Why did I buy this tripod? As you can see from the title, this goes incredibly well with the sony A7. The second main reason was that I really wanted to avoid buying a tripod with a rotating mechanism (tripod legs), because you turn a branch there. With the clip mechanism, the tripod is set up in no time at all. Just lovely. In addition, it is super designed and the price is really good for what it comes with. The bag alone surprised me a lot, because it looks really well made! A tripod should make photography easier and I think this tripod does that; all times! I am absolutely satisfied and I hope for a very long life.

use the tripod stationary at home for photos and videos (Sony a7 or Sony a6000). The tripod fits my size 100%. Price/performance and quality also fit from my point of view. Personally, I would go for traveling or hiking (if I should need it) get a slightly lighter tripod.

Yeah well nice man, especially if you have a Sony a7 goes with the orange around the lens

Love how easy it is to set up. You don't have to format the memory card in a different computer. You just plug it in and it formats itself.

Fits my pentax k lenses and my alpha 7 ii camera

Price / performance is very good. The filter works really well with my Sony A7 siii and 27-70 Sigma lens!

use the lens on my Canon 5d II full format camera - I am very satisfied with the imaging performance. Of course there is vignetting with an open aperture of 2.8 - but you hardly take pictures with it anyway. There are certainly better lenses - but you have to put down at least twice as much and therefore I can only recommend the lens to everyone who wants to use it from time to time. Anyone who needs a UWW professionally should take a look at the 11 or 15 mm from IRIX.

use the following other lenses on my Sony A7 Mark III: 24 - 105mm 4.0 | 16 - 35mm 4.0 | 85mm 1.8 | Just so you have references for my review...I think the lenses I listed above are beyond reproach. I was skeptical about the Samyang at first. I bought the lens because I ... a) wanted a light fixed focal length that forces me to use this really "cool" 35mm;-) b) wanted a light combination c) I'm still relatively flexible with it ("Street " not necessarily only people, but in the city) possibly also portraits (not classic, just more reportage) ... the fixed focal length should of course be quite sharp (but sharpness is really not the most important thing for me when taking photos, just a side note) d) Face detection and eye autofocus would be very nice because then I can focus on composition The Samyang really has all of those things. That's a really good lens! It is of course a value for money monster! The only downside... no metal, but plastic. But I can do without it. It would be "stupid" the other way around. Metal and for that a cucumber of lens, right? Here you can really access without hesitation. It's a lot of fun, the autofocus works really surprisingly well...I wasn't really expecting it.
