Originally posted by boriscleto The reviews on Amazon would seem to indicate otherwise.
On the reviews on Amazon, they are mixed, meaning a ton of other people are posting reviews of the item from different mounts all together, and also you will see "I Have The XXXX Branded One" which is the same.
The KA and K is correct when samyang manufactures these. When I bought the Samyang FE, it was the same way. The Rokinon branded one and the other brands that cost above it had the "A" setting, the lower priced ones did not.
Originally posted by Lowell Goudge referring to the KA mount, there were several threads when this lens first cam out that it was available in both K and KA mount. I know the vivitar is KA mount, I have had one for 2 years now,
All I am advising is Make Sure.
How do you like it thus far? I am planning on purchasing the Vivitar one only because I like the Vivitar name and if I am not mistaken the focus ring is slightly different on this version of it.
I would love to hear some stuff on the performance of this!!!!!!!
EDIT: Btw, for budget glass, Samyang glass is my first choice, the FE sold me on them! As a matter of fact, I would even choose a Samyang MF lens over a Sigma MF lens if they met the same specs - unfortunately, Samyang doesn't manufacture autofocus lenses (at least none that I have seen)...
