About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
I own this lens, and I quite like it. It is heavy but quite versatile in terms of telephoto shooting.
A pretty neat lens for the price, good focal range from the wide end at 24mm to 70mm which is a decent amount of zoom. A lot cheaper than the Sigma equivalent / Sony GM equivalent but definitely quite heavy at 1027 grams.
You can also claim a free lens station (worth £59) from most UK retailers (purchases made between 30th June 2023
WEX: wexphotovideo.com/sam…66/
Jessops: jessops.com/p/s…651
London Camera Exchange: lcegroup.co.uk/New…tml
Many others too, seems like most UK retailers are participating including Wilkinson Cameras, Clifton Cameras, Carmarthen Cameras.
Thanks to @Willy_Wonka for pointing out the prices in the UK are good, I originally found a Amazon.DE 3 camel alert that is slightly cheaper, but with the lens station, this is a better deal.

Samyang AF 24-70mm F2.8 FE is Samyang's first Auto Focus Standard Zoom lens equipped with various functions optimized for video shooting that is different from other standard zoom lenses.
Among the 17 elements, we used 9 special glasses, and premium material is adopted for the barrel.
And it features weather sealing on 7 different spots in order to protect the lens from light rain or dust.
Also, we use the Linear STM motor for a fast and accurate AF to respond to track shooting with eye recognition and face recognition.
Zoom Lens Offering Stable Video Recording
As the AF 24-70mm F2.8 FE provides the 'Par-focal' function in manual focus video shooting mode, allows the user to zoom in on a subject and zoom back out while maintaining the same focus. Now the users are able to shoot cinematic-look videos more conveniently. Well-controlled AF movement speed in AF video shooting mode reduced its wobbling and noise, which maximizes the convenience of the lens usability.
*Par-Focal function is electronically controlled in MF Video shooting mode.
Excellent Resolution in All Areas of the Image
This zoom lens delivers a 24-70mm (wide-angle to short-telephoto) angle of view and a bright maximum aperture of F2.8 throughout the entire zoom range, as commonly utilized by full-frame camera users, so it can be used for diverse photos such as landscapes, portraits, and snaps. In particular, the optimum resolution is achieved through the optical design of 17 elements in 14 groups (2 ASP, 1 H-ASP, 3 HR, and 3 ED).
Take high-quality images with superior resolution in all areas of the image!
Impressive Background Blur and Bokeh with Bright F2.8 Aperture
Bright aperture of the AF 24-70 F2.8 FE offers beautifully blurred background. The subject and background are effectively separated with shallow depth of field, creating impressive images highlighting the subject. The 9-blade circular aperture contributes natural-looking bokeh and the beautiful starburst effect.
Short Minimum Focusing Distance
The minimum focusing distance is just 0.35m (1.15ft), so it is possible to produce a unique perspective close to the subject. It makes it easier to take various images such as food on tables or portraits with exaggerated features.
Advanced Fast and Quiet AF for Stills and Movies
Now Autofocus needs to consider not only how more accurately and quickly it captures images, but also how quiet and smooth it is. The AF 24-70mm F2.8 FE features the latest STM(Stepping Motor), a larger and heavier focus lens group can be controlled more quietly and precisely, providing excellent image quality in both photos and videos.
Weather Sealing for Protection from External Influences
The AF 24-70 F2.8 FE enhanced the usability considering the user's shooting environment. This Samyang's first zoom lens features weather sealing for 7 spots to protect from light dust, rain, and snow and provide the ability to capture stunning images in less than perfect conditions.
Custom Switch to Set Multiple Functions
Equipped with the Custom Switch, shooting and operation are more intuitive and simple. You can easily select various functions such as Aperture Control Mode or MF Mode from the Switch, and enjoy the shooting mode that suits your personal preference.
*More functions will be added through the firmware update in the future.
