I used to have a Samyang 12mm and I loved it, but it was stolen together with $9K gear out of a car while I went to grab a coffee. When I replaced all my Samsung gear I went for the slower 12-24mm because I like the additional focal ranges and the autofocus is useful as well.

Both lenses are great lenses and if I find the Samyang with NX mount somewhere for a good deal I'd get it in a heartbeat.

I'm sorry to hear that and I hope that you had some insurance on that gear.

The Samyang 12mm is a an amazing lens but I do wish that it has better flare control and atleast another aperture blade for star/light burst effects.  Guess there has to some drawbacks at that price for a fast and sharp lens.

I have a nagging feeling that my copy is decentred as well.
