Frequently asked questions
Does the Samyang 12mm f/2.0 have autofocus?
No, this is a fully manual focus lens. It features a smooth manual focus ring and a physical aperture ring, making it a favorite for videographers and landscape photographers who prefer tactile control.
Is the Samyang 12mm f/2.0 good for astrophotography?
Yes, it is one of the best budget-friendly lenses for astrophotography. The f/2.0 aperture allows for significant light intake, and its optical design minimizes coma, resulting in sharp, pinpoint stars.
Can I use this lens on a Full-Frame camera?
While it can be mounted on full-frame cameras (like the Sony A7 series) in 'Crop Mode,' it is specifically designed for APS-C sensors. Using it in full-frame mode will result in heavy vignetting.
