Rated 5 out of 5

amazing lens

Can't beat this for the price. Sharpness, clarity and color is amazing and competes easily with Sony, Sigma, Tamron etc. Between this lens and an 85mm 1.8 I can do 90% of my portrait work.

Better than any other options at or near its pricepoint.

Brilliantly sharp, and functions exactly as a good 35mm should at f/1.8. The design is nice and sleek, and the lens feels very solidly built. I cannot ask for more at this price point. 5/5 for Samyang.

Affordable and worth it

Super affordable full frame lens. I?ve only had it for a couple of weeks on my new Sony A7C and its a pretty great combo if you?re looking for a smaller full frame lens.

I wish the lens worked for me

This lens is small and light. I'm sure it is fast and sharp. I don't know though. It wouldn't connect with my camera (a7iv). No auto or manual focus, no control. Camera error "lens not mounted correctly or not supported". I returned it, Adorama refunded with no problem.I decided to buy the Zeiss instead of replacing the Samyang. Twice the money but works fine, no worries.

Do you have alpha camera and don't have 35mm yet? get this.

I bought this for my sony a7c. Sharp image, fast AF, never fails for the eye-AF, amazing AF for video as well. almost no noise for the video focus. I don't notice this is the third part lense. Save $$ than sony 35mm 1.8, but same great quality. Recommand!

Small, lite, sharp

I'm using the Tamron trinity on Sony A7iii for travel. The Nikon stuff is just too heavy and bulky anymore. This is the perfect focal length for walk-around and its f/1.8 so that helps for indoor shots without breaking out the TT350s Mini flash.

What's Not To Like?

This lens is on par with the Samyang 45mm 1.8 and 75mm 1.8. Great IQ, sharpness, and bokeh. All this in a very lightweight package.

Samyang AF 35mm f/1.8 FE

I love all the new Samyang mini lens. The Samyang AF 35mm f/1.8 FE is no exception. Just took too long to reach market from its announced date. Definitely worth the wait though..
