  • In this video I'll share my thoughts on the Samyang AF 85mm f1.4 Canon EF version. This lens is designed for DSLR bodies but I'll mount it on my Canon EOS R and will feel no constraints whatsoever.
    No review is complete without comparisons. So I will compare the Samyang AF 85mm f1.4 EF to the Canon EF 85mm 1.8 USM and the Canon EF 85mm f1.4L IS.
    In general the lens is quite nice. I don't have any major complaints concerning its optical qualities. The biggest problem is the competition. You have too many other seductive options in the realm of 85mm Canon portrait lenses. Watch this review for a more detailed look.

    i know that canon EF lenses fit on APS-C cameras but will this samyang also fit on a crop sensor camera? thanks for the review

    Hello Oleg! Nice to see your english versions too. You do it awesome so keep going. As a beginner I'm interested to understand the chances of lenses to be further reselled after some extensive tests. I hope it's pretty OK on the very beginning. I'm thinking of buying Samyang 85 but then I hope to resell these lenses later. How do you estimate their reselling potential? Are these lenses popular on both Ukrainian and international markets so that I could succeed in selling them?

    Oleg i got a cannon m50 camera and using Ommlie adapter for Samyang 85mm 1.4 ef cannon lens and am not able to take a picture but the lens shows on the screen. How do you make it take a picture? I know the auto focus wont work on it because it dosent reconize it.

    Good conclusion, honest. But between Canon 1.8 and Samyang, the difference might not be in bokeh but the Canon has lots of purple fringing which Samyang might not have. Also wide open Canon is soft and Samyang not so.

    Very helpful and informative thank you! I would love to see a video comparing the Samyang 85 1.4 EF mount VS. Samyang 85 1.4 RF mount on the EOS R🙏 I recently bought the EF version but I want to know if it’s worth it to pay more for the RF version when it comes to autofocus speed and sharpness.

    • @MaxArceus
      @MaxArceus 3 года назад +1

      exactly!
      I have a Nikon camera, and the Nikon version of this lens appears to be pretty much identical to the EF version. All sales sites I've seen simply market the Samyang 85mm F1.4 AF lenses as 'the same but with a different mount', yeah no! I only recently found out there's a difference at all, and nearly all reviews I've found are for the RF or FE versions, not useful for me :s
      This is actually only the third review I've found for one of the other versions.

    @focusboxmedia5471 Год назад

    In 2023, given the time of high megapixel war, would the old Canon 1.2 justify the kost ? With RF line of cameras I think Samyang 1.4 would be a good value for the money.

    • @olegasphotoen
      @olegasphotoen  9 месяцев назад

      It depends on your need for pixel-peeping. For me it's totally fine. But there are people who can't live without maximum corner sharpness wide open.

    Ну это примерно мой уровень английского относительно уровня произношения...) Я понял, чтоб это перебороть нужно больше практиковаться и как-то более уверенно произносить слова, без "жевания" слов. Возможно нужно текст потренироваться и несколько раз его проработать, а так не слишком выразительно получается. Но проба пера состоялась.
