Was looking for shots taken using this glass but could not find any in this forum. Thought I'd start a thread with photos taken with this great little lens.
Samyang/Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
Hi, i visited this forum nearly daily for the last couple of month and now decided to share my first post. Thanks for all the great informations and the wonderfull pictures. And excuse my english as i´m not a native speaker.
I just bought the Lens a couple of weeks ago and had not so much time to use it. Here are some shots I took at a small lake near my place. Not really fancy but i kinda like them. All shot with my 6D and edited in Lightroom. Any feedback is highly appreciated.

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
The first one is my favorite. I love the color. 14mm might be too wide for the last one. There is a lot of water and sky compared to the tree line which is quite small. Congrats on buying a great lens!

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
Thank you for the fast replies and the feedback. The first one is also my favorite of this series of shots. I know what you mean bchernicoff regarding the last pic. I kind of like it even if it´s a little empty and the 14mm was the only lens i brought that day. The Pic is also rather a snapshot and was not that carefully composed.
And Ben your shots are amazing and gave me the last push to buy this lens. I really like the slower manual workflow and the image quality is really nice. Also the build quality is better than i expected an i was rather surprised by the small size of the lens.

I think a bit of a crop is all it needs. Thanks, but don't confuse me with Ben Taylor above. My only contribution to this thread is the girl on the log.

I don't own this lens, but I get to shoot with one every once in a while. It's wonderful!

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
Looks like the IQ might exceed that of the Tokina 16-28, which is the only other wide angle lens I'm considering for purchase. It supposedly has some weird halo, making it unsuitable for night shots. Any of you compared these two?

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
I have not, but I also have not seen a zoom lens that can compete with the samyang 14mm (Outperforms the 16-35 ii in IQ...)
As for not being able to shoot at night, I have never had a problem with it. I am not sure if you are talking about the samyang or the tokina having the halo you mentioned.
Anyhow some pictures taken at night for reference:

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
Thanks for the advice, and those are nice pics...the top one looks like a mirror image at yet it is not!
I was speaking of the Tokina, it has a type of halo flare...supposedly. I have yet to try my friend's. I may just buy the Samyang instead. Why do they use two names, Samyang or Rokinon?

Re: Samyang 14mm f2.8
I think there are a few names this lens in sold under (Bower Vivitar, Opteka as well). I got the Rokinon FE14M-C as a fathers day gift and am very impressed with it. Not sure who the parent company is.CarlTN said:
