    Samyang 12mm f2

    Out yesterday with the X-T1 and Samyang 12mm f2.

    Its been a while since I've used a super-wide so need to get my eye back into the habit of looking for and creating shots with it - had fun though...

    Looks good, I've been working with my UWA lens a lot lately, the lens really makes you search for suitable subjects.

    Super quality. The Samyang WA lenses are a real bargain. Nice pics BTW. The conversions have worked particularly well.

    Wonderful conversions and ideal compositions when using such a short focal length!

    Robin, I really like #2. Love the contrast in the lines and the sharp edges.

    Great photos, Robin. I like the second one the best. It has very strong leading lines

    Thanks all.

    Really enjoying using this lens; stop it down a bit, fix the focus a little way in and just fire away, tweaking the exposure comp as you go along. Very simple and with very little to do I feel I'm more in control somehow.

    Lovely images - but not going with the flow, I like the 1st best. I enjoy going ultra wide angle too and agree it makes me feel more in control too.
