A follow-up to earlier video about the TTArtisan 25mm f2 on Fujifilm rangefinder bodies, showing a few more photos and situations with this lens including in low-ish light (dawn, early morning, before sun-up); or wide open in broad daylight, looking for distortion in the corners; or in a neighborhood and nature as the sun is rising.
I also talk about some lens flare issues that show up at f2 (especially) and compare that to the TTArtisan 23mm f1.4 which I am told is multi-coated (or has more coatings against flaring than the low price compact 25mm f2).

I have a more expensive digital Nikon for "serious work", but just picked up a used X-Pro2 for something lighter and for more personal moments. I was about to order the amazing Voigtlander 27mm f2 lens to go with it (busting the budget), and am serious thinking I want one anyway but then I thought I'd stumble on this review. Man! this TTartisan, or rather the images you've showed from it is a must have. People pay C$85 for a Black mist filter and this lens has is built in, and in spades lol. I'm not being sarcastic. This type of lens, combined with Fuji nostalgic film simulations is the closest one can get to an analogue (filmesque)result I feel. Don't excuse the lens flare. Don't excuse the lack of sharpness. Go out and walk around with this lens. Enjoy the manual focus, and make images. Take a tripod ( like they used to), when shooting at night. Cheers.

I’m fortunate to have several great Fuji lenses . I just recently purchased this little lens and I have to agree with your sentiment .. “I’m happy to have it in my life”. It’s a good little pancake lens for my Fuji xt3. I’m surprised by the quality of the pictures it’s taken for the price.

I shot with the 50mm 1.2 for 15 minutes saturday on an xa7. I was impressed enough that after i finished editing i ordered the 50mm f2 for an eos m6.

The 50mm f2 is nice. I've been want the 50mm 1.2 for my Leica T as it comes in silver and would match the body, but I have the f2 for my Fujis and I really appreciate its compactness and I like the shots I get on it.

@@jshell oh you will like it when you pick it up. I think slipping the m6 and f2 50mm in a jacket pocket would be great. Of course now the weather is 75 degrees.

Between the 7artisans 25mm f1.8 and the Ttartisan 25mm f2, Ttartisan’s lens is probably the better lens because of the clicked aperture ring and better barrel distortion performance and vignetting but on the other hand the 7artisans’ lens has a silver colour option… i want a silver lens to match my camera… stuck in a predicament 🥲😭

I know the feeling! I wish this was in silver too. I just picked up an old silver Leica T and got a silver TTArtisan 35 f1.4 and it matches so nicely. But I prefer this focal length and really like this little 25mm lens from TTArtisan and want it for my T and wish it matched. There’s no 7 Artisans 25 1.8 at all for L mount.

Great review! What is the speed differnce between the ttartisan 25 f2 vs 7artisans 25 f1.8? Read somewhere that the ttartisan 25 f2 goes brighter than f2.

@jshell Год назад

Good question! I don't know the answer to that. 1.8 and 2.0 seem pretty close. Since there are so many of these cheap 25mm lenses across all the Chinese makers (Meike, Pergear, Voking, all seem to have their own variation of this), I wouldn't be surprised if the TTArtisan 25mm f2 was really a 1.8 but was easier to market as an f2 along side their similarly-designed 50mm f2. The tolerances on these low cost lenses seem pretty loose while still delivering decent pictures.
