Inf posted:Finally used my 8mm Samyang/Rokinon today for something, this lens is drat sharp. Stopped it down to f/11, didn't even have to check the focus (just set it at infinity and literally everything beyond 1 ft or so was in focus) That looks really nice. I've only come across Samyang lenses recently, but so far they look like they have decent image quality, especially considering their price point. How is the build quality on yours? goattrails fucked around with this message at 08:50 on May 13, 2013 |

There is a VDSR version of it that i assume solves the gripes with mounting/dismounting: http://www.ephotozine.com/article/samyang-8mm-t3-8-asph-if-mc-fisheye-cs-vdslr-review-19835 (the aperture is slightly smaller however).

Combat Pretzel posted:About this Magic Lantern stuff, is it an alternative firmware? Is it worthwhile to be installed? --edit: Awww, no 6D branch yet. I have it on my 7D, and in my case it's just a layer of software I run on top by pressing a few buttons. It's just files on the CF-card. It's really good for using my MP-E 65mm macro lens because of the focus assists.

bolind posted:FWIW, a recent product/model shoot at my company was done on Phase One 40MP sensors, the argument being that it was nice to be able to crop lots and lots to use either the entire scene, close up of model's face, or even just the product (business headsets) or a detail of the product and still have enough pickles. Why not just tell the photographer to cover all eventualities during the shoot and avoid throwing details away by cropping?
