yo, that flickering red lighting is annoying and that rgb setup is so wack and played out. if you were a teenager id understand but I cant take you seriously with those fans there.
I went for the Sony; it drops to less than half the price of the Samyang when its for sale on Amazon; I got mine for 129 new. That's in the UK, but a UK pound is equivalent to a US dollar when it comes to retail prices, once taxes are factored in.
Nice comparison. If you do the Zeiss/Samyang comparison, can you mention differences you see in real world use pertaining to focal length? How much difference does the focal length make in terms of bokeh and unflattering distortion in mid range portraits for example> 45mm is an unusual focal length. closer to 50mm than 35mm, but wider than 50 for sure. (Or 55mm)
I actually love the character of the Sony. I don't love the colors I tend to get with Samyang lenses (I've used four of them), and I dislike how they feel and look, for some reason. I wish Sony would update their nifty, but the AF speed and accuracy I get with the 50 1.8 is pretty fantastic and I have no need to replace.
@@asa9268 a7iii and a7c. No harm in taking the word of the majority reviewers. I've never missed a shot on a job due to the Sony being too slow or misreading the plane, though the Samyang/Rokinon is faster. It's not a noticeable advtange to me personally.
since sony 50mm struggle to perform, is it samyang much more better to capture moment in split second? i have 50mm 1.8 and the performance not much faster and accuracy a little bit off.. maybe im considering the samyang 45mm 1.8.
I do have Samyang 35mm 2.8 and I cannot see the point to get 45mm lens but rather 50mm or 55mm lens. I do like pictures but if video is needed I do use Sony 24-105 G lens with OSS and have no problems.
Hi sir great fan your channel.. I wanted advice, I own Sony a7iii and 85 1.8. Option 1 : shud I sell kit lens 28-70 3.5-5.6 and get Tamron 28-75 2.8 instead ? Option 2 : keep kit lens and buy samyang 45 1.8 or samyang 35 1.4 instead ?
One of these is not like the other.

Hi,thanks for the interesting review!Don't you think the Samyang 45 mm lens delivers too warm tones compared to the Sony 50 mm?
I love the 45mm field of view for some reason. I have 35mm and 50mm but somehow I love the sigma 30mm on apsc sony a6000 which is 30mm x 1,5 = 45mm
The Samyang is a fantastic buy!
Please do the comparison between Zeiss 55 and Samyang 45.
On it.

43mm is actually dead normal so the 45 should be pretty close to zero distortion, Pentax is the only one that makes a true 43
I don't have the Sony lens but I tested it and it is very good in my opinion. It's a bargain for sure. Never tested the Samyang though.

What camera do you pair it with for that fantastic af speed and accuracy?alot of reviews online say otherwise

This 45mm is tempting. Wondering if it's worth it since I already own the 35mm 1.8 Suggestions, please.
That's a bit too close in focal length for me personally.. consider an 85. Great combo!
Was the firmware up to date to version 3 on the Sony ? Apparently it makes a huge difference for autofocus.
Thanks for this comparison

The 45 is the better lens in this case.

The only issue I have with the Samyang 45mm is an issue I have with all of their lenses - you need an external dock to update the firmware.
🤣
If you have two lenses it's a very good investment
Does the samyang 45mm has noticeable distortion?
what do you mean by dock for firmware for the Samyang lens?

Can't go wrong with the Tamron. A big step up from the kit lens.
@@StefanMalloch sure thanks reply :-) keep creating awsum videos
Can you make vedio Samyang 45mm vs Sigma 45mm
sony af isnt loud in video mode since it moves slower
good review thanks
Did the Sony have the V3 firmware update?
I would also like to know that, did you end up purchasing any of them?
No detail comparison of sharpness @1.8 and bokeh side by side. То see a difference
Samyang 50mm f1.4 is a good lens, why did you say its one of the worst?
Optically its decent. Its AF is known to be terrible. That was my experience. Hope you had a better one!
None of those, I will choose Sony 35mm 1.8 or Sony Zeiss Sonnar 55mm 1.8
Ual! Excelente vídeo! 😃👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think i would choose Samyang lens. :)
My Samyang AF 45mm F1.8 FE is very loud and horrible in autofocus.
I think samyangs pics looks much better
Both are so small that size does not matter at all.
Thanks for the comparison
