Rokinon 35mm 1.4 Nikon Mount Lens $300

vicharris — Thu, 11 Jul 2013 15:08:21 +0000

Selling off my Rokinon 35mm since I went all cine versions. Nothing at all wrong with it and actually barely used it. Willing to ship overseas but not sure if that would be worth it since I've seen them on Ebay go for around $325 in Europe. $300+shipping.

Drinking and Driving PSA

vicharris — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 11:59:55 +0000

Here's a little PSA we were working on for the past couple months. Shot it 1080 but uploaded at 720 since most people who watch this aren't going to blow it up to full screen and pixel peep like we do! :) It was a fun little project and I know where the weak spots are. Damn you LCW ND filter and rolling shutter!!!! Anyways, hope you like it.

14mm Samyang

It looks like we don't have dedicated topic about this lens. Just many separate posts in wide lenses topics.

Quite good subjective review in Russian (use google translate if you need to) :

FS: Voightlander 17.5 and Nikon d7000 w/3 lenses & flash

GravitateMediaGroup — Sat, 19 Jan 2013 17:21:14 +0000

UPDATE: Reduced price of the Voightlander $50

The Voightlander is roughly 3 months old, MINT condition, original box included. $1050 (free shipping to US) may settle for $1000 http://www.ebay.com/itm/321059063300?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

Nikon d700 $1300 Starting Bid - $1500 buy it now I am willing to negotiate the price of the D7000, but when you add up all the contents, this actually is a really really good deal IMO http://www.ebay.com/itm/321057537040?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

If possible it would be nice to just make any transaction through PayPal to avoid the ebay seller fee.
It's a shame that ebay and paypal are pretty much one in the same, yet both hit a seller with fees. not cool

FS: Rokinon 85mm Nikon mount and Rokinon 14mm Canon mount

vicharris — Sat, 08 Dec 2012 01:41:42 +0000

Selling both of these Rokinon Primes because I switched to the Cine versions. The 14mm is literally brand new. It came in the mail last week. I bought the reg version and cine version after a long thanksgiving day drinking binge. Thought I'd keep the one I liked. Anyways, it's new. I've had the 85mm for about 8 months now. Zero marks on it. Selling em both for $550 plus shipping.

Amazon Lightning Deal on Rokinon 35mm/1.4

fetzu — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 12:28:33 +0000

I don't know if it is allowed in here, but amazon is having a lightning deal on the Rokinon 35/1.4 right now: $123 off, bringing the total to $375. I've read in a lot of placed that it was a great prime at an already very reasonable price. Available on many different mounts. http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/all-deals?type=ld

PS: I hope I'm not breaking any rules!

Help me to select gear. Beginners topic.

blackste — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 06:01:03 +0000

Hi, I am all set to order a Rokinon 85mm 1.4 to use with my hacked GH1. Currently I have the Lumix 14-140 and 20mm pancake. I will be ordering this from USA along with some other items and using US address supplied by https://bongous.com/ to have the goods delivered to my country.

I am accumulating as many things as possible that I need from USA, since I get to save on the freight charges.

I would appreciate your help on things I need for using the Rokinon (this is mainly for the video) on GH1 and some suggestion on other gears.

Here is my list

1. Rokinon 85mm 1.4 for Canon (going Canon as I have plans to buy some Canon FD lens, however no Canon lenses with me yet)
2. Which canon adapter would you recommend? Will the EF mount be able to take FD lens? Or you need a separate FD adapter as well?
3. Need a Vari-ND filter. How many stops will be needed if I need to use 1.4 in daylight on ISO 100 at 50 fps? Is Fader ND from Lightcrafts a good buy? Is 77mm future proof?
4. Would like to buy some FD macro lens. Any suggestions? This is also for video mainly. Any other FD lens that would be a nice addition?
5. What is the secret behind the cost of the Novoflex FD adapter?
6. Is there any focus help available for the Rokinon on a GH1?
7. Any budget follow focus with rods etc? This is not a priority, but I just might get one.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

35mm Rokinon Light Reflection due to UV filter

Tommyboy — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 23:43:48 +0000

Does any one know what is causing this light reflection in the lens. What is the technical term for it?
How can I avoid it in the future? Can I remove it in post? Just point me in the right direction so I can educate myself.
