will say, I've taken some of my best out of camera shots with this lens! I don't really recommended for "portraits" like of family and children, however. It is better for macro photography and close ups. But if you want a super blurred background, this lens delivers on that exceptionally well. I can't compare it to the $900 Samsung equivalent, but for $600 less, I'll say it's a pretty damn good deal. ... show more

  • A Bugatti Veyron's performance under an old VW Beetle's body!
Style: Nikon AE
The first time I opened the package and held the lens, it felt heavy, reassuring and it had (and still has) this sweet smell of a new expensive equipment. Onto the construction of the lens, it seems to have metallic parts on the base, which is really nice, the focusing ring is rubber, not plastic like some cheap lenses, and the only cheap feeling parts are the head, the front and rear lens caps and the hood which are all plastic and feel kinda flimsy. But on the performance side, it's like some of the other reviewer said, it's just plain wonderful and is well worth every penny! The sharpness at f/1.4 is to be seen to be believed, handles chromatic aberrations really well and it's not that hard to manual focus on it, even at f/1.4 (I guess I've already practiced enough before, as I was expecting this lens a long time ago). Of course, as I stepped down on the aperture, the sharpness was even more pronounced. The images produced are also very pleasing, good contrast, colors... and the Automatic Chip seems to have no issues confirming the focus point. If you're comfortable with manual focusing, then save yourself about $1300 on Nikon's 1.4G version or about $550 on Sigma's. You won't regret it! UPDATE 5/8/2013: After almost one month with this lens, I found myself to enjoy MF more than AF now! Sometimes, when I have my other lenses on, I just automatically switch them to MF because I can get exactly the results I want every time. In some ways, I also began to be more patient about how to photograph the things around me, as opposed to the "shooting and hoping" effect that came with the joy of quick AF... Naturally, when I have to shoot events, I would switch to the AF equipped lenses to avoid any accidents, but at each occasion where I have time to think, I would just go back to MF and enjoy the moment. I'm truly glad I came across this lens, it's kind of like owning a Zeiss lens (from my experience on playing with a Zeiss 50mm f/1.4 Planar) but a cheaper version. Oh, I also replaced the front lens cap with a Nikon version and now, the lens feels totally nice and I don't have to take it off to remove or move the lens hood around (which was a pain with the lens cap that came with it). ... show more

  • Great value for the price
Style: Nikon AE
I got this lens because I wanted a portrait lens that I could use in low light situations. After reading many positive reviews and the affordability of this lens, I decided to give it a try. This lens comes with a small cloth bag and a lens hood. I noticed the lens itself is actually small compared to similar Nikon and Canon 85mm f/1.4 lens, and the construction of the lens is very good. Although the lens itself is constructed well, the lens hood and cap are rubbish. The lens hood is made of cheap flimsy plastic and lens cap is made in such a way you have to remove it to put the lens hood on. I have replaced the lens cap with a Nikon 72mm lens cap and it works just fine. The pictures taken with lens are very nice and the bokeh taken at f/1.4 is very pleasant. I did notice some CA in some of my pictures, but this is only in extreme cases. The lens is a manual focus, but it's very easy to focus and the focus confirm works very well with my D700. I have only had this lens for about a week, but so far my impressions of this lens are very favorable. ... show more
