I had it and the EF 85 1.4 is so much better. Sharper, quicker and is a tank compared. The Samyang did what it was supposed to do though. No IS like noted before, but it is a lens you can use without an adapter so that does count for something.
For me the IS and sharpness where deciding factors as I get those two factors on my Eos R given there’s no Ibis.
It’s also a weird quirk but I don’t like the way the lens bulges out either but that is purely preference, but when I grab it by the lens the EF feels better. I’m also not a fan of the 1.2, mostly the size and shift of the element. But that bad boy is beautiful. Just not $3k beautiful
