Any chance of testing this lens soon? I don't have a lens shorter than 50mm and I am considering this, along Tamron 17-50mm (non-VC) and Samyang 14mm. They are closely priced. I would prefer a prime lens but the 14mm seems to wide. I would prefer a prime somewhere in the 18-22 range but there is none at a reasonable price (for me). Thanks.

Unless there'll be a friendly supplier, we'll review the 12mm f/2 first but even that will take a while.

It is a relatively good lens, so go for it I guess.

Thanks. I was surprised to find just a couple of reviews of this lens since it's been a while since it's been released and Samyang lenses are very well thought of, at least in terms of performance/price.
