Our editorial take on the Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 Series II Lens for Canon EF

The Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 Series II is a manual-focus ultra-wide-angle lens designed for Canon EF-mount full-frame cameras. At 14mm, it delivers the dramatic field of view prized by landscape, architecture, and astrophotography shooters, while the f/2.8 aperture provides solid low-light capability for night skies and dimly lit interiors. The Series II iteration adds weather sealing and a de-click switch for video work, along with a focus lock ring to prevent shifts during handheld shooting.

The optical formula includes three high-refractive elements, two extra-low dispersion glass elements, and both aspherical and hybrid aspherical elements to control distortion and chromatic aberration across the frame. Ultra multi-coating aims to reduce flare and ghosting when shooting into bright light sources. Manual focus is the only option, which is typical for budget ultra-wides and generally manageable at 14mm thanks to the deep depth of field. The weather-sealed build and sub-$350 price point position it as an affordable entry into ultra-wide shooting for creators who don't need autofocus.

Best for: Landscape, architecture, and astrophotography shooters on Canon EF-mount cameras who want an affordable ultra-wide lens and don't mind manual focus.
