    Overview

    The Samyang AF 14mm F2.8 EF / Rokinon AF 14mm F2.8 EF is a compact, lightweight ultra-wide prime with fast and accurate autofocus, a first for Samyang in Canon EF mount. It features a metal/alloy body with weather sealing around the mount, though some note the body is plastic. Optically, it shows moderate barrel distortion (~3.8%) and vignetting (~2.3EV at f/2.8), but these are correctable. Resolution is decent but not perfect. It suits travel and astrophotography enthusiasts seeking an affordable, weather-sealed AF ultra-wide.
