A reader contacted Rokinon and asked about the previously rumored 50mm f/1.2 lens. Referring to a Facebook post from February 2014 where Samyang Asia said that they will not release such lens, Rokinon responded that they are still working on a new 50mm lens that will be released “very soon”:
Today Samyang released several new lenses (see teaser): Samyang 7.5mm T3.8 Fish-eye Cine lens (specs) Samyang 10mm T3.1 Cine lens (specs) Samyang 12mm T2.2 Cine lens (specs) Samyang 35mm f/1.4 Canon AE lens (specs) Samyang 300mm f/6.3 Mirror UMC CS DSLR lens (specs) For pricing and availability check this link. Press release and additional images:
Samyang has a new teaser for a “second step of Samyang Optics in 2014″ that will happen on April 28th. My guess is that they will announce a new line of autofocus (AF) lenses and a redesigned logo (previously reported here).
Samyang announced three new lenses: Samyang 12mm 1:2.0 NCS CS: more info & specs | price & pre-order Samyang 8mm T3.1 V-DSLR UMC Fish-eye II: more info & specs | price & pre-order Samyang 10mm 1:2.8 ED AS NCS CS: more info & specs | price & pre-order
Samyang posted on their Facebook page that they will have a new lens announced on March 21st. Stay tuned for details. Update: I am sure the new lens will not be a zoom nor a tilt-shift. Here is another teaser published on Facebook:
Samyang will start producing autofocus (AF) lenses. The company will make the official announcement in the next few days. Samyang will also reveal a new logo (see above). Stay tuned for more details.
