Hope the coma is good enough for astro

Lots to like about this lens.
I like the focal length, I like the wide aperture, and not only does it take filters, but it's a very reasonable 77mm.
The European price seems to be announced at 549 Euros, so quite reasonable.

Good job Samyang (yet again).

Please can has 14mm/1.8 for crop as well? or 12mm?!

Are Samyang becoming the lens manufacturer of choice for astro?

First the 14/2.8, now this.

I love my 14/2.8, the reports of good coma performance from you and others was the deciding factor in its purchase. I hope they can keep up the good work.

anyone know when this lens is out to look at the test pictures for astro

I'm definitely going to keep an eye out for the 14f2.8, being Full Frame there's a chance it has good distortion control on Crop, and hopefully they make a manual focus version for Canon.
