Second-hand product inspected by Camera Market. Includes a standard 6-month warranty and 24-48h shipping from Barcelona.
Does this lens have autofocus?
No, the Samyang 50mm f/1.4 AS UMC is a manual focus lens. This means you will need to adjust focus by turning the lens ring, which can be an advantage for static photography or video where precise control is desired.
Is it compatible with my Canon camera?
This lens uses the Canon EF mount, so it is compatible with Canon cameras with EF mount (full-frame and APS-C). If your camera has an EF-S mount, you can also use it, although the field of view will be equivalent to 80mm in full-frame format.
What type of photography can I do with this lens?
Thanks to its 50mm focal length and f/1.4 aperture, it is excellent for portraits, street photography, low-light photography, and achieving a smooth bokeh effect. It is also suitable for product or detail photography.
Does the lens include image stabilization?
No, this lens does not incorporate image stabilization. To avoid blurry photos, it is recommended to use an appropriate shutter speed or a tripod, especially in low-light situations.
