Anyone using the Samyang 100mm Macro F2.8 - Fuji X Mount

[JLP]

Helo everyone,

 

I was just wondering if anyone here has some experience with the Samyang 100mm Macro on a Fuji X.

 

If so, how does it perform?

 

Thanks for any input ;-)

Have had that lens for almost a year.  It is a very sharp lens.  The Rokinon/Samyang lenses are very well built.  I bought it when Fuji dropped the longer macro and announced the 85.  I also have the Zeiss 50mm.  I find it too short for insects or moving bugs.

Thank you for your answer ;-)

 

Since posting this topic. I had buy this lens and indeed it is a very nice one. Good buy and glad I did.

It is too big for a Fuji, I guess. I used it for long times especially for portrait and results looks really good, it is a wonderfull lens, but really really big and heavy.

I've been using it for six months but i have a sharpeninf issue. I use this lens with x-t2 body. How do you manage to take clear pictures with a manual lens?
