The Samyang 12mm f/2.8 ED AS NCS Fisheye is a full-frame diagonal fisheye providing 180 degrees of corner-to-corner coverage. The f/2.8 aperture is fast for a fisheye — useful for astrophotography and low-light creative work.
Optically good for a fisheye — sharp in the centre with the intentional extreme barrel distortion. ED glass and NCS nano coating reduce chromatic aberration and flare. The f/2.8 is fast for fisheye — useful for night sky all-sky captures.
Available for Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony FE, and other mounts. Bulbous front element — no standard filter thread. Manual focus — the massive DOF makes focus uncritical. Approximately 500g. Full-frame 180° diagonal coverage.
Available used at budget to mid-range prices. Also sold as Rokinon 12mm f/2.8 Fisheye. The 180° diagonal fills the full frame — practical for creative, VR, and astrophotography. For creative and astro all-sky photographers.
