Samyang announced SFH-14 filter holder for its 14mm f/2.8 lens
Samyang Europe introduces a new product to its lineup – the SFH-14 filter holder designed specifically for the Samyang 14mm 1:2.8 ED AS IF UMC lens. In addition to the holder, three rectangular filters manufactured by Cokin company will also be released.

Samyang filter holder SFH-14 has been designed from scratch for the Samyang 14mm lens in standard and V-DSLR cine versions. The new filter holder solves the common problem of mounting filters on a lens that has been designed without filter threads. The holder is made of lightweight and durable ABS plastic. In order to eliminate internal reflections, its interior has been flocked giving it a velvety black color. The holder comes with two filter slots so two filters can be used simultaneously. The Samyang filter holder features a rotating mount so that filters can be used in both vertical and horizontal orientation.



Three kinds of rectangular filters will also be made available, each 161 x 139 x 3 mm in size, specially designed and manufactured by the renowned Cokin company. The three filters will include the 154 ND8, 121M ND4 and 123s. Model 154 ND8 is a neutral gray filter of ND8 opacity that will allow for slower shutter speeds thereby enabling the blurring of moving objects (e.g. clouds, water, traffic). It can also be used by filmmakers who want to achieve a shallow depth of field in strong sunlight. The graduated 121M ND4 gray filter is mainly designed for landscape photography and architecture. It allows for a reduction in contrast between light and dark portions of the frame. The third filter available, the Cokin 123S, is a graduated blue filter that can be used to obtain or accentuate a blue sky effect in the landscape photography.

Samyang SFH-14 Holder Specifications:
  1. Material: ABS plastic, metal
  2. Weight: 115 g (weight without filters)
  3. Dimensions: 180 x 168 x 45 mm
  4. Price: 32 €

Cokin Filter Specifications:
  1. Material: optical resin
  2. Dimensions: 161 x 139 x 3 mm
  3. Weight: 130 g
  4. Price (RRP):
  5. Cokin 154 ND8 – 63 €
  6. Cokin 121M ND4 – 68 €
  7. Cokin 123S – 68 €

That's awesome. Pricing even sounds reasonable. But where's the CPL?!?

Great news! Having a ND filter will be great. This lens is way too wide to use a CPL effectively.

Looks very interesting! And the price seems like it could be reasonable.

Any chance it could be modified for 17TSE or Tokina 16-28?

Those are some huge filters. They make my 100mm filters seem small in comparison.
I don't think I'll be getting it just for one lens, unless I start to use the Samyang a lot more.
For now handholding the 100mm will have to do, but it's nice to have the option for future purchase.

Samyang continues to be a price leader.

Possibly with modifications, looks like it clips onto the lens like the lens cap, not sure they are interchangeable

Very cool, but a whole new holder and set of filters for just my 14mm in conjunction with my Lee foundation kit and all those filters I already carry. Probably not. The idea of it possibly working on the Canon 14mm is a nice thought or possibilty as earlier mentioned.

Similar thinking (another holder/filter) but the price is way better than the 3rd party solutions.
I am tempted to get it but how often would I need a GND on my 14mm RokYang

Exciting. And may save me from investing $2,500 on a Nikon 14-24, filters and canon adapter. Need a CPL and a 10 stop nd as well. Chances of that?

Nowadays I'm a Canon-Sony-Ricoh guy.

I usually post a thread in a board and then move it to another when it's relevant. That is what I did here.
All the best,
Fred
