p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Samyang 75 1.8 Image Thread

I think this wonderful little lens also deserves an image thread.

I received my copy yesterday and took some first shots today. As some of you might know I really love my Samyang 85mm 1.4 (a real gem and bokeh "monster": https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1610956/0), however, sometimes I prefer the smaller version.

It's fun to take pictures with the new Samyang 75mm. So small, so light, however, in my opinion still very convincing in terms of its image quality.

Maybe you can also contribute to this collection of Samyang 75mm 1.8 shots.

I picked this up for my new puppy—I’ll give the new 35 1.8 a whirl too.

The model is so cute, the lens is irrelevant

Thank you--he's very mellow and a quick study. He's already twice the weight from the last photo--which was about 5 weeks ago

i just sold my 85 1.4 GM, and bought this lens for 295. I bought the 135 1.8GM as my portrait lens now, so i didnt want to have both GM's for the same use. figured at less than 300, why not.

Very interested in this and samyang 35mm f1.8.

Zeitlos, how is eye AF on your camera? Would like to see your opinion for image quality, color, and rendering between this and your samyang 85mm f1.4.

Thx

I have the SY35/1.8 and the SY75/1.8. They are both good lenses (with the 75mm slightly ahead) and whenever taking a day trip or going somewhere these two lenses are the ones I carry.
Cheap, good, possible to carry for days. I like them both, a lot.
And then, as nothing is perfect: no aperture rings. Well, you can have one but then you don't have a focusing ring instead.

Thank you for the nice images everybody!

I totally agree; I have the 75 as well as the 18 f/2.8 and 35 f/1.8

Not perfect but from a cost/performance perspective......right up there.
