The best budget lens ever? | TT Artisan 50mm f/1.2

It is indeed a great lens, I use it too on my X-Pro2 and quite frankly, for the price, it delivers ! AS you said one should avoid to shoot wide open, but other than that focusing is easy with the help of the x-pro2 focus peaking, I love the fluidity of the focusing ring ! And it looks great on the X-Pro2.

I totally agree, might have to look at what other lenses they do for Fuji X!

@@MattJNeale I recently purchased (60€ !!) their 25mm f2 for Fuji, manual too, same spirit, light, pancake-like, I mostly use it at f5.6, and focusing is as smooth as the 50mm.

Nice. Their lenses are great value for money. They actually sent me a 17mm as well as the 50, I'll make another video about that one in future. I haven't used it yet, so I can't say how it is!

picture quality and character wise, which did you like better (i guess if you used both on digital). the ttartisan or the old canon 50mm

(1:45) Just get an UV or any protective filter. Those are cheap and it's better to have scratched filter than scratched front element of a lens. Just saying...

Good advice, thanks
