Love the fact that at 7:40 you 'walked with the camera like this', and the result after 'adding warp stabilisation effect in post' is turning an indoor shot into an outdoor shot!!! :D :D :D
My dad is an architect and he's been wanting me to shoot the houses he made for a portfolio but couldn't do it without a wide angle lens! Thank you for this!
+Rodrigo Vazquez Good Day Rodrigo, I will have to agree with you, and say that it is certainly welcomed and beats all those that come on the 'youtube' site only to swear, curse, and act vulgar, just to get their rocks off!! Yes Andyax is cheerfully entertaining, and a well needed change. Have a wonderful day and GOD Bless you!!! SuperSniperSal
Maybe already been mentioned but this lens require a matte box for ND filters since, due to construction, it lacks filter threads. As seen in video, Andyax got flicker from a light source because he couldn't stop at 180 degrees (1/50) @ 25p or similar in a 50Hz power network. Also, since you can't get correct motion blur, be prepared to get choppy movies. So, think twice before getting this lens for video. There's a 10mm as well as a 16mm.
This is EXACTLY the type of video/lens I was looking for! I'm a GH series user and have been looking for a wider option than the Sigma 18-35. Thank you!!!
I've got the Nikon mount and couldn't be happier. It's sharper than ANY other lens on the market in the 14-16mm range. However, it does distort more than other wide angles but this is easily fixed by the click of a button. I'd take sharpness over distortion anyday. It's a steal, buy one!
Amazing video, I don't use Film-making at all I'm my daily life, not even in college, but learning about from your videos is a god send. I can't wait to try this out for myself one day.
Everything that you do is so great in quality and so beautiful Anders, your tutorials are always the best and it's always very enjoyable to watch. 10/10
Love Bror Svensson: You have turned off the reply button, so I can't reply, but I'll write here instead. Yes I've heard about the new speedbooster. It's really exciting! :) but it's so typical that they told about the new version, just after I got mine :P
I understand that a speedbooster allows you to have a faster shutter speed, but isn't that a secondary effect from the device altering the aperture size? Shouldn't it be called "aperturebooster" or something similar? I might be completely wrong though, I'm just learning this stuff.
+Andyax this really helped me make a decision on my next lens, I have a black magic cinema cam and the crop sensor can be somewhat hindering in the wide angle arena but this is a great solution for the price and quality
This is the lens: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/859167-REG/Samyang_SY14M_C_14mm_f_2_8_Super_Wide.html/BI/20363/KBID/15164/kw/SA1428C/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xSA1428C
what is the difference between 14mm f2.8 non AE and AE lens? After doin some research it said that non AE lens the camera cant adjust the f-stop while AE lens can change the f-stop. Is there any difference? since the price tag is very huge.
You are an exellent instructor man thank you, easy to understand and always straight to the point, simple and clear examples, thank you again you make me dare and do what I always wanted to do all these years.
Beautiful footage and fantastic walk through. Thank you for creating such an easy to watch video. Will be ordering this lens soon for my Nikon D800 to film car interiors
Really great video, but remember when recording 4k on the GH4, it crops the image 2.3 times, becaurse it doesn't take the entire sensors view and down-scaling, it just takes a 4k image straight out of the 16mp sensor. If you understand. Its a 1:1 pixel ratio
Since I just started out with budget with a Panasonic G6 camera without a speedbooster, my solution to wide angle is the Rokinon 12mm f2.0 which gives me 24mm(35mm equilvalent) of field.
Yaaaay, I'm so glad i saw your video on my subscription feed +Andyax Oh and also i just wanted to say thanks for the advise on the panasonic GH4, i'm definitely going to buy that soon. Anyways keep up the amazing work you do, can't wait for another amazing video :D
Yasin Balooshi And I'm glad I saw your comment! Thank you so much. One of the next videos will be a short film. It's a while since the last one :) Good luck with all your film projects!
hello .. I dot know abt lens but the set ups..location and house...everything else is looking so good..i really loved the environment you are shooting this vdo...amazing....man !
Andyax, Thanks for your video. I'v been wondering about this lens for some time now and as you mentioned, some come out great, some are not. Regardless of this issue, you helped me make a decision and get it. Thanks.
Great review! I just got my GH4, and since the crop is 0.4 times more than in my gh2 my old 14-42mm lens isn't that wide anymore, so i might consider investing in a speedbooster and the lens youre showing there!
If anyone could answer this question it'd be much appreciated. I'm going to be starting youtube soon, currently I'm saving up for the 5d mark ii, a big part of that is the fact it was such an important camera when it comes to video. I want a camera that can handle low light when used with a good lens, I plan to use it in all weather, freezing cold, snow, rain, etc. I plan to get the 14mm for either the 5d or G7. But currently I can't decide between the 2 cameras. I also plan to do some photography in all weather, and a good amount at night.
I've got a 5d mk3 and it's good for filming other subjects but not great at all doing selfie videos such as vlogs. You will want to get yourself a monitor of some description because screen at the back does not articulate. Therefore if you are doing shots from some height above your head or below your knees it's hard to gauge what you are shooting. It's heavy especially if you put some heavy lens on as well. Slow motion is basically non existent, however it does shoot RAW with help of magic lantern. if you need one or two shots in raw, it is perfect! I use G7X point and shoot for my channel, and use canon 5dmk3 for secondary shots (b roll) and it works like a treat. Also shot some short films with it and the image quality is absolutely fantastic. It really just depends what you want to use it for. Final Project Quality = 50% Camera&Lens + 50%Post Processing If you are starting out, consider getting a lower end camera, and a two to three day course in editing, colour grading etc. Good luck! P.s. I don't have G7 so can't comment on that. :-)
Nice vid! Regarding the focus ring - there's a T3.1 / cine version of this lens with same optics but a geared focus and aperture ring, that might suit a videographer better. As for stills, the long focus throw is not a downside because it helps to focus accurately and when shooting e.g. landscapes you've got enough time to focus
All Samyang f/2.8 14mm lenses needs focus calibration. I do not know why they make them like that. The actual infinite focus does not matches the end of the focus ring, and it is somewhere between 2 and 3 m if you want sharpest image.
Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 would have been awesome since it has capacity to take ND filters when filming outdoors plus its razor sharp and would have been perfect addition to your kit
Thank you for the review. I am thinking of having this lens being sold as second hand. Glad you showed how it performs from a Canon cropped sensor. I will be using this on my 50D.
Hej. Siden du er nordmand, vælger jeg at skrive på dansk istedet for engelsk. :) Jeg undrer mig over hvorfor du valgte fotoversionen (14mm f/2.8) og ikke cine versionen (14mm t/3.1)? Var det et bevidst valg? Hvis jeg ikke tager fejl, så er de kun mekanisk forskellige. Cine versionen har bedre fokusring og aperture ringen er "de-clicked", så man kan kontinuert ændre aperture mens man filmer.
That's great Andy. It's definitely a good lens for the price. Even though it's not as good as the canon but it is more or less 1/4 of the price. What I usually go for is that if it does 80% of the job for 20% of the price, then that's a good deal. :)
I have the exact same slider, I use it a lot. But to keep it fluent in movement I spray it every use beforehand with WD40 and rub Vaseline on the rail itself.
there was a declicked version of this available, no? Why didn't you buy that one, given that you will be using it for video? Great vid though... thanks.
Hi Andy, really thanks for your review of this lens. i have some question, 1. how did u attach the filter holder to the lens? 2. Will the speedbooster work on ff camera? thanks for answering!! keep on good job!
why not get the cine lens version of the rokinon 14mm (CV14M-C)? t3.1 is virtually the same as f2.8, especially if they are both manual focus (all cine lenses are) and main use will be film, not photos..
Oh, I need your help once again. Should I go for Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 or Samyang 14mm f/2.8 + Canon 35mm IS f/2? Both combinations will be with Metabones Speedbooster.
Hi @Andyax one question: Are you using the CANON version of the metabones speedbooster? I'm a little bit confused if a manual lens can be used on the canon speedbooster version? Or do you use the Nikon version of the SB and your Sigma 18-35 1.8 is also a nikon lens? Thank you!
Hi Andy ! I have a question about Wide Angle Lens and the DEC adapter. How can be the 10-22mm (EF modified) wide with. What can be the equivalent in therm of mm ? I'm waiting for the DEC Pro but i must buy an adapter shortly... Thx in advance and thanks for your videos !
Hi Andy, great video as usual! I'm wondering, what's the the difference between the Rokinon 14mm for M3/4 and Canon EF? The speedbooster makes the EF version faster, but I don't have speedbooster so I have to factor the price of it as well. Also, have you tried Tokina 11-16mm on the speedbooster compare to the Rokinon 14mm? Thanks!
This is the best review ive watched of this lens, finally my questions are answered! I'm thinking to buy this for landscape/city photography since i'm going to london and nyc this year. Would you recommend this also for photography?
Andyax you are the man! New favorite youtube channel by far; was wondering your honest opinion I have a T3i and 50mm 1.8 will possibly upgrade camera in the future. I bought a Glidecam and am thinking that the 14mm would be great. But I cannot make up my mind if its the right choice or if I should get something like a 18-35mm or 10-22mm other than the 14mm that gives me range. Just wanted to have your opinion as I feel many people have when starting out buying lenses. Thanks for your time and expertise.
Hey bro.. The video looks stunning. Thanks for sharing the information. I wanted to know which picture profile did you use and where can I download it.
Thanks Andy - great info. Do you use the Speedbooster only to get the extra wide shots? I'm thinking of getting this lens for internal shots. I'm just wonder if I really do need the Speed Booster too or will this lens fit the gh4 without the booster? Cheers - Mike
Hey Andy, thanks for this video. I understand that Samyang also make these lenses with the MFT mount. However, if I want to use a metabooster do I then need to buy the Canon EF mount version of the lens? Or is there another metabones speedbooster for MFT to MFT? Thanks!
how did you attach the samyang lens on the gh4 without the speedbooster, for that comparison shot around the 5 minute mark in the video? I'm assuming you got one in F or EF mount so you could use the speedbooster?
Anders (or anyone with experience), I have a similar camera setup as you, mainly with the GH4 and speedbooster, and I've noticed that the GH4 doesn't seem to show a reading for F number when the speedbooster is being used, with any lens. I was wondering if this is just an issue I'm having, or if it's the same for everyone as well?
Love this review, very informative. Do you recommend this lens for real estate photography taking photos of interior rooms for magazines? Just wondering how wide I would need to go without the fish eye effect to get good quality pictures.
Hi Andy.. As usual your videos are awesome and informative. Thanks for making these videos. I have a question and i'd be glad if you can answer this. Is there a way to use ND filter on this lens so as to be able to shoot on f2.8 and maintain field of depth in bright light? Also, how do you maintain the field of depth in videos in this lens given you are shooting on 1/50th shutter speed at 24fps or 1/60 for 30fps.. And so on.?

3 years old and still an amazing review!

You are one of my favourite youtubers.. keep it Up bro!
14mm was Stanley Kubricks favourite lens as said by Steven Spielberg!
14mm on a super 35 sensor is more like 20mm because of the crop factor. Sill an interesting fact though.
*Bruh... everytime I watch one of your videos I end up buying it.. lmao. They should pay you for this advertisement...*
Beautiful footage and fantastic walk through. Thank you for creating such an easy to watch video. Will be ordering this lens soon for my Nikon D800 to film car interiors
hi Andyax... I just want to say a big thank you to you. Your videos have been very helpful
The Norwegian stereotype of cabins just gets confirmed and confirmed... over and over! xD

Worth mentioning that you can also get this lens in the Cinema line, with declicked aperture ring and follow focus gears on the lens itself :)

Wow! I even thought those were toys you were filming. Cool lens
Herlig video Anders! Super kvalitet på videoene dine, og veldig hjelpsom video! :)
I went with Sigma 10-20mm. It's about the same price as the Samyang here in Canada and it does a job good.
I just bought this lens today! Thank you for the in depth review.

Mr Hipster Josh but hopefully you don't want anything slow motion because the 5d doesn't shoot 60fps in hd
I've got a 5d mk3 and it's good for filming other subjects but not great at all doing selfie videos such as vlogs. You will want to get yourself a monitor of some description because screen at the back does not articulate. Therefore if you are doing shots from some height above your head or below your knees it's hard to gauge what you are shooting. It's heavy especially if you put some heavy lens on as well.

I'm not into videos but i must say your videos was helpful and i enjoyed your shots.. Keep it up.
Definitely going on my wish list. great review.
Great video...learning a lot from your vids :) subscribed

Great video, love your directions and angles
Thank you for the review. I am thinking of having this lens being sold as second hand. Glad you showed how it performs from a Canon cropped sensor. I will be using this on my 50D.
Thanks for the video man. This helped me make my decision on which lens to buy.
I found a lens correction profile to add to LightRoom and it takes care of the distortion issues quite well

Man, what a quality review
This was a very good video. Informative, and well produced. Thank You
Hi Andy, really thanks for your review of this lens. i have some question, 1. how did u attach the filter holder to the lens? 2. Will the speedbooster work on ff camera? thanks for answering!! keep on good job!
why not get the cine lens version of the rokinon 14mm (CV14M-C)? t3.1 is virtually the same as f2.8, especially if they are both manual focus (all cine lenses are) and main use will be film, not photos..
Will this cover a full frame like 5d MK3 with no distortion?
Oh, I need your help once again. Should I go for Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 or Samyang 14mm f/2.8 + Canon 35mm IS f/2? Both combinations will be with Metabones Speedbooster.
Hi @Andyax one question: Are you using the CANON version of the metabones speedbooster? I'm a little bit confused if a manual lens can be used on the canon speedbooster version? Or do you use the Nikon version of the SB and your Sigma 18-35 1.8 is also a nikon lens? Thank you!
beautiful review man! kudos!
Hi Andy !
I have a question about Wide Angle Lens and the DEC adapter.
How can be the 10-22mm (EF modified) wide with.
What can be the equivalent in therm of mm ?
I'm waiting for the DEC Pro but i must buy an adapter shortly...
Thx in advance and thanks for your videos !
Do you think the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 will be a better lens? I just bough a GH4 and Speedbooster. Thanks!
I have the tokina 11-16 2.8 and I love it. The sharpness is unreal!
Hi Andy, great video as usual! I'm wondering, what's the the difference between the Rokinon 14mm for M3/4 and Canon EF? The speedbooster makes the EF version faster, but I don't have speedbooster so I have to factor the price of it as well. Also, have you tried Tokina 11-16mm on the speedbooster compare to the Rokinon 14mm? Thanks!
Love the video! Helped me out a lot! Lots of love from Dubai! :)
Just stumbled upon this tonight, great informative video! Just curious, what’s your camera setup now, 6 years later?
This is the best review ive watched of this lens, finally my questions are answered!
I'm thinking to buy this for landscape/city photography since i'm going to london and nyc this year.
Would you recommend this also for photography?

Cheers - Mike
Nice Video and very informative... Thank you for this
Why not get the samyang 10mm 2.8 then use the speed booster with that? You could get even wider!
I was just looking at this lens, thanks for the review!
Hey Andy, thanks for this video. I understand that Samyang also make these lenses with the MFT mount. However, if I want to use a metabooster do I then need to buy the Canon EF mount version of the lens? Or is there another metabones speedbooster for MFT to MFT? Thanks!
Andy have you seen the new XL speedbooster which magnifices by 0.64 insted 0.71, gives more wide angle, shallow dof and light.
how did you attach the samyang lens on the gh4 without the speedbooster, for that comparison shot around the 5 minute mark in the video? I'm assuming you got one in F or EF mount so you could use the speedbooster?
You are really talented and would like to see how you color grade your video and what plugins do you use. Thanks,
Anders (or anyone with experience), I have a similar camera setup as you, mainly with the GH4 and speedbooster, and I've noticed that the GH4 doesn't seem to show a reading for F number when the speedbooster is being used, with any lens.

Great video! Did you use the Optics Compensation in all images for the promotional video? Thank you.
Cool channel. That what I long sought.
All simple and clear.
For authors this channel Respect!
this was so beautiful and informative, thank you!
I love it Andy, what was the light you had on set?
You have the best videos on the net. You have my support! Keep it up! How can i get in contact with you?
Just wondering - why not Samyang 10mm 2.8? I used it on my Olympus em1 with a focal reducer, it was a pretty decent lens imo.
Don't they have a cinema version? Cinema version is better zoom and stepless aperture ring
Hi Andy.. As usual your videos are awesome and informative. Thanks for making these videos.
I have a question and i'd be glad if you can answer this.
Is there a way to use ND filter on this lens so as to be able to shoot on f2.8 and maintain field of depth in bright light?
Also, how do you maintain the field of depth in videos in this lens given you are shooting on 1/50th shutter speed at 24fps or 1/60 for 30fps.. And so on.?
