Very well might be, especially in the light of the odd behaviour of the aperture mechanism. I remember FredMiranda forum users reporting all sorts of mechanical malfunctions with other Samyang lenses, most notably 14/2.8 (like focusing scale being way off).
I'd retest the lens if I were Lenstip, maybe try a specimen in F mount.
