Overview

The Samyang/Rokinon 100mm f/2.8 Macro is a manual focus lens offering 1:1 magnification and solid sharpness when focused correctly, though The Phoblographer notes it can be soft in the center. Build quality is decent with smooth focus ring, but lacks weather sealing and has no electronic contacts on some versions, complicating use. It suits budget-conscious macro enthusiasts willing to work manually, but may frustrate those seeking convenience.
