This lens has been designed to perform stunningly with high resolution sensors (above 24m pixels). This type of coating gives smaller reflection factor than (U)MC layers plus other benefits which include: much better light transmission, higher resistance to reflections and higher contrast, which adds to optical resolution of the lens.

  • Does What it Says on the Box.

    Have read reviews for this manual wide angle lens for Mirrorless cameras for some time and finally decided to get myself one. It is all that others have said it to be. Solidly built if quality materials. Well designed with both Focus and Aperture rings being firm but free moving. Looks good on the camera ( Fuji Xe3 ). Front cap and hood as well constructed as the rest of it. As far as results are concerned I am yet to give it a lot if use but my first two shoots confirmed what I had hopped. Pin sharp, great colour rendition , professional looking images. As long as you are happy to focus manually this gem if a lens is great value. A joy to use and picture that are a joy to see. Great eBay transaction as always.

  • Get yourself one of these

    The Samsung 12mm lens is surprisingly sharp in the centre even wide open, and not offensive in the corners. Vignetting is not very evident. As for colour rendition, it is slightly different to my Fujifilm lenses, but I really like it a lot. In fact, I have put aside some decidedly fancier lenses in favour of this one for some weeks now and have produced shots that I am really pleased with. The beauty of a 12mm lens is that autofocus is almost redundant. You can quickly get used to using this manual focus lens as a point and shoot and expect to get consistently sharp images. With a little trial and error you can even set up the lens to give you a gently defocused background. One minor niggle is that the integral mount spacer at the base of the lens on mine is a tacky silver finish rather than being all black. It makes it look a bit cheap, so I don't understand why they have made this style change. All the same, this lens is small, sharp, and a delight to use. At this price, this is one lens you definitely want to have in your bag.

  • Samyang 12mm f/2.0 CS NCS Lens

    One of highest price value len in Samyang. I own both Fuji XF mount & Canon EF-M mount. Small size is good for landscape and cityscape photography. NCS coating is much better than UMC coating. Highly recommend !

  • ultra fast

    great for my night photography, well constructed. love to experiment with it. It is a manual lens, both focus and aperture, so requires a little extra but it's fun. works great on my a6000. would recommend

  • best option for aps-c

    Just received it and havent had much time to test it but it is amazing for the first few shots, easy to focus, decent wide open and very fast. I read some very good reviews so i have big expectations.

  • Lightweight and Fast

    Nice Bright easy to use lens at an affordable price. I can't compare it to the Fuginon equivalent because I didn't want to pay the Fuji price sticker. I bought it after reading a lot of independent reviews. Yes there is a slight Barreling issue especially on the left of the image whilst wide open. That doesn't bother me, there's lots of correctional software out there, some of which is free i.e NShift. I bought this lens for indoor photography works just as well for landscapes. It's light,bright and easy to use. Good one.

  • Great Lens, Great Seller

    The Samyang 12mm f2.0 Lens is probably the best deal out there right now. Fantastic sharpness, great low light capabilities and an all around fantastic lens for landscape and Astro photography. The one downside is of course the all manual control and no EXIF data, and minor vignetting. But don't let that sway your decision-making as this is an amazing deal. I absolutely cherish this Lens!

  • great value lens for low light

    Great camera lens. only had a few minutes to use but already got some good night shots which my stock lens couldnt do. I would currently highly recommend

  • Great value for money lens

    Just what I wanted & very good value, still testing it out but very impressed so far. The lens appears well built and the adjustment rings feel good with positive action. Manual focus appears very easy to control, especially utilising the focus peaking function of the camera.
