This is a lens that I'm also very interested in.  It seems a very natural field for Samyang to compete in with their manual focus only philosophy.  I have a lot of experience with manual lenses as I like to play with old M42 lenses at times.  I've never found a great M42 wide angle though, and the truth of the matter is that I'm often less than thrilled with my 17-40L in the corners.  If this lens was sharp corner to corner it could be a great lens for landscape and architecture.

Converted from Croation currency it's roughly 950-1000euros, so in US it'd probably go for around 900$.

This from the website of the UK Samyang distributor. Can you spot the conflicting statements here?

I think you missed the "available soon" :P It is not here yet... Apparently, the Rokinon branded version is due in May and I don't think the Samyang will be here much sooner. Also, there is talk of a price increase to $1300 on the Facebook page of Samyang Europe. How much of all that is true, I don't know.
5DIII, 17-40, 24-105, 70-200/4IS, 50/1.8II, 85/1.8 and, hoping to learn, a Yongnuo YN568EX.

Samyang Poland is a distributor, and the Polish Currency is the Zloty
 
Samyang Lenses are made in Korea, and shipped directly to the USA under the Rokinon Badge.  Samyang has a Polish Distributor, but, they do not make cameras, just sell rebadged ones

It would appear someone has already reviewed it. I don't know anything about the source, so I'm only posting this for those who are curious.

B&H shows that it'd be available from 2nd May 2013 for the Rokinon named lens ... the Samyang named one will be available from 15th May 2013 (but both are one and the same lens).

I thought Roger was a rich man, who can afford multiple copies of lenses without feeling a pinch ;D

Not that impressive.
It would help if the person who took the shots actually used the tilt-shift features of the lens other than the overused toy look.  It may be sharp though.
