The Fast All-Rounder Zoom - The Samyang AF 35-150mm F2-2.8 FE
has a maximum aperture of F2 at its widest and F2.8 at the
telephoto end, which covers the five main focal lengths
(35/50/85/135/150). With its wide zoom range, the lens is
designed as a fast all-rounder that covers a broad range of
shooting scenarios, from portraits to travel. The premium design
and performance of 2nd Generation lenses have been applied to the
lens, and it also supports the key features of recent Sony
mirrorless bodies, including Hybrid AF, Eye AF, Direct Manual
Focus (DMF), and the AF assist function.AF 35-150mm F2-2.8 FE Key
Features Covering everything between 35mm and 150mm - Samyang has
moved a step forward with its innovative second-zoom lens to
provide a more convenient user experience. The lens is remarkably
versatile as an all-in-one lens with fast maximum apertures and
provides a solution for photographers seeking to avoid lens
changing. It was clearly designed for a portrait photographer,
but the wide zoom range is also useful for everyone shooting
commercials, events and travel imagery. Outstanding Resolution,
from corner-to-corner. Thanks to the latest optical design of 21
elements in 18 groups and featuring an optimal combination of 2
ASP, 1 HB, 3 HR and 6 ED elements the lens presents superior
optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. When
combined with Sony’s full-frame image sensor, the AF 35-150mm
F2-2.8 FE delivers high image quality to the edges of the frame
with plenty of contrast. Fast and accurate AF performance - The
lens’ Linear Stepping Motor (STM) is fast and highly responsive
to both photographers and videographers. It delivers excellent
focus tracking and smooth transitions, from the Minimum Object
Distance (MOD) to infinity. It’s fast maximum aperture also helps
you control camera movement by allowing a higher shutter speed or
reducing noise by choosing a low ISO. The system is compatible
with Sony’s Fast Hybrid AF, and Eye AF camera functions as
in-camera lens corrections for shading, chromatic aberration, and
distortion. Impressive bokeh with a bright F2-F2.8 aperture - The
large aperture of the AF 35-150mm F2-2.8 FE presents an
attractive background blur to the image's out-of-focus areas. It
effectively separates the subject from the background, using a
shallow depth of field to capture a unique image in which the
background is compressed. The lens employs 9 diaphragm blades,
creating a smooth and attractive bokeh. Premium design and
usability. Since introducing the 2nd Generation lenses, Samyang
has introduced the 'Hidden red ring' design that has become part
of the brand’s design identity. The new design improves the look
and usability of the lens, reflecting customer feedback, with
enhanced tactile controls for focusing and precise focal length
adjustment. A lock switch on the body helps users keep the lens
set at its shortest 35mm position and is useful for protection
during travel. Enhanced Functionality with custom switch & button
- The two round buttons made of soft rubber have a focus save
function which can store 2 points of focus. In addition, three
custom mode switches on the lens can be pre-programmed via the
optional Lens Station, allowing you to set up the mode to suit
your preference. Optimized features for video shooting - 1) Dolly
Zoom : The Dolly Zoom is a powerful in-camera cinematic
technique. A professional dolly can be expensive and challenging
to operate, but this lens allows you easily take the dolly .
2) Cinematic Video AF: When shooting video, the AF speed is more
carefully adjusted than photo shooting, resulting in lower
wobbling and highly stable movie shooting. 3) Linear MF Focus
Control: Provides convenience to video shooters by matching the
torque of the focus ring as closely as possible to that of a
manual focus lens when shooting video in manual mode. 4) Digital
Par-Focal: Digital Par-focal is specialized for video shooting as
it can maintain focus on the subject when zooming in or out.
Since this function is usually ed in expensive cine zoom
lenses, it provides a more special experience and results to
customers who use this zoom lens. Weather-sealed design -
Considering the users’ shooting environment, the lens is designed
to be completely weather sealed at the and throughout the
body. Weather sealing is adopted in 11 areas to prevent damage
from dust, light rain, and snow. Short Minimum Focal Distance
0.33m (1.08ft) - The AF 35-150mm F2-2.8 delivers superior
close-up shooting performance for an all-rounder zoom. At the
35mm wide-angle end, the MOD (Minimum Object Distance) is 0.33mm.
Combined with the lens's fast apertures, it produces a unique
perspective close to the subject while presenting a beautifully
blurred background. Users can also take dynamic close-up s at
the 150mm telephoto end with a MOD of 0.85m. It makes taking
portraits with exaggerated features easier, food on tables, etc.
