Features
Recommended - A practical AF video lens in its own right and especially as a part of the V-AF range
Review by John Riley
Currently the most wide-angle lens in Samyang’s new unified range of cine primes for Sony E-mount cameras, it’s compact and lightweight yet strongly built and delivers very convincing performance in every respect. Tally lights built into the front and side of the lens add to the attraction, along with an electronic connection for forthcoming accessories. It’s also plenty sharp enough for high-resolution full-frame stills as well as 8K video. All in all, it’s a great cine lens at a very attractive price.

Description
The V-AF increases compatibility with gimbals and drones by applying the unified form factors with its 5 different focal lengths (Ultra-Wide to Medium-tele). By providing a compact size of 73 X 70mm and a light-weight of less than 300g, there is no need to re-set the equipment when changing the lenses.
The lamp located on the front and mount index helps the user to check whether a video is recorded or not while shooting. It supports video content creation more conveniently even in a small space without a lot of equipment.
The new V-AF series supports resolutions up to 8K in a small and lightweight form, which is well suited for use with handheld gimbals and drones, as well as for studios and location productions. All lenses within the new V-AF series are color-matched to avoid shifts when swapping lenses, and the 9 aperture blades allow for a natural-looking bokeh.
Features the 'Focus save' function usually in professional cine equipment and custom mode that adds function by firmware, which provides video-specific functions for students and amateur users who dream of cinematographers.

News
Samyang have now released an additional focal length to their V-AF line-up, the V-AF 100mm T2.3. This lens is identical to its siblings with its distinct light brown coloured front and slick design, I honestly haven't seen any other sophisticated lens design like this before. My first impressions of this lens is its obvious small size and weight which is what Samyang is aiming for. The smaller size and lighter weight make it extremely easy to use with a gimbal, and alongside the other V-AF lenses as there is no need to rebalance your gimbal when changing lenses. One note to mention is that I found the 100mm is slightly front heavy, which is understandable in my opinion, it is 100mm after all! Plus, its size is already pushing the limits for this focal length, but the difference is not that much, so even our old gimbal can hold the 100mm after balancing for the other V-AF lenses.
In the world of photography, the choice of lens is critical in capturing the perfect shot. While renowned camera manufacturers often offer a variety of lenses, third-party lens manufacturers like Samyang have been gaining popularity among both amateur and professional photographers. In this blog, we will explore the reasons why people should consider Samyang third-party lenses over others and why they can trust the brand for delivering exceptional results.
With the upcoming release of the new Samyang V-AF 45mm T1.9 FE, we thought we’d reflect on the three currently available V-AF lenses with Jay Gilmour.
Samyang have seen a gap in the market and done exactly what they do best, filled it with just what we need. The innovative V-AF series is a set of full frame compatible Sony FE mount lenses designed for a wide variety of users, from solo videographer to small productions. These impressive new products have a unified form factor, all managing to be the same size and weight, whilst still covering a wide range of focal lengths. The series comprises of a 20mm, 24mm, 35mm, 45mm, and finally a 75mm.
