A marvel of optical engineering, the TTArtisan 40mm f2.8 Macro Lens for Sony E is designed to cater to the discerning photographer's quest for superior image quality. This compact and lightweight lens, with a filter size of 52mm, measures approximately 62mm x 76mm and weighs around 371g, making it a portable addition to any photographer's toolkit. The lens boasts a 1:1 magnification ratio, delivering high-resolution images with a dreamy bokeh effect. This makes it an ideal choice for close-up photography, still life, and portraiture. The TTArtisan 40mm f2.8 Macro Lens features an advanced optical structure comprising eight elements in seven groups. This includes two ultra-low dispersion (UD) elements that effectively compensate for various aberrations, ensuring exceptional image quality. The lens's maximum aperture of F2.8 facilitates creative photography even in low-light conditions. The 1:1 magnification ratio enables photographers to capture life-sized images of their subjects, bringing the unseen beauty of the microcosm to life. This lens is particularly suited for macro photography, offering an equivalent focal length of 60mm and a minimum focusing distance of 6.7". This makes it perfect for capturing detailed portraits and close-up subjects. The 1:1 magnification ratio also allows for stunning insect photography, with the front inner barrel being disassemblable for convenience when shooting. The TTArtisan 40mm f2.8 Macro Lens is not just limited to macro photography. It's also an excellent choice for still-life photography, including flowers, garage kits, and anime peripherals. The equivalent focal length of 60mm and large aperture of F2.8 also make it a great choice for portrait photography, delivering dreamy bokeh effects. Constructed with a full metal body, this lens is both compact and sturdy. It offers smooth focusing and excellent build quality, making it a reliable choice for photographers. The package includes the lens, a front lens cap, a rear lens cap, an instruction manual, and a box.

Paired with my GX85 and a speedlight I've managed to take a few good pictures with this. I like it, but it has a lot of limitations. Firstly, there's some internal reflections that may ruin some of your pictures, especially when the background is dark and there's something shiny just out of the frame. If you're using a speedlight be mindful about this. Secondly this prime lens does a zooming in action when focusing, it's weird and I don't like it. Thirdly in a micro four third sensor you start to see heavy diffraction at f/11 and f/8 is a little less sharp than f/5.6, as you can imagine, that's not ideal in macro because of the tiny DOF you have even at f/11. f//8 is the sweet spot for this macro lens.

It's $99! A better macro lens will cost you $400.

It's quite a nice little lens with a very sturdy feel to it since it's all metal and glass. I mostly use it to scan my negatives and it does a good job at it, though all things considered it's not perfect and it's to be expected from a lens this price point, when I try to focus as close as possible it has a lot of glaring that I tried to remove with a lens hood to no avail.

Best price to performance.

I?m new to macro shooting, so this is my benchmark lens. Or as is often said in life, ?you never forget your first?. 

I?m very happy with the results I?ve gotten thus far and I?m certain it?s capabilities outweigh my talents in this particular rabbit-hole of photography. I?m also confident this lens, with it?s absolutely impeccable build quality and awesome tactile focus and aperture controls will help me attain greater things shooting smaller subjects, as it?s a pleasure to use such a well made, ?old school? style lens which actually encourages it?s use.  For $99.- it?s an amazing and very enjoyable piece of gear to use. 
And?.I LIKE the crazy metal  lens cap!

For less than a tank full of gas?.

The close-up power is not bad since I took a few pictures of flowers. This 40mm lens can also be used as a standard lens. Above all, it is excellent value for money.
