    I have used this lens with my Sony A7ii. On the positive it’s a well made lens, heavy and feels robust. Most images are sharpish once you have mastered the manual focus…but not as sharp as I hoped for.BUT…………..I do not understand why Samyang let lenses out with focus calibration so far out you wouldn’t go as far on your holidays!!! I mean when I’m focused at infinity it reads 0.315M / 1.1FT!!! Eh? Twisting the focus ring past this then infinity goes out of focus. And my nearest focal range reads something before the first figure of 0.28M when the subject is approx 0.5M away. I just didn’t bother looking at the focus ring.It is not sharp.I have read the reviews and see how some people attack their lenses with screwdrivers to re-calibrate it. Not for me. I don’t know if I’ll try another one of these, in case the same problems exist.Then when I use the focus magnifier I sometimes get a message that the lens isn’t fitted properly!!!I am a bit disappointed in this lens after all I have read about it. It has fors and againsts but for me there are too many against’s and I feel I have to return it. I was so looking forward to taking this to Venice on my holidays, but now I wont.Come on SAMYANG, you potentially have a super lens here, sort out these issues!

    Love it, tricky to focus on infinity, but with EVF its much easier to do. Mine is pin sharp between 2m-3m focus marks. After 3m stars are blurred a bit. Even having electronic viewfinder I suggest to take several shots with the same settings (shutter speed / iso / aperture) slightly moving focus ring from shot to shot. Use pen and paper to record sequence of shots and focus setting. The sharpest point might be way before infinity.

    Excellent for A7r. The photo is sharp and the distortion is acceptable.

    Soft edges. Not particularly sharp lens either

    Nice sharp lens.N.B. The Sony version is bigger and heavier as it has an adapter that isn’t shown on the product image.Doesn’t bother me though,Wish I could afford the AF version.
