Was looking for some fast lenses for portraits on DigitalRev & stumbled across this lens, a Samyang 7.5mm for Canon mount(It says MFT lens but has Canon/Sony-A/Nikon as mount options other than M4/3) goo.gl/0Z7x2 I mailed the DigitalRev team & they confirmed after checking with their warehouse that they do have a 7.5mm for Canon. Anyone tried this lens? If it really exists would be really nice to have a compact alternative to the existing 8mm Samyang.

Are they crazy! Samyang 7.5mm has a flange distance of 20mm for M43. You need to remove the mirror box of Canon APS-C (flange distance of 44mm) and put the lens inside the camera!

They might be confusing the Samyang 7.5mm M4/3 lens with the 8mm lens which does come in all mounts.
