    Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC Ultra Wide Angle Fixed Lens w/Built-in AE Chip for Nikon

    • Remarkable value.
    • Excellent value!
    • it were AF and priced higher, it would still be a very good lens/value.
    • Overall, good quality lens, great value.
    • this is a great value.
    • This lens is a great value and seems to be very well-constructed.
    • Best value for the $ I have spend in a lenskeep in
    • Worthy addition and highly useful, this Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 ultra wide angle lens does many things right, is a pleasure to use and an exceptional value for money.
    • Fine lens, great value.
    • A strong value and well made lens at the ultra-wide end, given it's manual focus as well as mild distortion constraints, one thing the Rokinon can do very well is time-lapse: capture sunsets, moonlight, starlight, clouds, and great colors along the horizon, leveraging the AE-chip that will adjust metering according to changing light conditions.
    • Still great value, but it's like gambling.
    • Not as sharp as I'd like, as my kit lense are much sharper.
    • While this wide focus adjustment range is a nice engineering achievement, in close shots (especially one meter or closer as well as in low light conditions), it however becomes difficult to see which point is in focus since in the small view-finders literally everything appears in focus
    • That strikes me as so odd that it's probably something I'm not doing right
