The Samyang 21mm F1.4 is an ultra-fast prime lens specifically designed for mirrorless camera systems. With this addition, Samyang enhances its versatile series of bright, manual prime lenses. As usual, the optics are expertly crafted, featuring a full metal housing and enabling high-resolution photos even in low ambient light.

The high light intensity of f/1.4 allows for creative control over shallow depth of field. The resulting bokeh is beautifully smooth, providing the best possible subject isolation at wide open aperture. With a focal length of 21mm, this lens is a lightweight wide-angle option, making it the perfect companion for shooting landscapes, architecture, street photography, and reportage.

The very compact dimensions of this light giant remain unchanged due to internal focusing. Among the eight glass elements arranged in seven groups are three multi-coated aspherical lenses and one ED glass element, effectively reducing chromatic aberrations. This results in images with balanced color brilliance. The included lens hood helps prevent unwanted reflections and light flare when needed.

The multi-layer coating of the lens elements ensures high-contrast image reproduction without reflections or ghosting. Due to their high imaging performance, both optics are well-prepared for the demands of current and future high-performance digital cameras.

As with all Samyang lenses, the housing is made of high-quality, fully metal construction. A textured metal focus and aperture ring, along with a robust front bayonet with filter thread, provide an exciting photography experience.
