Samyang's AF sucks for video, so Canon all the way.

I don't really shoot much video but this is still a bummer. Will have to wait for more reviews. Thanks for the heads up.:-)

I think it would be wise to wait for more reviews, and read/look at some more on the Samyang as ntsan comes out with a big statement here but neglects to give any reasons for that statement, which usually indicates something suspect.
