Samyang 21/1.4

Has anyone else got one of these?

 

I got one a few weeks ago and it has been pretty much glued to my X-E2 ever since - it is very nicely built and is a great size for the X-E2.

 

Once I work out how to post here I will maybe add a couple of pictures.

Thanks for sharing. I'm planning to buy it this year once any discount appears, would be nice to see some samples from your X-E2.

I very like XF 35 1.4, it's glued to my camera. But sometimes I wish to have a bit wider option. 23mm SLR Magic 1.7 a bit too low contrast as of my taste and also catches a lot of flare light, so I hope Samyang 21mm 1.4 will solve that.

Hopefully these Flickr links will work:

Checking what the sunstars look like, f16 (possible f22) I think
