Detail, landscape and portrait
This lens brings details into the picture without the typical telephoto effect. It is more than superior to the standard varifocal lens of the digital camera due to its freedom of distortion and aperture. It can be handled freehand and even snapshots are no problem with this focal length. Users of an APS-C camera will be delighted: they finally have a medium-length landscape lens that corresponds to the image impression of a 200mm 35mm lens, and with a fabulous aperture that enables safe working and unprecedented shots.
Excellent speed
Usually, the largest aperture (speed) of a 135mm lens is at a minimum of F2.8 or F3.5. Especially with this medium-length landscape and portrait focal length, a larger aperture was very often missed - or is simply almost impossible to afford. The Samyang 135mm, with its initial aperture of F2, is 100% faster than the competition on the market. This not only makes it possible to take hand-held shots even in critical lighting conditions, but above all provides creative highlights by allowing the subject to be virtually cropped: the depth of field is half that of a 135mm with F2.8 aperture. At the same time, the viewfinder is twice as bright, which helps enormously with image assessment.
High-quality optics
The lens has a very innovative optical design: with 11 lenses in 7 groups, together with a lens made of high-refractive ED glass, it ensures excellent imaging even at close range. The close-up limit of 80cm is deliberately kept very low - concentrating on detail is easy with this lens. Mechanically, it is designed so that the tube does not rotate when focusing (which makes using 77mm polarizing filters much easier) and the overall length does not change - regardless of whether you are working at infinity or at a focusing distance of 80cm. This is achieved by a second inner tube, which is moved within the outer mount for focusing. Another advantage: the center of gravity remains almost the same when focusing. The fine focus distribution is achieved by an almost circular aperture with 9 blades. All glass air surfaces are of course coated with Samyang's own ultra multi-coating UMC.
Advantages of a full-frame lens on a camera with an APS-C sensor (or smaller)
Save time in post-processing: a large number of lens errors such as distortion, edge blur or vignetting occur on the outer areas of the image. If you use a lens calculated for full format on a camera with an APS-C sensor, these areas are not used at all. This ensures maximum quality. Additional post-processing time to correct lens errors is therefore not required.
