You are right - there's no stop between f/1.4 and f/2. That's rather typical for manual lenses.
I'm not aware of a video version - even their video fisheye (for Sony NEX) has "clicks".[/quote]
I meant this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samyang-35mm-f-1-4-UMC-CANON-VIDEO-DSLR-version-/180705186644?pt=UK_Lenses_Filters_Lenses&hash=item2a12de5354
I think it's done by removing some sort of a ball inside the lens so the ring doesn't click anymore. I'm wondering though whether it's good for photo or not, are there any downsides to having a smooth aperture ring for stills?
