The Samyang 24mm f/2.8 FE - after the success that was the Samyang 35mm f/2.8 FE was and some favourable reviews right off the bat, this one was a no-brainer, really.
I now have a wonderfully small FF setup: Sony A7 II, Sony 55mm f/1.8, Samyang 35mm f/2.8 and 24mm f/2.8. Very nice, and great to travel with (especially for city trips). Stabilised, and with the 55mm, weather resistant (to a degree). And quite affordable, too.
For longer trips with more divers subject matter, I'll still pick the (even smaller and lighter, yet much more versatile) setup: Panasonic GX80 with two primes (Laowa 7.5mm f/2 super-wide, Olympus 25mm f/1.8 normal) and zoom(s) (Olympus 14-150mm II - and sometimes, the Panasonic 100-300mm II as well), but the Sony setup is getting quite competitive, and optically, the small and cheap Samyangs hold their own.
