Samyang has moved a step forward with its innovative second-zoom lens to provide a more convenient user experience. The lens is remarkably versatile as an all-in-one lens with fast maximum apertures and provides a solution for photographers seeking to avoid lens changing. It was clearly designed for a portrait photographer, but the wide zoom range is also useful for everyone shooting commercials, events and travel imagery. Mode 2 – in AF mode, the ring functions as an aperture adjustment ring, in MF mode, the ring provides linear manual focusing (300° focus throw).

Ce genre d’objectifs a pour but d’être un couteau suisse très performant et d’être votre objectif unique pour le mariage, la photo de rue, le studio ou le sport Additionally, Samyang claims that the lens is parfocal (digital par-focal) so the focus should stay in place when zooming.

The Tamron sample he had was broken and therefore nullifies his findings. He confirmed it, go read it in the comments on youtube.

MTF curves of the Samyang AF 35-150mm F2.0-2.8 FE are not yet available. Looking at the available high-resolution imagery of this lens, we see decent resolution, little to no chromatic aberrations and at full aperture a nice blur, which of course you would actually expect from a lens with such high brightness. For further judgment, we will have to wait until we can test this lens extensively ourselves. Photo: Andrei Coste For still images, keeping a distance equal to the diagonal length of the full image surface is recommended. The full frame sensor of a digital camera is 36 x 24mm and the diagonal length is 43.26mm so any distance close to this number is nearer to the ideal than the currently accepted industry standard of 50mm.

The new Samyang 35-150mm F2-F2.8 (1350 euros) seems like a clone of the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 Di III VXD (1800 euros) What are the difference ? if the 500 euros more justified for the Tamron ? This is what we will cover in this comparison Etymology: Middle English rumour, from Anglo-French, from Latin rumor clamor, gossip; akin to Old English rēon to lament, Sanskrit rauti he roars As noted previously, Samyang has worked hard to optically correct the 35-150mm zoom as effectively as it can, and it shows in the optical performance. The center sharpness is exceptional across the focal range and while there is some fall-off towards the corners at 35mm and f/2.0, it’s not as much as might be expected. By f/4.0, the centre-to-corner sharpness is impressively uniform as is the brightness. Again, there’s slight vignetting when shooting at the widest focal length and wide open, but it’s not excessive and may not even be enough to warrant any post-camera correction (depending on your personal preferences). AF works well at at given focal length but it looses the focus when zooming , I hope this will be corrected via a firmware update
