The 12mm f2.0 ROKINON (Samyang) is the ideal lens for astro-photography. With large open aperture and shutter speeds between 25-30 seconds at ISO 1600 you achieve great results. I like the lens and

Are you from Italy?

I just received my Samyang 12mm from foto-klik.si for €299 (I'm from the Netherlands, and the price is including shipping)

It's a camera shop in Ljubljana - Slovenia. Orders can be payed by Paypal. 

It's send by GLS with a great track & trace

I really recommend them considering this shipment

 

OH, and it comes with a free Samyang 67mm protection filter ! (not that I use one, but it's the thought .. )

My Rokinon 12mm finally arrived!!! Yeah!!!

 

I could not test it out much today but I was able to take a few shots.

 

I went past this beautiful tree near my house the other day, so today i took a detour and stopped there for a shot.  Funny thing that I thought I was far enough, where I would usually stop for the shot, and with the 12mm I was infact pretty far away.  I took the shot below from this place.  I did crop a bit the shot, and did some editing in LR.

Then I realized I had to get closer, if I wanted to fill the frame with the tree, and took this other shot:

I actually should have gone closer, but the wife and kids were in the car waiting...so...some other time.

 

We went to the mall so I took some shots to test it out inside:

Last one was a stealth shot making of kind of.  The shot did not really come out that good. I did some cropping but this is in a really small elevator.  The possibilities...

Hello.  I have a question.  I was looking at my shots with the rokinon 12mm and the lens information does not show in the Exif.  I know that the lens has manual focus and can't send the aperture information either, but I thought that at least the lens information would be placed in the Exif.  Only the focal lenght is there because I included it manually in the camera.

 

Is there a way to add, in Lightroom, the lens information to the Exif?

 

Thank you.

So..I was doing another test shot with the Rokinon 12mm.  I decided to shoot out the window.  The shot below is straight out of the camera.  No editing.  ISO 3200, shutter at 1" and f/2.  Kind of handheld leaning against the window.  There is a black area on the top right.  That is a cross section of the net I have in my porch so the kids won't fall out.  You can also see it on the bottom left.

 

What do you think of the shot?  I was kind of impressed.  Not that good a shot really.  I should have done some straightening, but, I think it shows some cool possibilities. 

 

You might want to head over to flickr to see it larger.

For all the "bokeh lovin' flower close-up guys" out there: ;)

 

Cause of its minimum focus distance of 0,2m and the f/2.0 this lens has huge potential for these kind of shots!!! I really love the bokeh of this little ultra-wide-angle!!!!

The shots are slightly edited jpeg snapshots without any perspective correction. (for full size click the image and choose original size on Flickr)

Hope you like it.

      gimbals (& threads getting spammed)

      By jshire · Posted

      Hi, I'm researching a gimbal to get someone as a present & they use a Fuji XS-10. I did a quick search of previous threads on gimbals but all of them seem to either get no replies or spammed by a link to an Amazon list. I'd appreciate any comments from folks who've actually used specific gimbals with the XS-10. I'm aware that some, such as certain models from Zhiyun, DJI & FeiyuTech either don't say that they are fully compatible with the XS-10 but other sites say they do work ok but some functions don't. It's quite difficult to work out which functions work & which don't. Thanks.

      A portrait with a 28mm lens

      By DavidJohn · Posted

      This was snapped during a lunch.  Total shooting time—a few seconds. We so often read that a proper "portrait" should be snapped with a longer than normal lens, a low ISO to get lots of detail, and have a soft light held up above the head, and slightly to the side. The key, in my opinion, is always carry a camera.  Have your camera available to capture candid, authentic photographs.  Available light, no posing.   This portrait used 2000 ISO, the lens wide open at f4, and 1/100 sec. to stop any movement.  I didn't even take time to compose—I just snapped.  I leave the "Face Detection" on unless I'm photographing a landscape or subject other than a person. The GFX100RF has the equivalent of a 28mm lens.  The large sensor renders fine detail even at fairly high ISO ratings.  And the drawing of the lens is just perfect in my opinion.  It was set to B & W, with slightly reduced sharpness and clarity (set in-camera).  Ideal for "portraits."  Now, for some subjects I will likely increase the sharpness and clarity to the normal setting.  The camera is new, and I'm still experimenting with it.
