Lens Advice

[astrochris]

So I want to start taking shots of the Milky Way again. I have a full frame Sony A7 with a 28mm f/2.8 lens. I would like something wider and my two choices are the Rokinon 11mm f/2 or the 14mm f/2.8. Which would you prefer and why?

Thank you in advance

If they do the 24mm  for the Sony then I'd have that..i have the 14mm and although it's a superb lense..the 24 is superior...think I see that they released the new range  and im sure the 14mm was £899 and at f2.4 instead of f2.8

Have you taken some milky way shots already and confirmed you are happy with what you get using the lens you already have and have you used exposures longer than 4 seconds?

11mm and 14mm are too much wide, i also agree to go with 24mm, even 20mm is good enough, sometimes i don't like that so much wide as we call it "Ultra" or "Super" wide angle, i do have 14mm Samyang, but if i shoot wide landscapes or nightscapes and including the sky then i will use the zoom lens such as 16-35 or the one i have Tamron 15-30 or even 24mm f1.4 if i can have this lens.

I have an astro cheap camera which is ASI120MC, and this camera is coming with a so wide lens to be used, i didn't test it yet, but sounds the camera with lens will be a good combo for milky way images.
