Samyang 24mm f/1.4 AE with Fixed Mount Lens - Nikon Mount

This Samyang 24mm f/1.4 AE with Fixed Mount Lens For Nikon Mount features an electronic circuit which allows for full control of exposure parameters accessible from the Nikon camera including i-TTL flash communication and EXIF data compatible with all Nikon Digital SLR cameras. Featuring a fast bright f1.4 aperture the Samyang 24 mm f1.4 is designed for Full Frame (FX) Nikon DSLRs (such as the D3x D800 and D700) and DX Nikon cameras (such as the D7000 D5100 D3100 D90 D3000 etc). On full-frame Nikon cameras it constitutes a high-quality wide-angle lens perfect for street landscape and architecture shooting or low light / night and street photography. The fast f/1.4 aperture is able to give a narrow depth of field when required. It provides an exceptional bokeh (the character of out-of-focus areas) due to its design and fast aperture and usually only attainable by much more expensive glass. Photographers using Nikon APS-C / DX sized (cropped) sensors sensors will get approx 36mm equivalent field of view (due to the 1.5x crop factor) making it suitable for journalist and general photography. This is fixed focal length (prime) lens equipped with manual focus. The manual focus ring is wide easily accessible and perfectly adapted to most photographic applications except applications such as sports or where Autofocus lenses would be better considered. For film and video applications manual focus is often the preferred choice allowing changing focusing during filming and here are increasing numbers of users using DSLRs for filming and High Definition (HD) video. This lens has a standard coupled aperture adjustable in 1 stop (1 EV) intervals. Accurate focus at very close distance or focus critical situations can be achieved through use of focusing in live view mode available to most newer camera models. Optical construction of the Samyang 24mm lens features 13 lenses arranged in 12 groups 4 lenses are low-dispersion glass (ED) plus two aspheric elements. The 24mm features UMC - Ultra Multi Coated lenses for the best possible light transmission and resistance to ghosting and flares. The Samyang 24 mm F1.4 ED AS UMC lens offers a professional wide angle prime lens with excellent optics yet still manages to deliver significant value for money.
