Hi guys,
Planning on getting some new kit this week, and amongst the long wish list , is a new 35mm lens for Eos cameras. Seen that samyang has a very reasonably priced new 1.4 lens just out, and of course canon has a 1.4 for much more, as well as an f2 lens etc. Anyway just wanted to know your thoughts on the samyang, if you've tried it, or if you've tried any 35mm that you'd like to recommend.
A friend of ours who is a very successful pro photographer is quite snobby about gear, and won't use anything other than canon or Zeiss glass, but we're keeping an open mind, mainly cos we can't afford thousands of pounds on each lens we buy, lol.
Primarily interested in filming music videos, such as this one which was recently completed, but want to step things up to the next level. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3f2bnehtTI
Thanks in advance for your help x
