Id wish Rokinon would just make all their lenses Tilt-Shift, like the 50mm and the 12mm or 14mm, I would just love those focals in tilt-shift with their epic IQ
So at current exchange rate the Tamron would be 960 €, roughly 1.250 € with Tax, freight cost and customs.
It seems that nowadays all new UWA(zooms) are terribly expensive.
Around a grand in GBP seems pretty good to me for a quality F2.8 wide angle zoom
I’d accept a grand in €.
However there’s one flaw – due to the front lens it does not support standard filters which out of reason for a uwa in my mind.
Any chance, that we will see the A-Mount 15-30 in january?
