Samyang 24mm T1.9 V-AF Sony FE Cine Lens
The Samyang V-AF 24MM T1.9 Lens for Sony FE was created for all video creators, ranging from single-person video creators to small productions as well as filmmakers. With the development of interchangeable lens cameras and the prevalence of video accessories, anyone can easily produce video content. Samyang Optics will apply elements optimised for imaging to autofocus lenses to satisfy creators' desire to create high-quality video content more easily. V-AF has increased compatibility from the gimbal to the drone by applying the consistent form factor from ultra-wide angles to semi-telephoto angles. The tiny size of &empty 72.2 x 72.1 mm and light weight of 280g reduced the burden of drone payloads. As the V-AF series provide a unified centre of gravity and size, there is no need for extra setting which greatly reduces time when it comes to using a gimbal. There is a Tally Lamp that displays the filming status with LED light so even a single creator can quickly check the recording status. The focus ring has been redesigned to allow follow focus to be applied without additional accessories. There is also a custom switch and a focus button to set the optimised function for filming. With V-AF customised accessories for professional video shooters and consistent color tone which V-AF represents, videos can be created more conveniently.

I purchased the 35mm and 75mm Samyang Cine V-AF lenses, hoping for lightweight, prime, autofocus alternatives to Sony's 24-70 2.8 GM II. But after a side-by-side comparison, I returned the Samyangs.Compared with the Sony lens, the Samyang lenses had dramatically slower autofocus. I had my production partner sit in as an interview subject, and asked her to move her head around as if speaking in an animated way - left, right, forward, backward. With the Samyang lenses, immediately she went out of focus and it took the lens about two seconds (!) to restore focus. But the Sony lens never missed a beat: she stayed in focus constantly. (With both, I had the camera - a Sony FX6, which has a outstanding face-tracking AF - set to the highest AF speed and ... MoreI purchased the 35mm and 75mm Samyang Cine V-AF lenses, hoping for lightweight, prime, autofocus alternatives to Sony's 24-70 2.8 GM II.

(With both, I had the camera - a Sony FX6, which has a outstanding face-tracking AF - set to the highest AF speed and sensitivity.)Also, the Samyang lenses were notably softer, especially outside of the center of the frame. They're also much less contrasty. Of course, neither of those characteristics is inherently negative: with the Samyang, you get a look with character! But for me, that character makes the lens less versatile than the Sony. For example, I can add a Glimmerglass filter to the Sony to soften its tack-sharp edge and reduce a bit of contrast, when the shoot calls for that look. But if I'm filming something that needs to look sharper and less filmic, then I can use it as-is.The Samyang would suit some circumstances, but not all - and right now, working in the field as a one- or two-person crew, without a massive budget, I'm more inclined toward versatile gear.

Two of the biggest drawbacks of this series of lenses are that they have slow autofocus and that they have a weird tally light on the front of the lens (and the side, but that one doesn't confront me as much). This tally light can be helpful with professional talent, but with documentary style shooting, it can be an extra intimidating factor. It also reflects badly on glass or even lightly colored objects (like paper or food labels). Fortunately, both problems can be easily addressed with the inexpensive Samyang Lens Station accessory. Beyond firmware updates for these lenses, which appear to be coming pretty often from Samyang right now, the Lens Station also allows for adjustments to focus speed and the ability to turn off the tally lights.Optically, the V-AF ... MoreTwo of the biggest drawbacks of this series of lenses are that they have slow autofocus and that they have a weird tally light on the front of the lens (and the side, but that one doesn't confront me as much).

They get very sharp around f/4, although I do note a bit of vignetting fully open. They render stuff really nicely with pleasing out of focus areas. But the real selling point is that these lenses are all the exact same size, weight and T-stop. They make gimbal work a lot easier! And being very small and light, they travel like champs.I already own the 75mm and 24mm versions. I will be happily purchasing the 45mm and 20mm as soon as they are available. So, just make sure you have the Lens Station to provide the proper adjustments and updates that these lenses really need.

Purchased for use on DJI Ronin 4D, which worked well with the lens subject to a firmware update. Lens required Samyang Lens Station to make it work for my specific application or to update its own firmware or settings. Both items arrived within one working day.

I purchased the first three lenses in this line with an eye on using them for gimbal work with the Sony FX3. They have not disappointed. Their uniform size, color cast and weight, combined with their solid optical quality and AF capability (more on this in a second) sets them apart from a crowd of what I can only judge as poorer choices. I'm often on this focal length for walkaround gimbal work, but I know that I can quickly change lenses at any moment without having to re-balance. I have also found that stopping down to T/4 or so results in very crisp images, so I tend to aim for that when situations allow, but they are still fairly good wide open. Now, do they suffer from some imperfections? The devil's always in the details, and I would defer to the litany of ... MoreI purchased the first three lenses in this line with an eye on using them for gimbal work with the Sony FX3.

Now, do they suffer from some imperfections? The devil's always in the details, and I would defer to the litany of online reviewers who are much more comprehensive and scientific in their approach. You can Google 'em yourself. But, I'm not bothered by any of that for all of their many strong points and real-world shooting performance in my experience. Basically, they all look great to me, and the 24mm is especially so.Importantly, I do recommend getting the Samyang Lens Station to be able to upgrade their firmware, which does change regularly. You can also use it to deactivate their onboard tally lights individually if you'd like. It's a cheap accessory, and it's pretty important if you have these lenses.So, about that AF... A lot of folks online seem to think it's too slow. I disagree, as these are intended to mimic manual focus pulls out of the box, but that's really neither here nor there if you get the Lens Station. Because you can adjust focus speed using that accessory, too. So, consider that a tuning device to adjust things to your liking with these lenses. Since being able to do that is not something that's typical of most lenses out there, I think it's important to mention and suggest.If you're a Sony FX3/FX30/A7SIII user, or even a user of other E-mount models, and you find yourself on a gimbal regularly for your work, these lenses are uniquely capable of improving your workflow and consistency. I'm glad I have them!
