Samyang 24mm Tilt-Shift lens will retail for $999!
The new Samyang T-S 24mm f/3.5 ED AS UMC is finally available for pre-order.
The US retail price is set to $999. About half the price of the Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L.

The optical design comprises sixteen lenses arranged in eleven groups, including two aspherical lenses and two Extra Dispersion (ED) lenses. Each optical component has been covered with multi-layered, anti-reflective UMC coatings, which provide superb light transmission, high contrast and natural colors.
The Tilt-Shift design allows for smooth and fine adjustment of the focal plane by an angle of +/-8.5 and enables parallel shift of the optical axis by +/-12 mm.

Pre-order the Samyang T-S 24mm f/3.5 ED AS UMC at B&H Photo for $999

Also available for Nikon and Sony Alpha mounts.

I've heard March-April, but they've been kinda slow on releases recently like their 24 f1.4. The pre-order is incouraging tho.

Cool to hear the price. Anyone know if it can take screw on filters or a lee setup?

82mm. I'm not sure how shifting affects the use of rectangular filters, but it's probably similar to the Canon.

I'm sure you would miss the electronic aperture (difference between TSE and TS).

Can't wait to see the reviews. I really want a tilt shift but this is much more in my price range than the Canon.

Is it a super-rotator design, as for me that's the huge benefit of the Canon?

If the optical quality is good then Samyang could really have hit a home run on this one - at that price point. Wow.

FWIW, Canon version has 16 elements with 3 UD and 1 aspherical.

B&H website is listing filters for the lens
looking at the lens picture, I can see threads inside the rim - one might assume that will take threaded filters at 82mm as according to specs

Looks like a great price.
Does it have independent rotation of tilt and shift?

Tilt and shift are independent similar to the nikon and canon versions.
