Product Overview

Samyang 135mm F2.0 ED UMC is a manual-focus medium telephoto prime lens for Canon EF-mount, Canon EF-M-mount, Micro Four Thirds-mount, Fujifilm X-mount, Micro Four Thirds-mount, Nikon F-mount, Pentax K-mount, Samsung NX-mount, Sony A-mount, and Sony E-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Samyang in 2015, it has 11 elements in 7 groups.
Manual focus may be limiting to some, but purists will find it much more engaging. There are also fewer things to go wrong on the long run. Unfortunately, Samyang has opted to omit weather sealing for this lens, so owners should pay extra attention when shooting in incremental weathers.
A telephoto prime lens, the Samyang 135mm F2.0 ED UMC is well suited for portrait photography.
