Clarification on the upcoming Samyang 12mm f/2 mirrorless lens

By PR admin | Published: September 1, 2013

Samyang_10mm_2.8_ED_AS_UMC_CS_1

The Samyang 10mm f/2.8 ED AS UMC CS lens (pictured above) I mentioned few days ago is actually nothing new – the lens was announced during the Photokina show last year but it’s not yet officially released.

I was able to confirm the upcoming new 12mm f/2 lens for mirrorless cameras, which has nothing to do with the already existing Samyang 10mm f/2.8 designed for DSLRs. The upcoming 12mm f/2 will be only available for mirrorless cameras and will be announced in the next few weeks.

Sorry for the confusion.
