Samyang AF 50mm f/1.4 - detailed specs - toni-a - 07-23-2016
Come on 700$ for a Samyang 50mm f1.4...
For me it's out of question

Quote:The lens (Samyang) isn't overly sharp (to put it mildly) wide open, but it does render nicely (smooth bokeh). And it has very strong LoCA.

Honestly most of these f/1.4 shots aren't properly focused ... most have a heavy front focusing issue.
That's probably not the fault of the lens but the guy wasn't using spot AF.
e.g. take this shot:

The face is oof but the shirt is actually sharp (with hints of moirees).
Some purple fringing though.

I tend to agree that this is 200$ too much. However, I suspect that the street pricing will be around that mark.
