New Samyang 135mm Lenses
Samyang has announced the release of 2 new lenses: Samyang 135mm f/2.0 ED UMC telephoto lens and 135mm T2.2 VDSLR ED UMC cine lens.
The Samyang 135mm f/2.0 ED UMC is a manual focus telephoto lens for full frame and smaller sensor sizes.
Samyang says: "It expresses vibrant colour and soft bokeh, making this the ideal lens for shooting portrait, scenery, wildlife and photo-journalism."
The lens features 11 elements in 7 groups, including extra low dispersion (ED) to offer high resolution across the image and the fast f/2.0 aperture allows versatile control when shooting under tricky lighting conditions. Samyang’s Ultra Multi Coating (UMC) is used to optimise light transmission whilst minimising flare and ghosting. Close focus is 0.8m and the floating element design captures as much light as possible, minimising spherical aberration and distortion. The body is compact and solid, made of high-strength aluminium alloy and the detachable lens hood protects from flare and ghosting.
