Rokinon FE14M-C 14mm F2.8 Ultra Wide Lens for Canon (Black) Reviews
| 42 of 42 people found the following review helpful:  One of the best wide angle primes at a bargain price.I, By This review is from: Rokinon FE14M-C 14mm F2.8 Ultra Wide Lens for Canon (Black) (Electronics) I am using this lens on a Canon 5D Mark II. I have several zoom lenses in this range, but was looking for a fast, superwide prime. The choice would be this or the Canon 14L II. This is the same as the Samyang, rebranded. After receiving the lens, I ran some tests against 16-35 2.8, and sigma 12-24, and was floored. The corner to corner sharpness of this lens is fantastic. I peaks at around 5.6, but the corners at 2.8 are better than the other 2 lenses at f11. the microcontrast and color is very good. The barrel distortion is hefty, and complex with a mustache distortion, however, often not well visible in landscape, but visible in architectural images. It is correctable using a $25 program called ptlens, and there is also a profile for acr 6.1 out there, which works great. It is an absolute bargain. I purchased a focus confirmation chip for 14 from ebay, glued it on, and I get focus confirmation too. 22 of 24 people found the following review helpful: Excellent Value - the best in its class, By Sanity Advocate (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Rokinon FE14M-C 14mm F2.8 Ultra Wide Lens for Canon (Black) (Electronics) I purchased this lens several months ago to use on my Canon 5d mark 1 camera. This is by far the sharpest, most flare-and color fringing-resistant lens in its class. I owned the Nikon 14-24mm lens and this lowly lens beats the Nikon hands down on all counts, exept vignetting (easily correctable in Photoshop) and distortion - but get a PT Lens software, which has this lens correction pre-programmed in its database and distortion becomes a non-issue. Advantages: Solidly built, operates smoothly, light (under 450 grams), much more compact than Nikon 14-24mm, incredible resolution, color balance and color fringing resistance - simply crushes Nikon 14-24mm (my personal experience and comparison and also see independent reviews on the Net), no flare, even when shooting straight into the Sun. Disadvantages: Fully manual - no auto anything, including the aperture (not an issue for this ultra-wide lens and actually is an advantge, since it...

My impressions:Pros: -Sharp, sharp, sharp. Even at f/2.8, this lens is sharp. At its sharpest aperture, f/5.6, it's sharp corner-to-corner on an APS-C camera. -Very good build quality. Solid weighty feel, brass mount, and smooth dampened focus ring. -By far the least expensive 14mm around. -No problems with auto-exposure or focus confirmation (including the electronic rangefinder function on newer Nikon bodies) -FX or DX Cons: -Cheap rear cap fits a little loose. I swapped mine with a Nikon cap. -Has significant mustache-type barrel distortion in the middle of the frame. Not a lens for architectural photography. However, this can be mostly corrected in post-processing (with the $25 software PTLens, or user-created Lightroom profiles on the net). Some considerations: -Like some other ultra wide-angle lenses,... Read more |
