I was looking at a Rokinon lens and then this one was suggested to me.  Never heard of this brand. Their website was super slow and I could only see "TH Swiss" lower left on their site.  So is this a Swiss brand?

A relative newcomer. I believe it's made in China....

Never heard of this one.  

Speaking of reviews, aren't some of them on Amazon gamed?

Yes, Amazon has some "gamed" reviews, that's why its important to read a lot of them if possible, poor and rave reviews alike.

+1 ^^^

A few weeks ago I decided to find an inexpensive dash cam. I was amazed at the glowing reviews for some products that had all been posted within the previous several weeks. That's an immediate alarm.

Read, then search the web.

That said, I love my Venus Optics Laowa 15mm f/4 Macro.
