Versatile focal length with high speed
The SAMYANG 24/1.4 lens has an ideal focal length and opens up many possibilities for composition and creative photography. If you use a full-frame camera, you will learn to love the 24 as a reportage and indoor wide-angle lens. Its selected focal length does not yet produce a "receding" foreground, as is very quickly the case with even shorter focal lengths, but nevertheless provides four times the image information compared to a normal focal length. This makes it very popular for landscape photography: the result is a natural reproduction and a lot of image information. The very high initial aperture of 1:1.4 also provides you with a very bright viewfinder for focusing and image composition, as well as the option of creative cropping between the foreground and background.
Internal focusing
The lens is equipped with internal focusing. The overall length does not change when focusing and the filter thread does not rotate. This greatly simplifies the use of graduated filters in landscape photography. Internal focusing via partially movable lens groups also has the advantage that good imaging performance is achieved uniformly from infinity to the close-up range. Focusing, as well as the selection of the effective aperture, is done manually by the photographer.
Aspherical lenses
The lens is compact for a full-frame wide-angle lens with a 1.4 aperture. This was achieved by using lenses made of high-refractive glass. In addition, two aspherical glass lenses ensure an increase in imaging performance, which you will notice in the image: almost all imaging errors are corrected.
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.
