Hey guys, I'm thinking about selling my Rokinon 35mm canon mount. It's just been sitting at home for the last couple months and I haven't used it in forever. I've babied this lens since I've had it and would rate it a 9/10. It's always had a UV filter on it.

Brand new it sells for $408 on B+H, I'd love to sell it for $330 shipped.

Thanks guys! I can get photos if anyones interested.

cdipT1.5 or 1.4?

For this lens, they are the same. F 1.4 is the ratio of the aperture diaphragm to the focal length. T1.5 is how much light actually reaches the sensor (due to some being absorbed by the glass or something similar). The T1.5 is the same lens, just with a slightly reworked housing and gears. If you are going to be using the lens on a follow focus, then you should probably look for the T1.5 "cine" version. Otherwise, optically the two are the same, so go with whatever is cheapest.

Yeah it really just comes down to the gears and if you'd benefit from them or not

Someone buy up! This is a great go-to-lens. On M4/3 with a speedbooster you can shoot many different things on it. Also great with S35 sensors or even APSC.
