nice review and cracking images Alan. the stairwell shot is a real winner - superb work. I had a Samyang 12mm f2 when I bought my Fujifilm X-T20 and found it a superb lens. Really well built, flawless operation and excellent IQ. I think you'll be very happy with it mate :-)
A really enjoyed that review Alan, I had been thinking of getting a super wide lens and you certainly gave me food for thought, I like listening to your relaxed delivery style although the louder high speed sound effect as you changed to the outdoors near the end made me jump, I was wearing 😀 headphones... keep up the good work.
Looks like you can make that Samyang lens work quite nicely Alan. The images at 10:04 and 12:30 were impressive! The widest lens I have is only 35mm, I may invest in a 24mm soon. I’m looking forward to your Affinity Photo 2 video as I too have invested in the software. 👍🏻💜👍🏻
Thanks TC, it's early days with AP2 software and although I was disappointed to see existing users unable to get a discount, I figured that for £35 launch price I couldn't really complain!
What, I didn’t win the giveaway? this contest was rigged, Dexter is going to hear from me. Always nice to see you señor Alan Cartier-Bresson (I really like the image at 10:05, great capture). Not too long ago I got the Rokinon 12mm for the Fuji X-T4 and it really works flawlessly, but just like you, I don’t use it very often, but it’s good to have in the camera bag just in case. I’m very interested in your opinion of the new version of Affinity Photo to see if the upgrade would give me significant benefits over the original version that I currently use, I’m looking forward to the “video/tutorial/review”. Be well and stay safe.
Well Peter, I have quite a lot to get through between now and Christmas and some of it depends on the weather, and some of it depends on the post. There will be an introduction to my new (to me) camera at the latest in 2 weeks time provided I can get some shooting done with it.
😅Hi Alan new subscriber here thanks for the review I now shoot Olympus OMD EM1 MK3 and this would be a great purchase for ultra wide which we all need now and again
