TTArtisan 50mm f/1.4 

Explore the TTArtisan 50mm f/1.4 L-Mount lens. Full-frame, manual focus, and f/1.4 aperture for stunning images. Shop now for exceptional quality!

Discover the power and precision of the 50mm f/1.4 ASPH Lens for Leica L, meticulously designed for high-resolution cameras. This high-quality lens captures every intricate detail in your photography, thanks to its exceptional optical design and special lenses. Experience the real world in a more vivid and detailed way, as this lens is capable of supporting cameras with resolutions up to 60MP. The f/1.4 large aperture is a standout feature, allowing you to enjoy a dreamy background blur and beautiful bokeh effects. This large aperture not only enhances your visual enjoyment but also provides a unique photography experience. Low light conditions are no longer a challenge with the f/1.4 large aperture. It allows more light to enter the camera, facilitating correct exposure and high-definition images even in dimly lit environments. The 50mm standard focal length is a versatile choice for various photography styles. It's perfect for portrait photography, offering minimal distortion and no compression of frame space. Additionally, it excels in capturing small objects, with the large aperture boosting creative space and depth of field. Despite its powerful features, this professional lens maintains a compact size, making it an ideal companion for your outdoor photography adventures. The aperture ring is stepped with the right amount of resistance and click, marked on full stops from f/1.4 to f/16 for easy and precise adjustments. Experience the reliable and durable 50mm f/1.4 ASPH Lens for Leica L, a product of Tartisan's commitment to producing high-quality lenses. Whether you're an old school manual focus lover or a modern photographer seeking versatility, this lens is a definite improvement over any standard kit lens.

I wanted a fast prime in the standard range for my Panasonic S5 and manual focus is not a problem when shooting still-life, which is most of my subjects. 
This lens is quite a pleasure to use with nicely-damped long focus-throw of about 150 to 160 degrees.  The size and placement of focus ring and the lightly-clicked aperture ring make them easy to use.

Optically this lens performs very well and its character can provide some advantages for different subjects.
Wide open there is a soft 'glow' with subdued contrast and softened detail, this could be a plus when shooting certain types of portraits.  The effect quickly dissipates, however, and by f/2.0 it is mostly gone, contrast and sharpness are good across the frame except in the FF corners.
Once closed down to f/4 thru 8 you are getting really good detail, contrast and definition like any modern lens can provide and when you have it closed right down to f/16 you can get some decent if wide-spoked sun-stars.

The other aspect I like about this lens is the quality of the bokeh. Unlike many modern, over-corrected and very sharp lenses that have 'soap-bubble' bokeh, this lens provides a much smoother look that I prefer.

I've only had it out for a little bit of shooting in one day but I can already tell that this lens will be a keeper in my L-mount kit and I am looking forward to doing some close-up and portrait shots with it when I have a chance.  Meanwhile I will try provide some example images I shot on a recent walk.

My only 'improvement' I will do is to get a plastic pinch-style lens cap for it.  The lovely push-on metal front cap looks great but for functionality, convenience and reduced risk of damaging the front element when reinstalling the cap, plastic will replace the metal one when I'm using it.

A modern MF fast 50 with some character and capability

Great lens for the cost. I bought for my Lumix S5 and it fits perfectly. Great bokeh/shallow depth of field at f 1.4, 2.0, 2.8, even at 4... Image looks sharp on my 4k monitor. Also, I did not mind the manual focus/aperture at all... I am old school anyway, so it takes me back to earlier days of filmmaking when there was no autofocus. Not difficult to adapt to. Definite improvement over the kit lens I have.

Great full-frame lens for the price

Every now and then a screaming deal just sneaks up on you. Even when reviewers favorably report on a product, one learns to temper one?s expectations. So, based on overwhelmingly positive reviews, I took a chance on this fast nifty fifty, thinking even if it is half as good as promised, that would be cool. Happy to report that the favorable on-line reviews understate, if anything, just how good this lens performs. On both the Leica SL2-S and the M7 it produces results better in all aspects than the non-apo Sumilux, especially in overall sharpness and microcontrast. A truly outstanding lens, and, yes, a screaming deal.
