Samyang 14-24mm F2.8 AutoFocus Sony FE Full Frame Lens

The Samyang (also known as Rokinon in some regions) 14-24mm F2.8 is a wide-angle zoom lens designed to work with full-frame Sony E-mount cameras, although it can also be used on Sony APS-C cameras, where it provides a longer equivalent focal length. It's aimed at photographers and videographers who need a wide aperture and wide-angle perspective for genres such as landscape, architecture, and indoor shooting. Designed for use with Sony's full-frame E-mount camera systems, but fully compatible with APS-C models where it provides a 21-36mm equivalent focal range. A bright constant f/2.8 aperture offers consistent performance across the entire zoom range and excels in low light conditions and allows for a shallow depth of field. The wide-angle zoom range of 14-24mm is particularly suited for landscape, real estate, astrophotography, and any situation where a broad perspective is desired. The complex optical design helps to minimize aberrations and deliver high-resolution, edge-to-edge sharpness across the entire zoom range.

Samyang's Ultra Multi-Coating is applied to reduce flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color fidelity. The lens incorporates a linear stepping motor (STM) for smooth, quiet, and precise autofocus, beneficial for both stills and video recording. Unlike many ultra-wide-angle lenses, this one has a standard filter thread, allowing for the direct attachment of 77mm filters without the need for additional bulky holder systems.

The Samyang 14-24mm F2.8 AutoFocus lens is a formidable tool for Sony E-mount camera users seeking a high-quality wide-angle zoom lens. Its combination of a bright f/2.8 aperture, wide-angle perspective, and the convenience of using standard 77mm screw-in filters makes it a stand-out choice for various photographic applications. Its optical quality, coupled with features like a linear STM motor and a removable lens hood, further establishes it as a competitive option in the realm of professional wide-angle zoom lenses for Sony mirrorless camera systems.
