Will this work with a Sony A7RII without any cropping?
Asked by: Christopher
While this will work with the A7RIII, it covers an APS-C Sensor only. You will only be able to use this lens in a Cropped Sensor Mode with the A7RIII.

question

I had the Rokinon and I bought the Samyang recently and was comparing the two and the focus on Samyang is at a different mark on the focus ring and is a bit softer than the Rokinon. You think I might have a bad copy of the Samyang? See the comparisons here:https://ibb.co/hfEMSThttps://ibb.co/dYR1SThttps://ibb.co/gRajgohttps://ibb.co/kA7x1ohttps://ibb.co/jm1eE8https://ibb.co/nsy4gohttps://ibb.co/eAnanThttps://ibb.co/g74c1ohttps://ibb.co/mmcanT
Asked by: Sameer P.
Sorry, we cannot see those images. If both the focus distance is off and the image is soft, then that is all you need to know that you should exchange the lens. The performance of these two lenses should be identical since they are made in the same factory, by the same people, and out of the same parts. Only the name is different.

The Samyang 12mm f/2.0 NCS CS Lens for Micro Four Thirds Mount (Black) is compatible with the original OM-D E-M5. This lens does not rely on any electronic communication with the camera, so it is compatible with any MFT camera.
