Battle of budget category 56mm lenses.

[@Caleb-c9t]

I’ve been shooting with the TTArtisan 56mm f/1.8 on my XT4 for a few months now. The lens produces stunningly sharp results in the center, which is perfect for portraits . Autofocus has been accurate even when tracking subjects in video mode. Definitely worth the money.

[@krio.]

Just the comparison we needed. Very short and straight to the point!

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thanks! appreciate your feed back.

[@Sotangy247]

Great comparison. I've just bought the TTartisan .. my first lens by them, and to be honest I'm very impressed and used it on a music video shoot today. I'll be also making use of it shooting both weddings I'm doing this week

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thanks and have a successful video shoot. cheers

[@soumyamukherji]

I liked your crisp video. So much practical information without any unnecessary fluff.Another point for TTArtisan as the lens is available on their website for $125 at the moment. You have a new subscriber :)

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thank you man. Appreciate it.

[@Mamo878]

Short and sweet comparison. Thanks!

[@FujiFanBoys]

thanks

[@BrightExposure]

Viltrox is the best out there. Even better than some Japanese Brands.

[@Dvlx1]

I was about to buy the Viltrox until I saw this video and thankfully you compared the minimum focus distance. Now I'll be purchasing the TTartisan.

[@FujiFanBoys]

Enjoy this lens.

[@adverspace]

That was a great review, I really like this photo at 2:01, I am looking forward to buy this for product videography. I am curious if I can use this for smooth focusing, like if I move my object on a table from 2 mtrs to 0.5m, will it hold up the focus?

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thank you. I am not certain as I have none done that. Most of the shot in my IG in last one month ar shot with this lens. Cheers

[@adverspace]

@@FujiFanBoys okay... A link to your insta please.

[@TasKarp]

Very good comparison. Thank you. I ended up ordering the viltrox as I have the 56 Fuji but wanted something to complete my street kit (lightweight etc) and didn’t want to shell out for the fujicron 50 f2.

[@fifi_starr_vlogs]

how about in video can u do samples? tyia

[@monoverse735]

I just bought the TTartisan 56mm 4 days ago, yes it is a really great lens, fast auto focus, the bokeh result is better, though i need more space to bring it in my bag cause it's larger.

[@FujiFanBoys]

good reason to buy a new bag. Just kidding. Enjoy this great lens. Cheers

[@LukeWorrall-k6w]

Nice video. I just bought the TTArtisan, definitely great value for the price. Really sharp for portraits even at f1.8.

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thanks for sharing.

[@jonathangerry4255]

Great video man! I need some perspective comparison for these lens. Thank you.

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thank you.

[@WaliyopiNursulaeman]

sangat membantu compare nya...bisa beli salah satu. 👍

[@npdady]

Thanks for the camparison... I've been debating between these 2 as I want a lens to pair with my X-A20. Will probably go with viltrox due to size and weight.

[@FujiFanBoys]

Good match with your X-A20.

[@i_read_bad_reviews]

great style my guy. it would have took another youtuber 45 minutes for the same amount of info. thanks!

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thank you for the encouragement. Appreciate it.

[@EconBobWong]

Been waiting for this the last few days 😂

[@FujiFanBoys]

Thanks. Also a a very last minute production. Ask a good friend yesterday and spend an hour doing it. Hahaha. how you find it useful. Cheers and have a great weekend.

[@andreaskurn]

Nice. I just ordered my TTartisan 56mm

[@FujiFanBoys]

Nice. Thanks for sharing. I am sure you will enjoy this lens.

[@quanghungpham269]

Absolutely love this video! I have been wondering these two for a long time now! I'm going for the Viltrox. How about the Yongnuo 50mm f1.8?

[@FujiFanBoys]

if I have to choose; its still the TTartisan for me.

[@olafkliemt1145]

but who needs sharp corners goes for the Viltrox ;-)

[@jonuiuc]

I was looking at buying on of these but then the 1.4 55mm Meike came up, now I dunno lol. Its not really the max apeture, but I really like having the apertrure ring on a lens for x mount.

[@FujiFanBoys]

its a question of what you need. F1.4 is nice; it's optically better? If you like the aperture; please go for it. For me I still love the TTartisan F1.8. Because I could shoot closer.

[@or_not-o8i]

interested how they compare with the 1.2 from fuji

[@FujiFanBoys]

Can't be compared. The fujifilm XF56mm F1.2 WR is another level up in IQ. Also its cost a lot more.

[@or_not-o8i]

@@FujiFanBoys I have the original 56, not the wr. curious because it's very old already.. I'm sure that colors are better and probably not less sharp at 1.8 anyway I use it on old bodies and probably wouldn't noticed any different

[@tkphotosz]

Interesting comparison. But how would these 2 lenses compare with the Sigma 56mm F1.2?

[@FujiFanBoys]

you mean Sigma 56mm F1.4? its defintely a better lens.

[@tkphotosz]

@@FujiFanBoysYes. My apologies for the error.

[@manichaean1888]

And now Meike and 7artisans come to the fray ))

[@FujiFanBoys]

the more the merrier for all of us. Having option is always good. cheers.

[@Fumanchuisnotdead]

Estoy muy interesado en comprar uno de ellos, pero aun no tengo decidido cual de ellos. Si fuera WR y pequeño y ligero ...

[@youcefHachemiBouzid]

What about the build quality?

[@FujiFanBoys]

average for this class of lens.

[@youcefHachemiBouzid]

@@FujiFanBoys thank you to take time for an answer.

[@lightede]

Would you choose the TT Artisan 56mm or the Fujifilm 50mm F2 for a 50mm-ish lens for lightweight overseas travel?

[@FujiFanBoys]

When it comes to choosing lightweight lenses; it's the easiest. which ever is the lightest, we go for it. For me I won't choose any as I have no issue with a bit of weight. I usually go to XF56mm F1.2 WR. As for TTartisan or Fujifilm; I would go for Fujifilm 50mm F2.

[@jlee104]

If you can afford it to fuji

[@lightede]

@@FujiFanBoys I have the 50mm f2. 56mm 1.2WR and also the Viltrox 75mm f1.2. Would you take the 56mm or 75mm for overseas portraits?

[@FujiFanBoys]

@@lightede personally; the 56mm F1.2 WR. Sure an amazing portraits lens.

[@allhall0ws]

viltrox just confirmed with me via comment section that they will be bringing their 56mm f1.7 to sony e mount soon! should i get the viltrox or the ttartisan for my zv-e10? i mostly do video (low light) but wanted something for portrait stuff, not sure which one to get

[@FujiFanBoys]

Basically they are both good lenses. Viltrox is smaller in size. As for TTartisan it's faster and could shoot closer. and that is important to me.

[@sanu4frndzs]

Viltrox is sharp from corner to corner from f1.7 where as TTartisan is sharp from corner to corner at around f2.8

[@FujiFanBoys]

thanks for sharing.

[@studioshagrasyiid]

the comparison we needed for cheapskate like me hahhah TQ can u do 1 more comparison, eye focus in moving video shoot? Thanks

[@FujiFanBoys]

I will try and update you. cheers

[@chewkenghong]

The lens hood of ttartisan nailed it for me. When I first started 20 years ago, shoot only all good nikkors cos image quality matters n then cheap lens really were terrible. Now lens have become so so good...even budget. Not it's abt getting a good image..wo a good image. Quality has no meaning...after 20 years😂

[@Noahphotography-n9l]

Happy with my choice to go with TTArtisan, the metal construction feels superior to Viltrox.

[@FujiFanBoys]

Enjoy your TTartisan...

[@alvin948a]

I like your boxing gloves. 🥊🥊

[@FujiFanBoys]

good eye! now you know this video is sponsored by Decathlon! LOL.

[@CocoKoi321]

COMPARE IT TO THE 100$ YONGNUO 50MM

[@roymichaeldeanable]

The TTArtisan is 50 quid approx

[@camstanley]

where've you seen it that low?
