A great lens optically, let down greatly by the poor EF mount fitting. It’s not tight at all, causing the mount to knock when focussing which is a huge pain! I don’t have this same issue on the 35mm VDSLR lens, just this 16mm.A shame!
Matthew LeeDO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE A FULL FRAME SENSOR DSLR!!! Put this on my Canon 5d mk iii and the vignetting is crazy! If you see a Samyang lens that says CSII or CS2 watch out....if it states full size sensors are acceptable maybe take a chanceo...I will be sending mine back!

Ultra wide and bright, the Samyang 16mm T2.2 ED AS UMC CS lens is optimised for cinematography with digital reflex cameras and mirrorless compact cameras with APS-C sensors. Samyang VDSLR lenses are fitted with decoupled apertures and rack-compatible gearing which provides effortless and accurate rotation of focus and aperture rings. The lens has been designed with extreme care for detail. Its optics comprise 13 elements in 11 groups, including low-dispersion ED, aspherical and hybrid-aspherical elements. The optics feature multi-layer anti-reflective UMC coatings to ensure optimum light transmission. To facilitate the reading on the focus and aperture scale, both these indexes are marked in a parallel position to the optical axis of the lens.
