The Samyang is a complex lens.
A) On FF it need to be shaved.
B) The focus AND aperture-ring needs to run free.
Focus too ? Yes Focus too....
C) Because of that, a bridge and a second ring is needed.

A challenge for Nick :-)

Hi Frank,

Why can't it use a fixed focus?

For the Samyang fisheye, see the small adaptation done by Michel Thoby on the NN R1/R10 Sigma ring (i.e. insertion of a lens support in aluminum), here is an
illustration of the project:

More info here: http://www.panoguide.com/forums/tipsntricks/6815/

it's a ±DIY solution.
Because the lens is better indoor at 3m and outdoor at infinity and the fact it has a long focusscale, it's nice to have a free focusring.
The biggest plus of this lens is only on a FF camera.

The lens itself is a bit of a hype now because it's cheap.
Wait and see how many actually use it and need a Fanotec solution.

3 more lens rings just released.

Note that the flash housing will interfere with the lens ring during mounting and dismounting the lens if the handgrip of camera is at normal facing up position.

I also find out that Sigma fisheyes for Sigma mount can share the same lens ring with sigma fisheyes for Canon.
