The Samyang 21mm F1.4 is an ultra-fast prime lens specifically designed for mirrorless camera systems. With this lens, Samyang expands its versatile series of bright, manual prime lenses. As usual, the optics are crafted to the highest standards, featuring an all-metal housing that allows for high-resolution photos even in low ambient light.

The high aperture of f/1.4 enables creative control over shallow depth of field. The resulting bokeh is beautifully smooth, providing the best possible subject isolation at wide open settings. 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 its internal focusing. Among the eight glass elements arranged in seven groups are three multi-coated aspherical lenses and one ED glass element, which effectively reduce chromatic aberrations. This results in images with balanced color brilliance. A matching lens hood is included to prevent unwanted reflections and stray light 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, these two 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 all-metal construction. A textured metal focus and aperture ring, along with a robust front bayonet with filter thread, provide an exhilarating photography experience.
