REVIEW: Samyang T-S 24mm f/3.5 ED AS UMC Lens Review
Handling and features Tilt-shift lenses are normally so expensive that many photographers cannot justify the cost, despite its benefits with control of the focal plane and of distortion.

Costing considerably less than other tilt & shift lenses, the new Samyang T-S 24mm boasts an impressive set of features and excellent build quality. But how will it perform when put through our tests?

As a tilt-shift lens option, Samyang offers a very economic opportunity with optimal quality for all photographers to taste tilt-shift experience. Unless users go "pixel-peeping", the quality is nice and sufficient. The ideal aperture is f/8 for best sharpness.
Pros:
- 1
- Very economic opportunity to use tilt-shift lens, 2
- Nice build quality but one "tick" lower grade than Canon, 3
- Nice aperture control ring, 4
- Nice resolution when not tilted, not shifted
- 5
- Light-weight and sturdy
Cons:
- 1. Lock switches release lock completely when you turn them a bit 2. Tilted and shifted images have lower resolution at the edges 3. Focus ring is very easy to rotate
- not well damped
