    • Totally Worth the $$$

Used this lens to capture the flame nebula and horsehead nebula (this is a cropped down image) and as you can see it produces clean and vibrant images. Get one

    • Recommended for photographers who don't mind manual focus.
Style: Sony A
This review is based on two weeks of use and about 650 exposures. Being my second Samyang manual lens my usage technique was already established based on the Samyang 85mm F1.4. This 135mm lens like the 85mm is all manual, no EXIF data (including distance, F stop and focal length) is transmitted to the camera. Some other mounts can be chipped for EXIF data and focus confirmation. Currently this lens is being used on my Sony A99SLT. The A99SLT provides focusing aids including viewfinder zoom and focus peaking and allows for easy and precise focusing. This technique however is much slower paced than a fast focusing autofocus lens, and not adept at capturing fast moving action. It will take some practice to get optimum results with this or any manual focus lens. The Samyang lens is of a basic and solid design reminiscent of older generation manual lenses designed for 35mm film cameras. This modern design uses a combination of metal parts and engineered plastics and feels solid and rugged. Samyang makes no claims as to water resistance and should be properly shielded from wet weather conditions. The F stop ring clicks in 1/2 stop increments from F2 to F22 and provides both visible (via scale) and mechanical (one click per 1/2 stop) feedback that allows for adjustment without looking directly at the aperture ring. The lens handles well on the A99 which is a full size camera but its weight is noticeable and moves the center of gravity about an inch or so ahead of the lens mount. The focus ring has a long throw and requires a significant force to rotate. The up side is the focus ring won't be easily jarred but requires a solid grip on the camera and focusing ring to get the task accomplished. The image quality is exceptionally good across the full frame from F2 to F16, softening slightly at F22. The out of focus area (bokeh) is pleasing and smooth, rendering a soft colorfully and non distracting background ideal for portraiture. Updated May 24, 2017: After 8 weeks of use the focusing ring that originally felt very stiff is now much easier to rotate and feels silky smooth throughout the entire rotation range. The amount of resistance is just about perfect now. Summary: Highly Recommended For Manual Focus Fans • Razor sharp images with beautifully pleasing bokeh are achievable with careful technique. Image quality is comparable to the best 135mm lenses. • Lens is fairly heavy and requires a firm grip to both camera and focusing ring. • No EXIF data available using Sony A-mount but image quality easily makes up for that. Keeping notes manually would be required if EXIF data is a critical need. • Reasonably priced based on build and image quality. • Recommended for photographers who don't mind manual focus and have cameras that allow for interchangeable focusing screens or provide electronic focusing aids. • The sharpest lens in my collection, with very little chromatic aberration. ... show more

    • Fantastic Astrophotography Canera
Style: Canon
Review Image by Greg Lee Greg Lee
This camera exceeded my expectations. On the first clear night out, I was able to get great pictures. I was able to get four Orion nebulae (Orion, Running Man, Flame and Horsehead) in the same frame with great clarity. I had my doubts because of the good price. I highly recommend this camera.

    • Very sharp telephoto lens purchased for one purpose, where it excels.
Style: Canon
I purchased this lens for use in an astronomy-related optical instrument I have been building during the ongoing awful pandemic. It was recommended by an expert, whose judgement I highly trust, and I am very happy I purchased the lens: it has very low chromatic aberration in the violet part of the spectrum, which is exactly what I wanted. I have not used this lens, which is manual focus only, to photograph people, scenery, cats, or any other typical subject. So this review will probably help no one. But it is great for what I needed it for. ... show more

    • Not usable at F2
Style: Canon
Not sure about all the reviews and youtube videos I watched saying how sharp the lens was, at F2 it is unusable and the opposite of sharp. At 2.8 it starts to become usable, I wouldn't trust it until F4, that and the manual focus lens becomes not something worth buying.

    • Impressive lens.
Style: Sony E
Review Image by Rob Rob
As a beginner photographer, I did not want to invest in any very expensive lenses. This lens was a wonderful choice for a telephoto lens as the picture appears incredibly sharp to me, the manual focus and manual aperture is exciting and a great way for me to get to know how to manipulate the lens to give me a beautiful shot. I find myself taking pictures of still nature like moss and trees as I am still learning how to focus manually on moving things. A lot of potential for portraits and faux macro shots. ... show more

    • Super Sharp Stars for Astrophotography
Style: Canon
I bought this for wide-field astrophotography after seeing nice astro images taken by a couple of others using this lens. I was hopeful that mine would show sharp stars on the edges even wide open at f/2. So I spent a night shooting stars with it and have to say I'm impressed. Even at f/2 there is virtually no evidence of coma even in the corners. I did notice pronounced vignetting at f/2, which is common at fast f-stops. But when I stopped down to f/2.8 the vignetting was much improved. I'm really happy about the coma-free performance of this lens. Not sure if all units are equally good or if there is some unit-to-unit variation, but my copy is outstanding. ... show more
