Samyang officially announced its first APS-C lens for Canon RF mount, and this starts a new partnership between the new-age Canon RF series cameras and Samyang, the lens maker. We know that Samyang makes amazing lenses, but unfortunately, the mount was locked for so long. Even now, it’s not completely open; only a few selected third-party lenses not in Canon’s own RF lens lineup are allowed to be in the market after sharing a decent profit. The thing is, at least we have started getting third-party lenses for the RF mount, and that’s the best part.
