The optics of the Samyang 24mm T1.5 ED AS IF UMC VDSLR Lens Nikon for Nikon D5100 consists of 13 lens elements in 12 groups, 4 lens elements are made from the low dispersion (ED) glass, this lowers the level of chromatic aberration, additionally, there are two aspherical elements to help stop the spherical aberration effect.

The focusing distance and aperture adjustments are plainly marked on the side of the lens barrel to permit fast and simple reference whenever mounted on to a tripod.

When using a Samyang wide angle lens, at times you will sometimes be located quite close to the subject, this causes foreground objects to seem quite large in the frame, and more distant objects appear exceptionally small. Wide angle lenses furthermore exaggerate the distance between objects, making subjects at moderate and far distances appear to be further away than they actually are.

Samyang wide angle lenses have an increased depth of field, simply because they cover a wider viewing angle, this makes them just the thing for shooting scenes where you have subjects at numerous distances, for instance a landscape with wildlife in the foreground and mountains in the background, and you need all the subjects in the image to be sharp.
