Experience with Samyang/Rokinon/Bower 12mm/F2 prime?

I've Searched, but...

Anyone have experience with the Samyang/Rokinon/Bower 12mm/F2 lens?  I'm considering the NX1 and believe that the 12-24 zoom will not be up to the image-quality standards of the rest of the camera.

I had an NX20 with 3 Samsung lenses a few years ago and enjoyed it all for a while, but it turned out to be too small for my hands--as did a Sony a7R this spring.  Am currently enjoying a Sony a99, but it and the big F2.8 Zeiss wide and mid zooms are rather heavy, and as I get older (I'm 70), that becomes more important.
