Detail, landscape and portrait
The SAMYANG 135/2.2 lens captures details without bringing the typical telephoto effect into the picture. It is more than superior to the standard Vario 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 200 mm 35 mm lens, and with a fabulous aperture that enables safe working and unprecedented shots.
Outstanding speed
The relative aperture (speed) of a 135 mm is usually 1:2.8 or 1:3.5. With this medium-length landscape and portrait focal length in particular, a larger aperture is very often missed - or is simply almost impossible to afford. The SAMYANG 135 mm with an initial aperture of 2.0 - is 100% faster than the competition on the market. This not only enables hand-held shots to be taken 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 135 mm with a 2.8 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 and a lens made of high-refractive ED glass, it ensures excellent imaging even at close range. The close-up limit of 80 cm is deliberately kept very low - concentrating on detail is easy with this lens. Mechanically, it is designed in such a way that the tube does not rotate when focusing (this makes the use of 77 mm polarizing filters much easier) and the overall length does not change either - regardless of whether you are working at infinity or at a focusing distance of 80 cm. 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. The fine focus distribution is achieved by an almost circular aperture with 9 blades. All glass air surfaces are of course provided with an ultra multi-layer coating.
Advantages of a full-frame lens on a camera with an APS-C sensor
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. This results in maximum quality. Additional post-processing time to correct lens errors is therefore not required.
