(SR5) First info about the new Samyang 85mm f/1.4 FE lens

Share

Samyang is already teasing the next lens announcement and we know it will be a Samyang 85mm f/1.4 FE lens. We got this info:

  • The lens will be on market by May (SAR note: not sure when the announcement will happen)
  • The lens is a bit shorter and thicker than the version for Canon (SAR note: Probably means it’s a new redesigned version and not a copy of the Canon)
  • The autofocus performance will be improved over the other current Samyang FE lenses

Sony vs Nikon EyeAF test by Dpreview

Share

Dpreview posted this quick Sony vs Nikon EyeAF test video:

Both cameras do a good job of recognizing the subject’s eye and sticking with it, even when she covers her face for a period of time. They’re similarly fast to find the eye again, afterward.
