The optical design of the mirror and mirrorless versions of the lenses 14 / 2.8 and 85 / 1.4 are significantly different. Some Samyang lenses may be sold under another brand - Rokinon.
There is also an interesting premium manual lens line XP for full-frame cameras:
- Xp 10 / 3.5 [Canon EF, Nikon F]
- XP 35 / 1.2 [Canon EF]
- XP 50 / 1.2 [Canon EF]
- XP 14 / 2.4 [Canon EF, Nikon F]
- XP 85 / 1.2 [Canon EF]
The number of ordinary manual lenses from Samyang / Rokinon can no longer be counted. In addition, there are a huge number of movie lenses Samyang / Rokinon line Cine and Proffesional Cine (XEEN series).

The weight is suspicious.
The manual focus part-frame 16/2 has a weight of 580g, and this one is lighter, for a full format and with af-gut inside - 2,5 times less.
It will be very interesting to look at the samples.
they have many lungs, the same new Samyang AF 35 / 1.8 FE even easier
For astro, there should be just a cannon! This is the kind of lens I'm waiting for!
For astrophotography, a wider angle is probably needed
No, it seems like the optics of the 24 / 1.x class are the most popular.
I thought astrophoto was the lot of super-widths, I wonder what they would offer to crop, it seems like it should go to crop too
At super-widths, coma and other field aberrations, so that less than 24 does not seem to like it anymore. Only fisheye is wider
It is already known, 12/2 autofocus, obviously - the development of the well-known Samyangov manual width for crop.
