Greg the Samyang is a popular lens by all reports. However I have no personal experience of it.
However the Distagon is excellent, and although it is many years since I had a collection of Zeiss lenses I wouldn't hesitate to buy another of the older models, and am casting around for some old primes in the 28/35/100/200 size range.
I wish I could find an EOS adapter for my Zeiss 100 f2.8 that is with the Werra lens set. It is beautifully sharp with great colour.
Another lens I liked was the Kiron 24mm f2. The were an independent lens maker in Japan that also made quality laboratory optics. Back story is that designs were done by ex-nikon lens makers. Thus the name: Nikkor/Kiron [better than Kirkon or Kironk I suppose :-) ]
I am in favour of some of the Konica Hexanon range of primes also.
For what it's worth. Trev
