[f/16] Images from this lens look outstanding. The sharpness wide open is very respectable, and you be hard-pressed to complain about it from f/2.8f/8. There is some color fringing in high contrast areas, but still very well controlled. Shooting plenty of video, I have noticed that there is slight focus breathing on the lens, but its only apparent if you rack focus from infinity to a close subject quickly vice versa. Build quality is solid. Using the focus/ aperture rings are a pleasure and I'm a huge fan of the look of that metallic red ring :P infinity focus is not at the hard stop but thats not an issue for me. The lens fits snuggly on my a6500. The only complaint would be that the lens hood and rear lens cap are pretty loose.

[APS-C] This really is an amazing product. Extremely sharp, even wide open and capable of some really artistic shots. The sun stars it creates are beautiful and the light turns buttery soft as it's opened up. Astrophotography is crisp edge to edge at f1.2 with very little vignetting, coma, or astigmatism issues! Overall a stout performer regardless of your intentions. Be wary if you don't have a steady hand and watch your shutter speed to avoid shaky images since it doesn't have any stabilization. But, for the price and the speed it's worth the sacrafice.

[f/1.2] The Rokinon 50 1.2 surprised with top-notch performance wide open, little chromatic aberrations and no vignetting. It's the best performing 50mm I have used on the a6300 so far. If you can deal with the lack of AF go for it! Manuel focus feels smooth and built quality is excellent.

[5 x 4.8 x 4.75"] I use this lens with a Sony alpha 6000. The Lens is incredibly sharp, with little to no barrel distortion or chromatic aberrations. It is a prime lens, and it does not connect electronically to the camera -- this means manual focus only and no EXIF information stored on the shots as to the lens and aperture used. If this is OK with you (it is with me), then this is a great lens. I now use only Rokinon / Samyang prime lenses in addition to the 55-210mm Sony zoom lens for wildlife shots with the a6000. Some people have noted that there should be a distance scale to help with estimating the deapth of field, but after having had the lens for a while you will develop a good intuition for this anyway. One thing that could be an issue some months / heavy usage down the line: f numbers and focusing distances are painted not etched into the lens, so they could wear off after a while I guess.

[5 x 4.8 x 4.75"] Love this lens. It's small, light, and produces a beautiful image. Glad I purchased it! :)

[9, Rounded] I bought the Voigtlander Nokton 23mm f/1.2 to use on my Fujifilm X-Pro3 and I was sold. I liked it so much that as soon as the 35mm was back in stock, I ordered it, and I love it, too. I am really enjoying using manual focus and the rendering from both lenses is very appealing to my eye. The build quality of these lenses is first rate. I think they're worth every penny. Don't get me wrong, the Fujifilm lenses are wonderful, but the Voigtlanders are fantastic as well. If Voigtlander comes out with more X-mount lenses, I'm buying them.

[9, Rounded] I've seen a review of this lens that states it's sharper than Fujifilms own 56mm f/1.2...I don't know for sure but this is a very nice sharp lens (as they say, for the money)....or for any amount of money..Try it, if your not happy with it just send it back..

[APS-C] The Rokinon SP 1.2 series is honestly the most underrated glass I have used. This lens and the others in the series are some of the best full frame glass I have used. I can see why Samyang is now adapting them for the Meinster series. Though they should have picked a different name. I have used Zeiss, Sigma, and Canon L lenses of the same focal lengths. When it comes to sharpness and character these do a great job balancing it all.

[62 mm (Front)] I bought this along with the Sigma dc dn art 30mm 1.4 for my a6300. Optics wise I would choose this over the Sigma. The Rokinon is heavier with a plastic body and yet still nice feeling .There is little purple fringing wide open on high contrast scenes and it is completely gone between f2-2.8. The sharpness and contrast throughout is fantastic. I was surprised how well it did at 1.2. There is no noticeable distortion. The colors are great. The bokeh is very smooth. One of my favorite lenses I have ever owned. I plan I using this for Product shots, video and portraits. Remember if you buy this it is for apsc not full frame. Also manual focus only, which is very smooth. I would 100% recommend this lens. I posted a photo I took with it!!!
