    Feeler: Rokinon (Vivitar) 35mm f/1.4 for EF mount

    Mint condition, purchased this summer, standard aperture ring (not declicked), no focus chip

    These go on FM for $400.

    Just seeing if anyone is even interested. I love the lens and it's super duper sharp - but my body spends such limited time on legs these days it's not really seen any use due to the MF and no focus confirmation. For whatever reason, I haven't gone on dedicated landscape shooting trips, nor have I been shooting any urban night stuff, in recent time where this lens could kill it. And I have some indoor stuff coming up where I need fast AF.

    Definitely the most fun lens I have, definitely one of the least practical since I don't do video.

    hmmm, maybe just double-down and drop $175 on a focusing screen and screwdriver ... but it still means needing a 17-55 for indoor gigs, which means I'm out a grand instead of $800 - whatever I can get for the Vivi.
