Samyang 20mm f/1.8 ED AS UMC Canon EF
Canon EF, full sizeCurrently out of stock
Product details
The open aperture of F1.8 makes the Samyang 20mm full-frame lens the ideal companion for astrophotography and landscape photography and enables good results even in low light conditions. Furthermore, the
Samyang 20mm F1.8 ED AS UMC impresses with its cropping qualities. The object in focus is skilfully set in scene, while (at open aperture) the background is immersed in a wonderfully soft bokeh. The perfect complement between 16mm and 24mm. Because this wide-angle lens for full format is not only suitable for shooting indoors, but also for concerts, landscape and street photography. Due to years of expertise in lens construction, the development of a 20mm full-frame lens was only a matter of time.
The Samyang 20mm F1.8 ED AS UMC is equipped with the best optical technology Samyang has to offer. The wide-angle lens is coated with the typical Samyang Ultra Multi Coating. The combination of coating, the two aspherical glass elements and the three "extra-low dispersion glasses" reduces chromatic aberrations to a minimum and prevents unsightly light scattering. The glass construction consists of 13 glass elements divided into 12 groups and ensures sharp images from the centre of the image to the edge. 7 aperture blades create an almost circular bokeh when the aperture is open, while closing the aperture reveals crystal clear, star-shaped highlights. The lens is compact and robustly built, making it an ideal companion even when things get a little rough.

Das lichtstarke 20er haben wir an zwei APS-C-Kameras von Canon und Nikon gemessen. Es kostet ohne AF 450 Euro. Offen fehlt an beiden Kameras bereits in der Bildmitte Kontrast. Bei Blende 3,5 ist die Abbildungsleistung in der Bildmitte sehr gut und bei Blende 5,6 moderat niedriger...
