p.12 #1 · some Samyang 14mm love


Mr. Park pm'ed me back. He used 150x150. He isn't sure but he thinks a 4x6 might work. Just passing this along in case anyone else is interested.

how is this lens for indoor museum/church shots? I don't see many samples. Would the distortion ruin the indoor shots?

shooting the crooked buildings at Bodie it works just fine

more seriously - if you need things straight, get PTLens and the proper profile and things wil be pretty straight. $25 well spent.

Please test the samyang thoroughly before you go to the grand canyon, because there are quite some copies that have issues. But if you have a good copy it is great as can be seen in this thread.

Here's one from my trip last month:


Tourists by -AVN-, on Flickr

273s exposure for the water and the bridge to blur the tourists using my filter holder. Another exposure for the sky.

just want to throw this current promotion deal into this thread:

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/880768-REG/Bower_sly1428ae_14mm_f_2_8_For_Nikon.html

$299 with chip, best price in a long time. Bower/Rokinon/Samyang are all the same thing.

Thats correct, all the same lens. I believe Samyang is the original manufacturer, the others are just rebranding for what ever reason.

What tests should I perform to the lens once I get it apart from focus to infinity and minimum focus distance?

The first thing I would check is if there is any decentering defect. Is the left side just as sharp as the right side and vice versa? I read some posts that that is an issue sometimes with this lens. If that's OK and you can focus from minimum to infinity then it should be OK I think.

Excellent work Dustin!
Fred, I enjoyed your work up at Glacier. I think #1 is less distracting w/o stars, but the night shot is pretty darn cool.

---------------

My Bower 14mm arrived today, so now I am both inspired and equipped!
Now I need to make the time . . .
