Quote:Dave, how much would you bet you got a perfect copy of that fisheye? I bet it has issues a camera sensor can't see! =)

Seriously, I've measured 12 copies of the 14mm, 10 of the 24, 10 of the 35, 10 of the 50, and 10 of the 85 and I have not once seen a samyang without some problems.

It's enough of a gamble in itself just buying a lens without laying out bets on top, Ladbrooks are very wise keeping their nose out of the lens industry! Rolleyes

As it happens I bought t from England from a store destocking Pentax for £150 . I dare say it you delved into it you could surely find some glitch or another, but as maybe you've gathered I don't settle for decentered lenses and it that department I can't complain. It isn't a sharp lens to the edges till F8-11, but overall it's a goodie. Also the Pentax mount conserves the automatisms from the body, no AF of course.
