AstroArt Special testing

You can get Samyang lenses tested on a test bench from us. This will include a test report. All bad individuals are eliminated from the crowd. This lens already draws reasonably well from a full aperture and F2.8 already gets really good drawing at the edges as well. It is a good idea to dimming the lens in front of the optics. Using filter thread step-down rings. As an add-on, you can buy step-down rings to 52mm. With that ring the lens speed is approx. F2.7. Great results are already being achieved at this speed.
