The 85f1.2 should be sweet if the pricing is right
Did they introduce aperture coupling?

As the 85/1.2 is only of Canon (which is relief to me, honestly - manual focusing with such a thing...) I really wonder how a comparison with Nikkor 14-24, the Zeiss 15/2.8, Irix lens and this Samyang would be like. Samyang is stealing pretty blunt Zeiss' design wit a sidelook to the Milvus-series.

The 85mm f1.2 could have used a bit more room for the back element still. The optical design is not totally unlike the ancient Canon, even with 1 asphere. The Canon has such a big back element that the contact block covers part of it.
