Positives:
I recently got my hands on the Samyang 135mm T/2.2 VDSLR ED UMC lens and I must say, I’m impressed! The lens produces incredibly sharp images with amazing colors that compliment my Black Magic Pocket 6K camera’s color technology perfectly. I also own its smaller siblings (24, 35, 50, 85mm) and they all produce beautiful results. The build quality is impressive with great construction and smooth focusing. I’ve used this lens for both portraits and landscapes, and it has delivered exceptional results in both scenarios.

Negatives:
One minor complaint I have with the lens is the infinity stop not being exactly at the right spot. However, I’ve noticed this to be a recurring issue with all Rokinon lenses, including this one. Although this doesn’t affect the quality of images produced, it can be a little frustrating when trying to achieve a sharper focus, especially when shooting with a wide aperture. It’s not a major issue, but I feel that it could be improved.

Conclusion:
Overall, the Samyang 135mm T/2.2 VDSLR ED UMC lens is an outstanding piece of glass that produces sharp, beautiful images with amazing colors. Despite the slightly over infinity stop point, it’s definitely a must-have for photographers and videographers who love vintage lenses. Its build quality and overall performance make it worth the investment and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to take their photography or videography game to the next level.
