I bought my Samyang 35-150 in BH for a thousand dollars, already updated to version 2, and I have nothing to complain about, the auto focus for videos and photos are excellent on my Sony a7iv. The material is not bad, the problem with Tamron is that if you pay 2000 thousand dollars and sell it you will lose a lot of money.

There is no hiding it, Tamron is a better lens overall. This is pretty close behind though and it is made for all those who can't stretch their budget to the price of Tamron or who are loyal to the Samyang brand. Thanks for watching guys!

Thanks for the review. What I don't get is why people are complaining about the weight. What would be different from carrying a lens kit consisting of 24-70 f2.8 and 70-200 f2.8 for example, which together actually weigh more? Or shooting with a 70-200 f2.8 GM2 at only 200 g less? I used to shoot weddings (and not just me, that's certain) with a Canon 5D mk3 with battery grip on, 70-200 f2.8 and sometimes with a speedlight mounted on. Now that is heavy!

This lens is so tempting. This and a Tamron 20-40mm F/2.8 Di III VXD, , covering 20 to 150 mm. If Samyang would make something around 20-40mm f/2.8, that would be such a cost saver.

Man, I really hope that one/some of these manufacturers simply comes-out with an (updated) full-frame 24/35mm to 85mm F2, F2.8 or something. I understand this 35 to 150 zoom range has its use, niche and market, but I am really hoping for something more compact these days 😢

He Pav, great video. A little confusing at 2:52 though, because with respect to close focusing you are saying "at 35 mm it is 33cm and at 150mm it is 85mm. That would mean at 150mm it focuses 24.5 cm closer than at 35mm. I suspect you meant that at 150mm it focuses down to 85cm. Y/N?
@PavSZ
8 ай бұрын
As far as I know what I said it is right. When you fully zoom out (at 35mm) you subject has to be 33cm (from the sensor) for the lens to focus. When you fully zoom in (150mm), you will have to step back as your subject will have to be 85cm (cm, not mm as I said in the video) from the sensor. Mistakes happen unfortunately

I've read some reviews by people who had the screws on the mount loosen over time and literally fall off their camera. The worst part is Samyang didn't stand by their products and stopped communicating with them altogether. Hopefully they've learned from it and fixed the problem. Buyers of used (older) copies beware. BTW, are the Rokinon versions identical? For some reason I see they're slightly less expensive.
