Would you please explain diferences between this lens and Rokinon 35mm f/1.4 Lens for Canon Cameras

HelloWell as you can see the Rokinon cine lens 35mm t1.5 is made especific for video and cine cameras, the rokinon 35mm f 1.4 is for still pictures, keep in mind that F 1.4 and t 1.5 are not the same apertures also the rokinon cine lens series that aperture ring is declicked allowing a more smooth transition in apertures when shooting movies. They are both excellent pieces of optics but one is more suited for videos and movies than the counterpart of the same size. Hope this answer your question. Thanks.

Mainly price. The Rokinon lenses are very good. I own a 35 and 24 Rokinon as well as some Canons. I think they perform extremely well.

This lens has a fully manual aperture ring with gears for follow focus specifically made for video. It still takes great photos and is worth every penny

The two main things are 1.) the aperture can can be smoothly opened and closed, 2.) there is a gear ring for the focus, so that a 'follow focus' rig can be attached. So if you are shooting a video the shooter can manually, smoothly, and finely keep the subject in focus. These two features also allow you to refine your depth of field and to create some beautiful effects through focus/de-focus moves.

I have. It works fine but due to the senor size, the field of view is less. Unlike Canon lens, there is no red dot on the Rokinon so you need to be careful. I have used several different Rokinon lens and they all work on the Metabones speed booster.

I do not know. I do NOT own the Rokinon lens. I returned it because it was too large to handle for me.

Two different types of systems. Although the M can be used with just about any EOS lens, via an adapter, the image will be cropped, so for example a 35mm lens will be the same as a 50mm lens etc. Canon makes great lenses, I have owned 20 or more of them, but if you are going to spend the money on a full format lens, then I would suggest using it on an uncropped sensor camera like a 5D mark iii. The full format lenses are much larger and heavier then their cropped sensor counterparts. The FujiFilm 35mm 1.4 is less than 1/2 the weight of the Canon 35mm 1.4 and it is about 1/3 the price. Both are stellar lenses. In fact the Canon 35mm 1.4 L is one of my all time favorite lenses. But given the weight and size of that lens paired with any of Canon's full frame or cropped sensor cameras including the M, I would rather spend the day at Disneyland or hiking around the country with the FujiFilm. But if the weight is no issue for you and you already own some great Canon glass then buy the M. In my personal experience, the FujiFilm lenses are Razor sharp. I own 5 of them and each are on par with some of the best glass out there. The bokeh is a little nervous, not as creamy as the Canon L glass but better than most of Canon's consumer level lenses. But I find that the camera and lenses from my X-Pro are so light that I take the camera everywhere, where as I found myself leaving my full frame Canon at home before I moved to the FujiFilm.

The Canon 50mm 1.8f has a front filter of 52mm, where the 50mm 1.4f has a 58mm front filter thread. Not sure if the Lens includes adapters for both sizes since I do not work for them. I can't remember if adapters were included in the one I returned. Personally I don't think the lens is worth buying. Good luck, hope that helps.

Depends on what you are going to use it for. I have the 1.8 50mm and the 1.4 85. The 85 1.4 has much more versatility for portraits and can create amazing blur beyond what the 1.8 can. It also allows for a faster shutter when shooting portraits of young kids(which helps with movement). Lastly, it is an amazing macro lens, but unless you are really into that, the 1.8 is sufficient in my humble opinion

I have not had a chance to compare both but this sigma is the first non canon lens I have put in my bag. Have 6 different ones and the sigma is a great value. I have not regretted it.

The 50mm f/1.4 doesn't offer enough of an image quality boost over the 50mm f/1.8 to justify buying it. The 85mm f/1.8 offers faster ring type USM focusing, the 50mm f/1.8 does not. The 85mm f/1.8 has a rich and creamy bokeh that is as good or better than the 50mm f/1.4. While still being a great traditional portrait lens, the extra reach of the 85m f/1.8, makes it great for concerts, plays, and gymnasium sports. I like to say the 85mm f/1.8 is the lens that every parent should own (and anyone who wants to sell photos to parents too).

I have the 85 f1.8D and 35 f2D and they are fantastic. The two lenses you mention should be even better. The 35 is such a versatile focal length, I have been using as my all purpose lens.

If your new to filming. A focal range of 35mm 50mm and 85mm are good lenses to look at. If your new buy something cheap in your price range and learn. Than once you have the skill spend the money on the gear. This rokinon is a great lens and I would recommend this as a 35mm lens its what I use on most of my interviews and shoots for my work.

They are different. Those are different, they are not prime lenses. 135 is faster lens, the other are not so much. However the others are more versatile as far as focus. Depends on what you want to do, and how you're gonna use them. If you are gonna be shooting long distance portraits in low light, 135. The other options are more versatile as far as zoom, but you'll need a little more light. I loved the 135, we use it a lot for portraits in weddings.

As with any lens, if you buy the version that matches your camera, in this case Canon, it will work. Be careful to check which mount you are buying. Also you should realize that this lens is the same as the Rokinon, Samyang, and Bower 85mm lenses. It is sold under several names. I can vouch for the image quality. It takes beautiful images but remember that it is MANUAL focus. I have switched to using a 100mm f2.8 lens. The in focus area is not as narrow but for portrait work it is narrow enough and having auto focus really is better.

I love that lens it's more comparable to a Ziess 85mm. The bokeh at 1.5 is awesome! I would highly recommend it over the canon 1.8

Often times Fuji AF system frustrates me. I hear that XF35mm lens performance might feel better with X-T1 but with my X-E1 your description is really familiar to me. When it happens, I put it in manual focus mode which makes a great photo.

Honestly, I like the quality of the Cine lens more than the regular Rokinon. Also it's easier to change the Aperture with the Cine lens if that is important for you. I hope this information helps.

I have the Canon 50 f1.4, the Canon 100 f2.0, the Canon 135 f2.0L, and this lens. I recently sold my 24-105 f4L. I use primarily the sigma 35 art or the 135L, it depends on what I am shooting. I do love this lens though. It is sharp and fast.

Or the 35mm F1.8 AF-S which is closer in price to this lens. (I have the 35mm and its fantastic for what that is worth).
