Samyang 8 mm f/2.8 UMC Fisheye
1. Introduction
The Samyang 8 mm f/3.5 Asph. IF MC Fisheye was especially well received by its users – it was a diagonal “fisheye” lens designed for small APS-C/DX sensors. Not less positive opinions got the Samyang 7.5 mm f/3.5 UMC Fish-eye MFT, launched in 2011, a “fisheye” for mirrorless Mcro 4/3 cameras. Now the company followed up the advantage so to speak and presented a similar model designed for Sony and Samsung mirrorless devices (NEX and NX). The fact that the aperture value increased to f/2.8 is worth emphasizing here.
We managed to obtain this lens for testing purposes courtesy of the Foto-Tip company.
