LensTips posted its full Samyang AF 35-150mm f/2-2.8 review which you can read in full here. You can check out the pro/cons below:

Pros:

  • unique parameters,
  • very good image quality in the frame centre across the whole focal range,
  • good image quality on the edge of the APS-C sensor,
  • negligible longitudinal chromatic aberration,
  • sensible control of lateral chromatic aberration,
  • moderate distortion not only on the APS-C sensor but also on full frame,
  • low astigmatism,
  • silent and quite fast autofocus,
  • slight vignetting on the APS-C sensor,
  • negligible focus breathing.

Cons:

  • too weak image quality on the edge of the frame at the longest focal lengths,
  • distinct vignetting on full frame,
  • a bit of problems with spherical aberration,
  • performance against bright light could have been better,
  • whimsical autofocus performance,
  • low resistance on the zoom ring that makes it easy to change accidentally the focal length by just moving the lens or just under the influence of gravity.
