Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 Wide-Angle US UMC Aspherical Lens for Canon

  Great Value for Excellent Glass By JayDeeCee on February 20, 2014 Review submitted for Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 Wide-Angle US UMC Aspherical Lens for Canon (RO35MC) Pros: Sharp wide open, and gets better when stopping down. CA controlled fairly well. Solid Construction and focus ring is damped well. Cons: Big Piece of Glass. Other Comments: If you do not manually focusing, then this is the 35mm lens to get. The Rokinon has a minimum focus distance of under 12", so remember the DOF wide open at that distance is quite thin.

  Second-best landscape lens? By Frugality on January 03, 2014
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 Wide-Angle US UMC Aspherical Lens for Canon (RO35MC) Pros: Stellar Resolution At F11, price Cons: Relatively Large Heavy Other Comments: I bought this lens because no other Canon, Sigma, Tamron, Zeiss lens appears to have similar stellar resolution at f 11. Most other lenses show best optical performance and resolution at around f 5.6 - this lens 'peaks' at smaller apertures, which makes it a primary landscape lens. I use it together with the also stellar Samyang/Rokinon 14mm. Both lenses 'behave' very differently: the 35mm has less micro contrast, but focusing is much more accurate, while the 14mm is razor sharp not least because of excellent micro contrast, but shows focus shift and a very narrow range for infinity focus (which is precisely at the 3m mark for my copy).

  Pure awesomeness! By Vinu on May 30, 2013
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 Wide-Angle US UMC Aspherical Lens for Canon (RO35MC) Pros: Good Bokeh, Crystal Clear Clarity Cons: Manual focus, Need Expertise With Mfoc Other Comments: Real good value compared to the Canon 35mm at 1500$. Excellent picture clarity and maximum bokeh even from a minimal distance to the subject. Needs some practice with the manual focus, once you get a hang of it no one can stop you from those awesome clicks! Yes, I recommend this product Was this review helpful?     |     Report this review

  Best 35mm for the money By Adam on December 26, 2012
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 Wide-Angle US UMC Aspherical Lens for Canon (RO35MC) Pros: price, Sharpness Cons: Manual focus, No Focus Confirm Other Comments: For the money, this is an exceptional kit of glass. One of the sharpest lenses I've ever used, even wide open. Manual focus can be a challenge, but I was able to affix a confirm chip. After calibrating, confirm works fairly well. With the stock focus screen @ f1.4, there is still some variability in the confirm that can make or break an extreme closeup.
