question
Just how 'manual' is this lens? Is it a throwback to the days when you had to fully open the aperture, focus, then close the aperture, then shoot the picture? Will the lens at least automatically stop down to aperture I set when I trip the shutter?
Yes the lens will close down to the aperture that you set. I find this lens to be a great choice I love it.

question
if this lens does not have electronic components does that mean if you put it on a Sony a7/a7r body it shouldnt have a apsc crop? I'm a little confused about what dpreview's article saying how rokinon has 2 new lens for the Sony FE mount. And this was linked to this lens.
The image will not be cropped on an a7 or a7R; though this has nothing to do with the lack of electronics. The Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 lens for Sony E mount is a full frame lens, so its image circle will cover the entire sensor of a full frame E mount camera.

What the version with AE chip can do vs without chip, on my Canon EOS RP, regarding focus and exposure ?
The AE (Automatic Exposure) chip in the Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 AS IF UMC Lens for Canon EF with AE Chip is designed to relay focus confirmation to the viewfinder in the camera, enable the use of auto-exposure modes, and transfers EXIF data between the lens and camera.

question
Hi, I'm from France, where this lens is still not available.It's why I want to buy one from your shop, but I have some concerns.Should I pay any VAT or custom fees or maybe taxes to deliver this lens in France ?Thanks a lot for helping me.Valry
B&H does not apply any tax on orders shipped outside NY State. In the USA we do not have any VAT type taxes to add to your order either. International orders are generally subject to local import duties and taxes. There is a feature in the cart called the landed cost calculator, where you can choose to have the taxes/import duties calculated and collected by B&H beforehand. Once you entered in your country of destination in the shipping calculator, two options would pop-up: Pay Now, or Pay on Delivery. If you click on Pay Now, and then choose a shipping option, the Duties and Tax would be calculated.
