John Riley has just posted a full review of the newly announced Samyang AF 12mm F/2 X Lens (Amazon/ B&H/ Adorama) at the ephotozine.com. He tested this new lens on Fujifilm X-S10 and find it is an excellent performance lens at an excellent price. He highly recommended!
Below are the Samyang AF 12mm f/2 X Pros
- Outstanding central sharpness
- Low central CA
- Fast and virtually silent AF
- Weather sealing
- Close focus
- Well-controlled distortion
- Modest vignetting
- Excellent price
This is the verdict: “It’s ultrawide, it’s fast, it has crisp AF performance and it offers a very high level of performance. There is huge potential in such a lens, especially as it fits seamlessly into the operation of the Fujifilm camera body…It is actually good to see so many small, high-performance prime lenses coming into the market; perhaps a refreshing change from huge, heavy optics that defy the logic of having small, compact camera bodies...”
