Samyang AF 14mm f/2.8 AS IF UMC - Nikon F

Samyang AF 14mm f/2.8 AS IF UMC - Ultra wide angle lens designed for the Nikon F mount. It is made for a full frame, but is still compatible with the APS-C sensor. By the way, it's nice that finally Samyang has started to make AF lenses.

The lightweight and compact lens is easy to take on the move, and its wide angle of view makes it perfect for shooting landscapes or starry skies, for example. A built-in focusing motor ensures fast and quiet focusing, while an electronic aperture control makes the lens compatible with all exposure and light metering settings the camera has to offer. For manual focusing, the lens features an AF/MF switch and a wide, easy-to-use focus ring. The closest focusing distance of just 20 cm allows you to accurately capture the details of close-ups.

For demanding photography

Samyang's manual 14mm is renowned for its sharpness, but the new Samyang AF 14mm f/2.8 takes optical quality to a new level. The lens is constructed with 15 lens elements in 10 groups. Two of the lenses are aspherical lens elements, which prevent distortion while ensuring maximum contrast and sharpness across the entire image area, even at the widest apertures. Four High Refractive (HD) glass elements and one Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass element reduce colour aberrations.

Samyang's advanced Ultra Multi Coating (UMC) effectively prevents reflections and stray light, making images bright and colourful. Point light sources such as the sun are beautifully reproduced thanks to the seven-leaf dimmer. The lens' weatherproof rubber gaskets protect the construction from moisture and dust.
