TTArtisan Introduces a 35mm f/0.95 for APS-C Cameras

The 35mm f/0.95 is a new standard-length prime lens by TTArtisan for Sony, Fujifilm, Nikon, Canon, and Leica APS-C cameras. When mounted on an APS-C camera, the new lens has a 35mm full-frame equivalent focal length of 52.5mm, corresponding to a 45-degree angle of view. According to TTArtisan, it is suitable for various applications, including portraiture, street photography, nightscapes, landscapes, and reportage.

The fully manual lens has two high-index elements that work together, according to TTArtisan, to reduce the number of aberrations while contributing to high color accuracy and sharpness. It weighs roughly 267 grams and comprises seven elements arranged into five groups.

According to the manufacturer, the 10-bladed aperture diaphragm of the lens, which has an aperture range of f/0.95 to f/16, creates a dreamy bokeh that is full of atmosphere and creates a pleasing out-of-focus quality when working with selective focus techniques. The quick f/0.95 aperture, which also gives users excellent depth-of-field control, makes it perfect for working in low light.

The TTArtisan 35mm f/0.95 has a 52mm front filter size and a minimum focusing distance of 35 centimeters, or 13.8 inches. The lens’s overall measurements are 45 by 55mm, or around 1.8 by 2.2 inches.

Since the lens is entirely manual and does not electronically communicate with the linked camera, no EXIF information will also be provided. However, because there is no direct camera control, it is only available in the Canon RF mount, which is unusual given that Canon not only refuses to license its mirrorless mount to lens manufacturers but also actively pursues any business that tries to reverse engineer the design.

In addition to Canon RF, the TTArtisan 35mm f/0.95 is available for Fujifilm X mount, Sony E mount, Nikon Z mount, Canon EOS-M mount, and Leica L mount. The lens retails for $210, but at the time of publication was discounted to $199.
