I read reports some time ago (maybe even here on PU) of the release of a new Samyang version of the 24mm TS, and as for all Samyang still camera lenses it was coming out for K mount. It was expected to be a quality item, although good value also. Not sure about the 'A' setting for aperture as on other K-mount options from this brand - its certainly a big plus...
You cannot have the A setting on a TS lens as you cannot make the linkages. Given the nature of the lens it isn't really an issue. I have the K series shift lens but the shorter focal length of the Samyang is certainly attractive.

Some great photos only marginally spoilt by the use of "monochromal"...

I bought a Samsung tablet because I didn't have the dosh at time for an Apple. I liked it so much that when my Blackberry phone died I got a Samsung phone, it seemed to make sense. I hate the phone and I thinking of going back to a Blackberry. Go figure...

For Heaven's sake folks, it's a bit of technology that'll be in the bin in five years. It really isn't worth getting worked up about. It's almost as bad as the film v. digital, RAW v. jpg, 'FF' v. APSC... Do what works for you and let everyone else do their thing.

I'm off out with my 1957 FED leaving the phone at home with a dead battery...! K.

There is a slight confusion in this thread between secure storage and means of public display.

Pengbai was selling one for £300 but I don't know if it sold, and one went on ebay recently for £280.

The ghostless filters are, I believe, of the M42 Takumar era and were curved to do exactly that, be ghostless. To be effective the curve should be the same (?ish) as the front element. I doubt the M50/1.4 is the same, but it is probably close enough as to make little difference. Try taking a series of shots with and without and see what happens?

Merry Christmas, Kris.
