I love the rendering of this lens & have been using it for almost 2 yrs on the sony a7r4. Also used it for detailed architecture and its very sharp. I too really like the 45mm fl. Its really a gem of a lens
this is the first video i have seen from you and i am impressed. super clear, down to the point, and you helped me to make a decision i have been pondering for quite some time now. i will get this lens. thanks so much and of course, i subscribed. 😀
Very good presentation that was focused on real world use of the lens with samples to backup the statements. It was refreshing to watch this review that is way more useful than some of the reviews of known RUclips reviewers. No unrealistic expectations that Samyang 45mm f1.8 to be excellent on all levels (build, optics/IQ, price) and no useless comparisons with lenses that weight twice as much and cost 3 times more. I cannot agree more with the conclusion of your review; I would have said maybe a bit more on CA aspects, though the conclusion stays. This lens punches well above its weight. Why I liked the presentation so much: logical manner, perfect pace, style.
Thank you for this review, it was very well done 👍🏻👏🏻 The footage you took using the said camera at the end of the video, was amazing! Very beautiful😍 You're a talented videographer 😍 Wish you all the best in your journey 👍🏻
Hi mate! I really enjoyed your review on this lens! I wasn't 100% sure about buying it but after watching your video and hearing how excited you were about it I'm going to buy one tonight! Cheers and best of luck with your channel!
@@germauxvisuals I've heard that 24mm Samyang/Rokinon is very similar in execution and even a slightly more refined, being their most recent compact full frame FE lens. I've also been hearing really good things about their 35mm, 1.8.
Hey man- just came across your review and am headed off on a bikepacking trip and looking for something small for capturing content on the ride... would you still recommend this lens? Thanks!
Can I know your video settings for this video? Did you use slog and color graded yourself? The atmosphere here looks so good like the dreamed scene I want to shoot in future. Really appreciate your answer and thanks for the video btw will getting this lens next time!
I've got this lens and I absolutely love it. Surprised there isn't many videos of people speaking about it.
Right?? Super underrated

Thanks for watching!
It has a fair amount of that vintage style rendering magic while still keeping with modern sharpness/contrast sensibilities.
Very nicely said!

Hey thanks! Hope you enjoy the lens!
this looks great! Recently got a 24mm Rokinon
Are you happy with that lens? Want to buy it for my concert photography :)

It was a very sincere review. I wanted to thank you.
Thank you for watching!

Subscribed.❤️
Nice vid thanks!
Thanks!
Hi. What is your advice for a Sony A7s III on a gimbal when I use a 24-70 lens?
how far you are
Nice Video. please what was your camera profile on A7iii when you changed to the samyang
All shot in SLog3 same settings
Hey man- just came across your review and am headed off on a bikepacking trip and looking for something small for capturing content on the ride... would you still recommend this lens?
Thanks!
Can't decide between this and sony 40mm 2.5 G. Which one is better for traveling light?
Haven’t used the Sony 40mm, but it’s probably a bit better quality glass.
Can I know your video settings for this video? Did you use slog and color graded yourself? The atmosphere here looks so good like the dreamed scene I want to shoot in future. Really appreciate your answer and thanks for the video btw will getting this lens next time!
Yes! I always shoot in slog and grade the footage
Hey man! Nice video! Can you tell me which lense you used on this video for the intro? Thanks!
Sigma 24-70 2.8! I love that lens
Nice review!!
Thanks!
Would you recommend this as a travel lens?
It is pretty light & small, but I’d probably go for a zoom lens like the Tamron 20-40 for travel! A little more versatile for travel
Thank you so much! Appreciate it. Couldn’t decide with the vast range out there!
Nice video! Have you tried the low light auto focus and/or active stab for the video with this lens ?
Stabilization works well, but autofocus in the dark definitely searches more than a Sony lens would
How does the focus ring work? Does it overrides AF at all time?
No, it doesn’t override. The camera needs to be in manual focus mode for it to work.
