The Samyang VDSLR 24mm T1.5 MK2 for Canon RF offers fast wide-angle cinema performance on Canon EOS R full-frame cameras at an accessible price compared to Canon Cine lenses. The T1.5 aperture enables significant depth-of-field separation and low-light performance. The de-clicked aperture is essential for smooth in-shot exposure adjustments.
Check aperture ring is fully de-clicked. Test focus ring gear compatibility. Inspect for haze, fungus, and coating condition. Confirm Canon RF mount engagement and electronic communication if any. The MK2 version should have improved corner sharpness over MK1 — verify the generation is correct.
