    Stumbled across your channel while looking for lens and camera combos for my first entry into the camera market. Now you’re becoming my go to reference for it. Thanks for the videos and please keep up the good work!

    dude!!!!!! because of your video i have finally found a lens. I stop the video like half way and purchase a used one and save even more. Now i will finish watching this video and play it like 3 more time before looking for more videos about this lens.... I think i am in love again.....lol

    After seeing one of your other videos I was looking to buy 11-22mm for indoor, but now 12mm sounds better :)
    I need a lens for vlogging and the 16mm you recommended on the vlog video might be a slight narrow for me.
    Man you should be on a commercial for these lenses.

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  3 года назад +1

      The 11-22 is the best overall lens for vlogs, it’s a zoom, so it’s more versatile, and it has image stabilisation. It’s also very sharp.

    I love this Review! Am one step closer to purchasing this for my m50, still thinking of the Samyang, but this Review is swinging my Mind closer to Rokinon

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  3 года назад

      Thanks! The Samyang and the Rokinon are the same lens, the company sells under both brand names. The lenses are identical, just buy the one you can find cheaper.

    Sold. I'm going to pick up this lens for my Sony a6400 to start vlogging & save some money. Manual focusing shouldn't be too bad.

    Nice video Mark thanks. Until recently, every lens I used was manual so that shouldn't be such a terrible disadvantage for me.

    Firstly, thank you for this amazing review. I think you forgot to mention that this lens did not have IS. So, do you think footage will look little shaky if while walking during vlogging. In this video you are walking at a slower pace, so could not really tell.

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  3 года назад +1

      Most of the prime lenses on this mount don't have IS, even the expensive ones. Since the lens is very wide, you wont notice the jitters as much, but for a vlogging lens with IS have a look at the EF-M 11-22mm, it's a very good lens.

    Just found your channel. Very helpful. Just started doing real estate videography and hopefully photography soon on the side for extra money. I already have the Canon 11-22 which I use for all of the interior real estate stuff. It does struggle with low light. Would this lense (Rokinon 12) be noticeably narrower field of view as compared to the 11-22? I know the lower aperture would help me in low light. Just wondering how much narrower field of view It will sacrifice if I go to this lense?

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  8 месяцев назад +1

      For sure it's worth having both. Zoom the 11-22mm to 12mm, this will give you a good indication.

    Really i have the sigma 16mm f1.4 and use for youtube videos but i am disappointed about sharpness and linear accuracy

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  3 года назад +2

      Yes, I like the f1.4 on the sigma 16 and the autofocus is very reliable. The Rokinon is just a total bargain for what it gives you, as long as you can get beyond the manual focus. The imagines out of the Rokinon have a magical feel to them.

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  3 года назад +1

      It's much sharper than the 11-22. It's an extremely sharp lens.

    Have you heard of or reviewed the 10mm version of Rokinon? M-mount. Its around $350 mark

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  Год назад

      I don't know much about it, it is a f2.8 lens, which won't be quite as good in low light, but don't have any experience with it.

    @flatlinehansen2569 3 года назад

    Serious question.. do you think this would be a good lens to flim POV x-rated videos? I have the Sigma 16 but I have to back the camera up a bit more than I'd like.

    • @markwiemels
      @markwiemels  3 года назад

      It will allow the camera to be closer, but the ultra wide angle will have a very specific look to it, which may or may not be desirable.

    Thanks for this awesome heads-up perspective!! I just opened my 12MM Rokinon and i was able to shoot only two short minute video clips. I tested other canon lenses then retried the Rok. now it is not taking any images or vids. do you have a troubleshooting video or have links to share for how to use and troubleshoot the Rok. lens!!

    • @markwiemels

      In the menu, release shutter without lens, or something like that, will fix your issue.

      Oh. Sorry, keep an eye on eBay, saw one on eBay for $230 the other day (used), but don’t see it now. Because they are a well built and with no electronics, they can be a good lens to buy used.
