More Teasers From Samyang, Three New Lenses?

[wickidwombat]

what I really want from samyang is their 8mm in EF-M mount currently i have the EF-S version which I really like but an EF-M one would be so tiny and convenient.

What this world really needs is yet another 50mil.. Don't think so, SamJunk is smarter than that.

Actually, the world does need a modern 50mm under $1,000 that's usable (for more than just portraits) at 1.4. If Sigma wasn't releasing a 50 of their own Samyang would stand to make a killing if it performs good wide open (i.e. on the same level as their 35mm and 85mm).

I haven't noticed that shots from my EF 50/1.4 were unusable, not on the old 5dc I got that lens for nor on 5dmk3. Nor I heard from nikonians their new G 50s weren't up to any task. Pixel-peeping amateurs might have something to complain but I still think even after so many years that EF50/1.4 is a bang for a buck lens.

They have been saying for 2 years now that they are going to be making a 50mm Cine T1.2 and 135mm Cine T1.5 but every year they then say not this time around and bring out more wide lenses.

8mm, 14mm, 16mm, 24mm, 35mm, What next 21mm, 25mm and a 28mm Cine lens?

It would be good if they can cover all ends of the Cine lens spectrum.

Give us a 50mm T2.1, 100mm T2.1, 135mm T2.1, and even a 50mm T2.1 Macro. So that we can cover all focal lengths without needing to resort to purchasing a complete Zeiss Cine Lens set.

Well, now that you mention it - an UWA 3rd party prime is very welcomed, anything but 20/2.8EF or Zeiss 21/2.8 would be much appreciated. The only 21mm I think it's worthwhile is Minolta MD 21/2.8 but that's only easily adaptable to Sony FE mount, not so easy on EOS. I love that lens on my Minolta XD11 but would love to see an adequate replacement in digital world.

LOL ;D ;D ;D ... but when they said "year of the lens", Samyang didn't really cross my mind.

Just noticed that the 12mm 1:2.0 NCS CS (nice name, BTW ) is going to be available in the EOS-M mount. That's the first 3rd party lens I've heard about in the M mount.
