Explore the creative possibilities with the Rokinon 24mm f/3.5 Tilt Shift Lens for Canon EF mount, a sophisticated tool designed for photographers who demand precision and control. This wide-angle, full-frame manual focus lens is equipped with advanced perspective control and tilt-shift functions, making it an indispensable asset for architectural, landscape, and product photography.Crafted to deliver high-quality images, the lens features an optical construction of 16 elements in 11 groups, including two aspherical lenses and two Extra-low Dispersion (ED) lenses. These elements work together to reduce chromatic aberrations and ensure sharp detail with accurate color separation. The multi-layered, anti-reflective Ultra Multi-Coating (UMC) on each lens element enhances light transmission, effectively minimizing lens flare and ghosting for pristine image clarity.The tilt-shift mechanism of this 24mm lens provides photographers with the ability to adjust the focal plane by an angle of +/-8.5 degrees, granting unparalleled control over depth of field. Additionally, the lens enables a parallel shift of the optical axis by +/-12mm, which is essential for correcting perspective and maintaining straight lines that appear natural, especially in architectural photography.With an angle of view of 83.5 degrees on full-frame cameras and 56.9 degrees on APS-C sensors (with a 38.4mm equivalent focal length), this lens offers a broad perspective suitable for capturing expansive scenes. The tilt-shift section can rotate left up to 90 degrees with click-stop adjustments at each 30-degree interval, while the lens mount itself can rotate left or right by 90 degrees, also with click-stop adjustments at each 30-degree interval, providing flexibility for any shooting scenario.The Rokinon 24mm f/3.5 Tilt Shift Lens is compatible with a wide range of Canon DSLR cameras, including the Canon EOS 1D X Mark II, Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, and Canon EOS 6D Mark II. Its durable construction and innovative design make it a versatile and professional choice for photographers who require the utmost in control and quality from their equipment.Whether capturing the intricate lines of a skyscraper, the sprawling beauty of a landscape, or the detailed textures of a product, this lens offers the precision and versatility needed to produce compelling, distortion-free images. Embrace the power of manual focus and explore the artistic potential that the Rokinon 24mm f/3.5 Tilt Shift Lens brings to your photography.

I?m not always working with this lens, but the few time that I use it I love it and all the editor didn?t complain on the quality of the image.

Great for the price

Mechanically the lens looks and feels solid.  The controls are smooth.  Optically, it is terrible.  I have  used numerous Canon and Nikon perspective control lenses.  I know how PC lenses are supposed to perform.  This lens is not even close to the optical quality of the Canon and Nikon offerings.  Image resolution is very low all across the frame at all apertures.  Flaring occurs even when there are no direct point light sources in the frame.

For simple perspective control you are better off shooting a standard lens and correcting the perspective digitally.  A stretched and edited image from a decent quality non-PC lens will be sharper than the optically corrected images from this lens.  Better yet, just use an extreme rectilinear wide angle lens, shoot it plumb and level, then crop the image.

The only use I can see for this lens is extreme depth of field effects that are nearly impossible to replicate in post processing.

Mechanically good.  Optically terrible.

This is an awesome lens.  Sharp and easy to use for Architectural or Landscape work.

This is an awesome lens

I shoot real estate professionally. My normal lenses are 16-35GM sony and 12-24G sony. I bought this lens as it is the only native sony mount TS. It ghosts, flares, is terribly soft at ANY apeture, and the controls drift. The other people reviewing have to either completely blind or paid shills.

Worst lens I have used in my career, maybe worse than a hole in a piece of paper.

I'm enjoying experimenting with this fun lens. It would be nice in today's age if it were automatic, but then I'm sure it wouldn't be so affordable. Takes a little extra time, but certainly doesn't detract from the quality of the images it captures.

tilt-shift fun time

I read tons of reviews on this lens. I seriously considered the Nikon 24 PC lens, but could not justify the cost - IF it compared to this Rokinon. Adorama ordering was very easy (as usual) and the lens arrived in under 2 days. My testing was very thorough; mounted on my D850 I shot about 100 images over alll f-stops. Yes, corners are soft at 3.5. But by 5.6, their just as sharp as the center. I am comparing image quality to my Sigma 35 Art, which is an extremely sharp and vibrant lens. The Rokinon is very nearly as bit sharp. It takes 100% + peeping to see any difference whatsoever.

The tilt/shift is smooth and does not "fall" when I loosen the tightness knob. Others indicated this and it's not true for me. The knobs are a little small, as others have complained, but I don't find it an issue. I only mention it because it's been on so many other reviews as an issue.

For why you would buy this lens - controlling perspective and depth of field, it's fantastic. I cannot justify the extra $1000+ dollars Nikon charges over their equivalent. With Adorama's return policy, pick one up and test it yourself.

Outstanding Image Quality

I really like this lens! it has great rendition and is fairly sharp edge to edge. CA is minimal and easily fixed in post. The only complaint is this is a heavy lens on the A7RM3, but use it on a tripod anyway.

Good value for the money

 Purchased as a gift for my son who is a semi pro photographer .

Excellent product, very fast shipping.
Thank you for your service.

I recently purchased this lens. What impresses me the most, is the sharpness of the optics. In addition I have read and seen negative reviews about the plastic locking knobs. I see no issue with this. They lock as they should. Obviously, they are "not" designed to be torqued down, of which there is no need to anyways.

Rokinon 24mm f3.5 Tilt Shift - Very pleased

I use this lens primarily for real estate and product photography. The Rokinon is less than half the price of its Canon equivalent, and nearly it's equal in image quality and function.

Real Estate: If you are serious about getting into any type of structural photography, this is the lens to start with. I curently have little need for the tilt function, but the ability to shift is key for producing proper vertical lines. This lens performs very well at higher apertures, which is where you want to be anyhow. At f/11 and below, you can see it becomes a little softer than the Canon, but for the price, and the fact that I hardly use it below f/16, it's a no brainer.

Product Photography: I primarily use this lens to shoot garments for catalog photos, where the garment is parallel to the sensor plane to maintain proportion. The main reason I first chose this lens for the purpose is because it is a nice sharp prime, and I do not have to worry about the lens sagging and having to refocus if I have to take some time to adjust my lighting or subjects. The reason I continue to do so is the fact that it is sharp enough to practically count the threads in fine cotton apparel. The ceveat is that if there is so much as an eyelash on the piece, it will show up. The shift function is a bonus in this application, where if you can't position the camera directly on the subject, you don't have to take your camera out of parallel to center it, which would cause distortion.

This lens has its specialized applications, and is not for everyone. If you are doing any kind of structural work, or for certain types of products, this is a sure winner. All T/S lenses that I know of are manual focus, but in my opinion, that kind of forces you to be more mindful of your subject.

One downfall (which is truly nit-picking) is the lack of communication with the camera, which is present in the Canon. In your EXIF data, it appears as a 50mm lens, and does not retain your f/stop information. This is helpful to me for analyzing and repeating results. Simply taking notes solves that.

One last thing is the mechanism itself. Some have complained (elsewhere) of the knobs being too small - which I tend to agree to an extent. I have large hands, and the knobs could use to be a bit bigger, but too much larger, and there would be less room for my finger to get a firm hold. Lastly, the tilt and shift rails have very little tension, so you also have to hold your adjustment against gravity until you lock your position - which I did not have to do with the Canon.

All-in-all, for my purposes I believe this lens to be 95% the lens that the Canon is, but for the same money, you could buy two of these and still take your family to dinner twice a week - for a month. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because 4.5 is not available, and the cons listed above keep it from being a 5.
