REVIEW: TTArtisan 35mm F/1.4 Tilt (APS-C)

Introduction

TTArtisan previously released a full-frame 50mm tilt lens, designed to control focus to a thin slice of the scene, or extend it for deeper focus. It’s also fun to experiment with, especially for creating a playful miniature effect. In May 2025, they followed up with an APS-C equivalent: the 35mm f/1.4 tilt lens, offered at a budget-friendly price. Of course, it can also serve as a fast f/1.4 standard lens. Let’s take a closer look!

REVIEW: TTArtisan AF 40mm f/2

TTARTISAN 40mm f/2 on Nikon Z7IIIntroduction

TTArtisan is trying to catch up in the autofocus lens market, having previously focused mainly on manual lenses while other companies gained ground in AF development. Their latest release is a full-frame 40mm f/2 lens—a popular focal length with a bright aperture and an ace up its sleeve: a dedicated aperture ring, something not all AF lenses in this class offer. Let’s take a closer look.

Review: TTArtisan 35mm T/2.1 – Dual-Bokeh Cine Lens

Introduction

The TTArtisan 35mm T2.1 Cine Dual-Bokeh is a unique lens. We rarely review cine lenses, but this one stands out. Over the past few years, TTArtisan has introduced innovative and daring lens designs. Their latest creation features a unique ability to control the bokeh character—an intriguing function with some unusual behaviour. Some will love its distinctive look, while others may find it unappealing.

On paper, it was very appealing to me, so I agreed to review it. Let’s take a closer look!

Review: TTArtisan AF 35mm f/1.8 ED II (APS-C)

Introduction

It has been about a year since TTArtisan introduced the AF 35mm f/1.8, and now it’s time to release version 2 of that lens. I liked the first version when I reviewed it and enjoyed taking pictures with it. They have tried to improve the lens since last year and therefore we can see a couple of changes, but have they succeeded?

TTArtisan 7.5mm f/2 Pro Fisheye – Ultra Wide for Dramatic Views and Ultra Confined Places

Introduction

Fisheye lenses offer the widest field of view among all lenses. A non-circular fisheye provides a 180° diagonal field of view, something no rectilinear lens can remotely achieve (a 14mm lens gives you 114°, a 10mm lens 130°, and a 9mm 135°). Fisheye lenses are especially useful when you want to capture as much as possible in tight, confined spaces or wide, open areas. They also offer a unique and exciting perspective that can be creatively exploited without restrictions.

If used skillfully, fisheye lenses can produce images that look relatively normal in many scenarios, though not all. The TTArtisan 7.5mm is a non-circular fisheye lens designed for APS-C cameras, but it can also be mounted on full-frame cameras, where it produces circular fisheye images (180° both diagonally, horizontally, and vertically). Let’s take a closer look!
