I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to get in touch with Samyang in the U.S. for service. My 10mm has been getting increasingly de-centered since I got it less than a year ago and it's beginning to have a significant and negative effect on image quality. Does anyone have any experience with getting lens service for Samyang lenses in the U.S.?

When I got a decentered Samyang 14mm, I had it replaced. I insisted on replacement and not repair. I had to say that the lens already came with a fault; not that it developed a fault. Not sure how this works where you live or where you bought it, but I would suggest you try taking it back to the store or at least contacting the store and have them pester Samyang as well

Hope things work out, the 10mm seems like a cool lens. That said, at that focal length, it doesn't take much to make the image decentered

I bought it from Amazon. I'm not sure how much they'll go to bat for me on this, but it's worth a shot!
