I have the same issue with IBIS here; glad to know that I’m not the only one!

I have two other major issues with the lens

  1. Startup speed of the xs10 is slower with the Samyang attached. Around 1 to 1.5 secs slower.
  2. When images are selected for transfer to phone, switch the camera off. Transfer begins. Before it completes, switch the camera on again. The transfer queue just disappears! Take off the lens or use another XF lens, the queue reappears.

I’m also very shocked that reviewers (like those on YouTube) never noticed these rather glaring issues.

Why - they were YouTube reviewers.  They made their money when you clicked their link.
