i am sure it is samyang. SEL16mm is not a very good lens at all.

If you're using the Samyang with NEX7, please be aware of the purple fringing at the corners of your image.
I can see it on my photos if the corners of the image is white or light coloured objects.

It depends on whether you want autofocus or not. The Samyang is a full manual focus lens. It is also slightly bulkier than the 16mm. But the image quality more than makes up for it I think.

Why you want the F3.5 over the F2.8?
F3.5 is a basically DSLR version with extension tube ending E mount. It was already in market before F2.8 version.
