|
ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | I own a ZA 24 2.0 and use it with the LA-EA3. The ZA 24 2.0 is a high performer, the Batis 18 2.8 has better corner performance at same f numbers |
price paid: | 1200€ |
positive: | Extreme sharp, not heavy, silet AF, no CA Best wide-angle lens currently available for A7rIII Protection against dust and spray water Lens is very well centered and shows no difference in corner performance (is quite rare for a uwa lens). |
negative: | less vignetting wide open would be nice |
comment: | I was searching quite long for an ultra-wide lens for night sky photography. I tested Samyang 16 2.4 for Canon with Sigma adapter, the Sigma Art 14 f1.8 and the Sony mount Samyang 14 2.8 AF |
