Any issues in particular that I need to look for in these Samyang lenses. I think I have one week to swap them in case of any issues.
My few cents..
1. Check for decentering (my copy as good, but there are quite a few reported cases)
2. The infinity mark can be off, though imo, its not a big deal as I focus my magnified LV and remember what marking correlates with infinity
3. It may take f11 to get sharpness all the way to the corners, so don't be afraid to use f11.
4. LR has the profile for Samyang lenses, so that will help for distortion (which this lens has quite a bit)
Its a very good lens for the price.
The distortion is a non-issue in most cases (esp for natural landscapes) and can generally be taken care of by a lens correction profile.
