The lens comes with two lenses made of the glass with high refraction factor, which reduces its weight and dimensions. Moreover, one aspherical lens minimizes the risk of chromatic aberration. Owing to the high-quality multi-layer coatings, our lens provides high contrast and faithful color imaging. Samyang 35 mm f/1.4 AS UMC uses the system of the so called “floating” lenses allowing to preserve high image quality with minimum focusing distance. (!!!!!!!)

Wat do?

Anybody knows the price? I've never owned a samyang lens before, but i know its superb quality! And to me looks as good as the nikon (maybe a little better) excepting for the coating.

Is it a crop lens? I thought it is for 35mm as well as it is in the table. If I am buying it, I will definitely NOT buy it in 4/3 mount.

must be a FF lens, the translation is not clear enough but 35mm is indeed in the table

Well done, Samyang!!

There is no mention about that the lens was meant to be for APS-C sensors only.

They just wanna tell people to use this lens with no worry on other camera sensors such as APS-C, 4/3 etc.

I understand from that it's going to be fully functional on FF sensors.

When attached to the small sensor camera, the lens will act as bright, wide-angle lens perfect for landscape and reporting shooting. The same lens mounted on the camera with APS-C sensor, will become a popular, multitask 50mm lens. In case of cameras with 3:4 system, Samyang 35 mm F1.4 AS UMC will turn into a short, bright portrait lens with 70mm focal length equivalent.


So it is a ff lens.

They're just trying to say it's not usable in this.

For that sensor you need to get the matching pancake lens:
