@markwiemels I have the Sony ZV-e10 with this exact TT Artisan lens, but mine doesn’t fit. Did you have to use a certain mount?

[@markwiemels]

@@bgb5455 yes, you need the e mount version.

[@CatboyGenius]

The photos look nice but I would have liked to of seen some video shot with it as that is in the title.

[@JasonTheGlad]

I also use a similar 7Artisans 35mm f1.4 manual lens on my ZV-e10. Makes super awesome quality pictures and videos! (Just no stabilization for videos... but it's worth the quality. I love how cheap these lenses are for the quality and how you can manually slowly focus on an image in a video...) I suggest setting up: Camera menu #5 (Setup1), page 2/3, set [Touch Operation] to [On] beforehand. When the focus mode is [Manual Focus], you can perform [Focus Magnifier] by double-tapping the area to focus on. (When you are in automatic focus mode with the kit lens, the double tapping on the screen won't work) And Peaking (making the focused area outlined with a color on your screen) is also super helpful for finding focus without the magnify feature. Camera menu #1 (Quality/Image Size1), page 10/11, Peaking settings (I suggest ...Display "on" Level "low" Color "White") Unfortunately, I made the English Song music video on my youtube channel before knowing how important lenses are, but it was recorded by an 11 year old girl with my ZV-e10 camera, so a manual lens wouldn't of worked anyways... 😂 Hope y'all like my English learning/music channel too! 🥰

[@LasseVagstherKarlsen]

I don't really get what the titles on the photos from 2:02 mean, as "ZV-E10 + lens" would be the minimum you require to get a picture, at all. It would probably be more helpful if the title said *which* lens, since you've just spoken about both the kit lens and the TTartisan lens. As such, I'm not entirely sure what lens these photos were taken with.

How did you set up that double tap to magnify? Can’t find the menu items. By the way, great videos

[@JasonTheGlad]

When taking pictures, you can magnify the image on your screen (to help focus). Camera menu #1 (Quality/Image Size1), page 10/11, Focus magnifier. But the faster method is by Camera menu #5 (Setup1), page 2/3, set [Touch Operation] to [On] beforehand. When the focus mode is [Manual Focus], you can perform [Focus Magnifier] by double-tapping the area to focus on. (When you are in automatic focus mode with the kit lens, the double tapping on the screen won't work) Peaking (making the focused area outlined with a color on your screen) is also super helpful for finding focus without the magnify feature. Camera menu #1 (Quality/Image Size1), page 10/11, Peaking settings (I suggest ...Display "on" Level "low" Color "White") I also use that feature on my ZV-e10 with my 7Artisans 35mm f1.4 manual lens.

I always love your content, just like this video. I am actually trying to figure out if I want to buy the 35 mm or the 50mm. Because I want to use it for videomaking for KZbin and social media and for portrait photography. The 50mm would be better for portrait’s and the 35 mm for videomaking. And now I am also trying to figure out if the 50mm is the best option if I want to buy this 50mm or the Sony 1.8 50 mm. (This 4 months mostly outside shooting). A difficult decision for me because I am a beginner :) .

[@markwiemels]

[@mikesrandomchannel]

I’m really loving some of these inexpensive lenses (also the Brightin Star you’ve reviewed) but still undecided because of the manual focus. I worry that it going to just add so much more time to my shooting/video making? Although I will be shooting mostly static subjects inside (video of musicians playing seated, shots of products/non-living subjects). That said, I have used a similar feature to focus magnify on Halide/iPhone/aftermarket tele with focus peaking, etc. (yep, I’ve yet to get a proper camera) and have been very happy with those shots.

[@abdullahahmaddk1639]

Agree. I use manual lens. Out of 10 takes, 4-6 of it shacky or out of focus. This lens great for still object tho.

[@KetoSimple]

would you recommend still starting with the kit lense or just go straight to a lense like this straight away? I'm looking to do product reviews, cooking videos and also shooting thumbnail photos

[@markwiemels]

Start with the kit lens for sure, it's great for the price and size, plus has image stabilisation and great autofocus.

[@KetoSimple]

@@markwiemels this lense looks pretty good, I too like that it looks cool a well as does cool stuff!

[@mawavoy]

I’m just now seeing this video, 3 months after your question, so my response may not be useful. Based on the accounts I have read about the kit lens, it is above average for kit lenses. Taking this into account, it would be useful in those cases where the light is good, weight and size are important, stabilization is useful, or you do not want to take an expensive lens on the shoot. My last observation is when acquired as a bunked kit lens the cost is low enough that at some later time the lens could be sold for little or no loss.

[@sebastian_philippinen]

Why people call lenses with low aperture a "fast lens". A big opening has nothing to do with beeing fast. For me the adjective fast can be used for shutter speed.

[@markwiemels]

It’s a funny thing, the big opening means you can use a “faster” shutter speed, that makes it a fast lens. It’s somewhat unintuitive to me too.

[@Garytyronejohnson]

Awesome thanks!

[@bastienleguyon8444]

Great vidéo! I was just asking if i should buy the zv e10 without the kit lens and buy this lens ( it’s for recording fitness video). What do you think?

[@jordiluqueca]

Thanks for the video. Does it have autofocus?

[@FastRedPonyCar]

This is discussed in the video

[@lugaroz]

Loving that you actually making a TTArtisan series (I hope) as I commented to you a few weeks ago. Totally love the video and for sure the quality are amazing, far away of the plastic things and a cheap path compare with those f1.4 or f1.2 official by Canon or Sony with autofocus, for sure. Would totally love to have you rocking the 17mm or wider, for now my wide lense is the kit from my M50 mii which I’m actually in love when I use it wisely, really looking to have an f1.4 as wide as my kit. Wishing healthiness to your family. Saludos, LGR.

[@markwiemels]

Thanks, yes, working on covering more of these type lenses, they are great.

[@ques19]

I bought this lens for taking talking head videos by myself. I used a mannequin head at about the same place I'd be sitting and focused on the head, but when I actually sit to do the video, it's not exactly in focus. I tried to do four different takes, and none of them were focused correctly. Am I missing something? Will Sony's autofocus work at all with this lens? How do I get a crispy focus with this lens when it's just me, and I have no one else to help focus on me? Thank you!

[@markwiemels]

Your idea is good, try stoping the lens down to f1.4 or more, until you get a sharp image when you are in the shot. At f0.95 the depth of area that is in focus so small that even the smallest movement will make the image out of focus.

[@martinschmidt4894]

This is a manual focus lens. No ways autofocus going to work

@markwiemels Hey, Mark! Love your vids and I just picked up this lense to go with my ZVE10. I've done videography for years, but am fairly new to photography. My issue is, when i attach the Ttartisan 50mm I get the following message "Check that a lens is mounted. For an unsupported lens, set "Release w/o lens" in the menu to "Enable." Is this just because this particular lens is manual and has no digital functionality? Thats what i was thinking but its strange then that if the lens and cam are "E mounts" i wouldnt get that message? So confused! Anyhow, really hoping you answer this and sorrry if its a stupid question. But keep up the great work, man and thanks for your time!

​@@markwiemels Hey Mark! Just wanted to thank you again for bringing this lens to my attention - and then for helping me figure it out. That is super cool of you. And you were right - This TTartisan is unbelievably cool. I still cannot believe the difference between this and the ZVE10 kit lens... it's staggering - like night and day. But its way more than just that... the f0.95 is AMAZING. And I admit, i still have a whole lot to learn about photography - but there definitely seems to be something very special about it. I just cant get over it. I want to shoot day and night. Oh also, i have watched both your videos on the 25mm and 50mm TTartisan multiple times... but any extra tips or tricks that weren't in your vids you'd maybe like to share? thanks again, Mark. Keep up the fantastic work. (= oh btw, I've been having trouble with my KZbin accounts - Ollie Welles up there is mine too =)

[@gunjitsingh2709]

50mm on an apsc body is 75mm, dont you this focal range would be a but high for videos. ?

It’s certainly not a ‘do it all’ lens, but most of the dramatic hero shots, in movies, are shot at longer focal lengths like this.

[@AdjointGaming]

What if I want to get a lot of light in for low light conditions but still don't want to have blur ?

[@markwiemels]

The only way to overcome that is to close the aperture down, to f5.6-f8 or so, put the camera on a tripod, and have a long shutter speed. That lets you get more light, by leaving the shutter open longer, but only works if the subject is not moving at all.

[@ryanpowers-tapp1588]
