Amazon is running a sale on Rokinon/Samyang Lenses for Sony Full Frame E-Mount Cameras. These can also be used on Sony APS-C cameras as well.

Available lenses:The three F1.4 lenses are fast primes and are good for strong bokeh/subject separation. I have the 35/50/85mm, and I'd definitely pick the 85mm out of all of them if I had to choose one (and its the cheapest right now!). I paid like $500+ for mine, so $350 is a steal.

The 35mm has a real close focus distance which can make for some interesting shots.

The 50mm is an older design so the focusing is a little on the slow slide, but still the best value fast 50 lens.

Samyang 85 is for $377 with code BF20 on its site https://samyangus.com/products/85...PnEALw_wcB
Wow, those are some great prices on a few of the lenses. I don't need any right now, but if you want a portrait lens, the 85 1.4 punches way above a $350 price tag.

$322 + 50 = $372, a bit cheaper than $390. No much.
It's $390 - 20% off = $312

Anyone have a good wide option for real estate photography?

Is the 25 mm to big of a focal length for real estate?

I have the Sony 85 1.8 and love it. Should I go for the 135, would I use it for portraits compared to 85

Oh shoot you're right. When I bought the lens bundle the lens itself wasn't discounted, they dropped the price today. Ugh this is super annoying

Quote from Amazonian_Hotdog :
Which camera are you using? The Samyang 85mm listed here has really bad focusing issues. I'm using an a7 III and have nothing but isdues. It may work for a few shots or even 10 then it can't focus on anything the save its life. It will just wig out and go in and out of focus. Got the "dock" to update the firmware but no change. Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing? My Sony and Sigma lenses have no issues.
I have the Rokinon 85mm 1.4 w/ A7IV and my only focus complaint is eye lash AF with my dog, but it's kind of a mute point as I need at least 5.6 to get her snout in focus.

One of my favorite character lenses. I use it at weddings for some great portraits.

I also have the 85/1.4 and it's awesome.

Tempted by the 24/1.8, but not sure I'd use it enough with my Tamron 17-28/2.8...

24mm is really tempting. I already upgraded cameras and lenses for the year and promised my partner I was done. Going to have to hide my phone so I don't do it lol.

The 85 1.4 is humongous though

Ofc 135 > 85 for portraits. But you gotta make distances tho. I also have 35, 50, 85 but i plan to go for a zoom one 24-70
