TTartisan has announced the release of a new manual 50mm F1.4 lens for Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z full-frame cameras, and L-mount cameras (Sigma, Leica, Panasonic).
Previously, this TTartisan lens was only available for the Leica M mount. The optical design of a 50mm lens consists of 10 elements in 8 groups.
The optical design uses several specialized elements to reduce various aberrations and distortions to achieve high sharpness and accurate images, namely 1 aspherical element, 1 anomalous dispersion element, and 8 high refractive index elements.
The viewing angle of the lens is 45º, and the maximum aperture is F/1.4. In this case, the minimum aperture is F/16. As mentioned above, the lens is exclusively equipped with manual focusing.
The minimum focusing distance is 50 cm. The lens aperture is 12-blade, and the new item weighs 329 grams. The lens has a 49 mm filter thread.
The lens itself has learned to be quite compact. Even with a Sigma fp camera, it doesn’t look bulky.
Price and availability
The TTArtisan 50mm F1.4 lens costs $282 and it can be purchased via the Amazon.com website for Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and L-mounts.
