Save your hard earned money and go for the Samyang 14mm/2.8 lenses.
Just beautiful images with my ATG Canon EOS-1D C and ATG Canon EOS-1D X IR cameras.
First, Japan built & made better cars than Germany.
Now, Korea has surpassed Japan in cars and TVs.
In photography, think Samyang.
In TV, think Samsung.
In autos, think Hyundai.
Aside from the “Made in Japan”; The one made in Germany will cost about 100% more, zeiss said the quality is the same. QA equipment is the same they use in Germany and its made in Germany.
I bought a Canon EOS-1 DS and a Carl Zeiss Distagon 15mm…It was the most well spent money in my life…I’m thrilled, the feeling and optical quality are beyond reproach, the images stunning…and I’m noticing an increase in muscle-mass due to proportional weight…No complains!!!
When I look for Zeiss Lenses, how will I be able to know which are made in Japan, and which are made in Germany?

No, only Nikon lens on Canon Body….
Best regards

yes, they really show off these Japanese made lenses.
I love my Zeiss lenses!
I have a question though: As I am thinking about switching from a 5D mk ii Canon to a d800e Nikon, is it possible to have my “Zeiss for Canon” lenses retrofitted with a mount for Nikon?
Yours sincerely

Zeiss is a damn fine lensmaker. I want one of these so bad. My boyfriend is getting me the Canon EOS 5d Mark II and asked what lens I need. I want this one… but I don’t want to take advantage of him, I love him… no Canon lens will be comparable, but as a good woman I’m going to direct him to a Canon version for now. The Zeiss will remain in my dreams… and as soon as I can buy my own, I am buying this baby
Ha ha, yeah right – I’m buying ME one first
Nice lens, but is this worthy of price?
Are there no ND filters just Pol?
can you spend me one?
I truly thought he gonna drop that lens when is unbox
i trust hipster germans
HM. not for sony ? 🙁
6 people are Samyang fun
Regalenme uno!!!!
It’s really funny how “much” people here who write all these rather weird comments know about lenses. Of course you can change the aperture. With a focal length of just 15mm you’re gonna have a very big DOF anyway, even at f2.8. Do your homework kiddos!
Agreed
The stop goes down to 22! Not sure how much DOF you could possibly need. The example photos were taken at the 2.8 stop. If the lens were set to the 22 f-stop, then over 60% of the image would have been in field! You could easily do indoor daylight with 200iso 35mm fuji, and a 40 shutter speed.
did he just throw the lens cap away?
Stopping it down would be a possible solution perhaps? After all, you don’t usually buy a super wide angle lens to achieve shallow DOF.
the only thing which stays plastic is the lens cap and the packaging, and we dont need that~
A small mistake, 0.25m is 250 millimeters! 😛
someone can help me to create an event in my ipad 3 by iphoto… pleaseeeee =(
I dig it but I’m not a photographer and would likely only use it for the Journal aspect.
its been a while since ive ben genuinely blown away by an app
That just blew me away!!
If you guys wanna see some iPhoto amateur examples go on my instagram… @brazilhero
Am I the only one with more then 32gb of photos?
Hi guys, I’m using the Paper app on iPad for a few days. Now I’ve made a twitter account to post my drawings, sketches and logos on that I’ve made when I got a few followers I will start uploading drawings. Please follow me, @pinepomme ,I hope you’ll enjoy it ! Thank you !
now it its…
Excellent presentation. Well done.
AMAAAAAAAAZING!
Is it as dumb as the original photo app of the iPad, wipe out your photo file names and rearrange them like counting numbers 1,2,3,4…….?
really,really easy..
This is pissing me off. Notice he’s not doing multiple edits on same photo? It’s very hard to switch tools without the image reverting back to the prior edit/effect. Can anyone enlighten me?

This is amazing!
Ya some Apple fanboy is really…well=.= Just ignore will do. If i did harsh and rude, i apologize for that too, may the best product own !
its not that i hate apple and angry at you, some of this apple fanboy makes me feels like…huh u know what i meant. Im not an aggressive person actually, i typed like im yelling but actually no, haha!. Peace! and forgive me for all those rude words : / . May the best product win. 😀
So u see, i am actually a bit on Apple, but what i hope is fans dun insult the other brand’s product. Lots my friends using S2 too and i wont always tell them the bad side of S2, because S2 got their best side, and Apple did have some bad side. I wont always so harsh and reply such long with a stranger, but you are kind of too aggressive don’t u? Peace dude, its competition among Apple and Samsung/Sony and so on, not among us(users). We benefit from their fights as we get the improved product !!
yeah i agree, galaxy tab is bad though :/ and i think that apple should focus more for tablet..
Ya many ppl said Ipad3 is stupid, yet the sales for first day is 300 million unit. So the best andriod seller S2 used 8 month for 80 million unit. What i wanna say is, its not like people will switch their preference when u tell them iphone sucks at blah blah blah, iphone dun have blah blah blah. Ask android to come out something that will let ppl think “WOAH ! mayb i should change to Andriod.” New ipad is just an ipad 2S, but galaxy tab is bad, the best andriod tablet will be ASUS transformer.
don’t be mad :). Okay, so can you search and open the apps that you want in situation that you cant use your fucking hand and eye to look at your device?? STUPID DICKHEAD! think first before u rep.. faggot :)
Wait and see noob 🙂 even many people said Ipad 3 is just stupid. THE NEW IPAD? THEY ONLY UPGRADE THE DISPLAY?? THE FUCK?? woaah, apple is clearly growing fast man. See how sony and htc phones works. Now HTC one x and SONY xperia s are one of the most fastest and better display for smartphones. Say wtv ever you want dickhead 🙂 does iphone have NFC????????????
I pretty sure u just used iphone before, but never owned one. Or mayb you just read something and act like pro, like u did in last few comment. Apple is amazing, but Andriod is very good also, no one is better than the other. Fanboy like you keep insult other brand product will just make ppl dislike Andriod. Grow up kid.
Blind? i did reply with this idiot “And ya idiot, i know Speaktoit Assistant better than u as i used it before. That shit barely understand wtf i am asking and i will say Iris or Voice action is way better than that, yet still not intelligent enough even though is faster.”
okay whatever shit, but u started it. i just commented the video and then u busy body. Why u always changed topic?? everytime i said go and search “speaktoit” u rep about something else.. cannot accept the fact?? 🙂 yeah i know. fyi, i used to have an Iphone before, if not how come i know all about iphones
