Lensrentals tears apart the new Rokinon 50mm FE autofocus lens and finds it’s rather well built

Roger Cicala from Lensrentals took an Inside Look at the Rokinon 50mm AF FE Autofocus Lens and concludes:

This lens was a pleasant surprise. No, it’s not built like a tank. But it is built like a small, efficient, well-constructed lens. With some of the previous Samyang / Rokinon lenses we disassemble them going “Oh, that’s going to break. This could be a problem.” We didn’t see any obvious weak points like that with this lens. It’s a clear step up in construction quality. It should be, it’s also a step up in price point.
