same lens? The Samyang is $100 less....
> I want to be able to get shots of the milkyway/night sky, landscape, I will definitely use stabilization because I have shaky hands, will probably do 4K video (but not primarily) I know I'll get a tripod too. What are the benefits of a full frame?
I've done astro on my A6000, you just need to pair it with the right glass. Rokinon / Samyang 12mm F2.0
Are these the same lens? samyang vs. rokinon
Hey, I'm not sure what AFAIK means. But this is the exact lens:

If it's due to the lens being fully manual does this means there is no solution?
I've booked 2 vacations for this year, Peru (machu pichu) and California (Yosmite, Nappa Valley). As such, I've decided that I'd like to purchase a camera to photograph my adventures. After a ton of reading, I've narrowed down my choice to Sony a6000 (due to its compact size, i'll be doing a ton of hiking) with the 16-55m kit lens. In order to take advantage of all the landscapes, I'm also looking to purchase a wide lens, the rokinon 12mm. If its possible, I'd appreciate the any feedback on these choices, if there are better alternatives etc. My budget is around is capped out at $1,000. Also, is there any difference between these two lenses besides the prices?

From my understanding these are identical, just branded different for whatever reason.
Thanks!
thanks will check those out. actually while looking up the 14mm i also found this 12mm https://www.amazon.com/Samyang-SY12M-Ultra-Angle-Cameras/dp/B00KT0UH72 which seems like it would be good too
