I've done very little playing with this lens (haven't had the time), but I've been quite impressed, especially considering the price. Where it really excels is with close-up photos of isolated subjects and smooth, smooth bokeh. So, naturally, neither of the following fit that format.
Attached are two pics under different circumstances: a night group shot, and a candid portrait. BTW, my lens is the non-CPU, Rokinon flavor of Samyang 85/1.4.
The first shot was taken at night, under high pressure sodium street lights, of a bunch of photographers obsessing over a broken down old truck. Shot handheld at f/1.4, 1/50, ISO 2500. I took several, but someone moved in almost every shot.
Next is a quick portrait of a friend playing his axe. Shot handheld with the on-camera flash at f/2.0, 1/60, ISO 200.
