This is a great video on this lens Phil! I purchased the lens and took delivery today (2/1/23) and it's everything and a bag of chips and it looks and feels great on my Zfc! Nice and sharp! If anyone is considering this lens........get one!
Thank you for sharing. I have been eying this lens for a couple of months because it fits the aesthetics of the Z fc and for its bright aperture. Now, I'm sold :)
I had my eye on this lense. I'm a beginner photographer with a interest in street photography so far and maybe do some portraits as well. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it. Keep shooting bro.
I really liked that panorama of the bridge. Great detail! That motion blur pan was really good also! Looks like you definitely got your money’s worth with that lens!
You beat me to TH-cam with your review!!! 😂 mine drops Saturday. Lol. Thank you for the shout out!!! You da man!!!👍📸 The lens is really nice though. I love mine.
I moved mine up because I needed Z fc content on a Wednesday where I have been releasing Z fc stuff and I didn't have any in the pipe. Your unboxing live was a pretty good bit of time ago. I'm excited about your video Saturday and our possible eventual TTArtisans 35 1.4 collab! :)
@@davidsaylors This one is a keeper for sure. It’s definitely more of a David style lens than a Phil style lens, but I really like it and the results I’ve gotten with it so far.
After I bought my first TT Artisan lens I was so blown away I bought five more, both Fuji mount and full-frame for Leica. With an M to Leica L adaptor (TT Artisan's adaptors are beautiful) the 47MP images from my S1R are unbelievable. Thanks for a fun review and greetings from Ellijay. I am looking forward to doing some street photography in Chattanooga soon.
Great review Phil. Looks like a good budget lens for portraits. The silver and retro look matches the Zfc really well. Sounded like you had a cold, hope you’re ok. Thanks for sharing the look at the lens,, cheers 🍻 👍🙏
Thanks, Adrian! It's a neat little lens for sure. I used a different mic setup than my normal and the sound wasn't too good but I didn't want to reshoot so I just let it go. LOL
I was really surprised about the image quality of the in focus and out of focus areas. I'm an auto-focus guy but I did find some joy working with this lens.
Great video, thanks. I’m new to photography. I’ve just bought a z50 and want to learn travel, street photo or landscape shooting with manual lens. Would you recommend TTartisan 50mm or 35mm? Should I also buy a filter or hood? Any advice? Thank you.
Looks a great little lens Phil. The colours, detail and bokeh look decent on your example images. I guess you just have to get used to using manual focus and exposure!
Bonjour Phil. Merci pour vos vidéos avec lesquelles j'apprends toujours quelque chose. J'ai cet objectif et je confirme que pour 80 € (en France) le résultat est largement équivalent à d'autres modèles bien plus onéreux. Je lui ai ajouté un pare soleil rectangulaire qui lui donne un look "Leica". Juste pour le fun.
@@bernardrafin5313 Bonsoir. Je suis très content de l'objectif en question. Le piqué est au rendez-vous, il est lumineux. Vu son prix, c'est un achat que l'on ne peut pas regretter. J'ai un parc optique conséquent en montures F que j'utilise avec mon D750 et ce TTartisan est largement aussi qualitatif que mon 28 ou 35mm sur mon FF. (Du coup je vais m'en séparer ainsi que de la bague Ftz). Pour le pare soleil, c'est un chinois, un peu cheap en qualité mais il fait le job. Il est vendu avec une énorme vis en laiton disgracieuse pour l'immobiliser que j'ai dès le 1er jour remplacé par une vis noire chc beaucoup plus discrète. Du coup, j'en ai acheté aussi un pour le 16-50 du kit. Je ne sais pas si j'ai le droit de mettre de lien ici alors je vous donne la référence : XJPJ-FX-39MM-G01 Google fera le reste (il existe pour plusieurs diamètres)
The lens delivers amazingly sharp images. Sensational! The panoramic image is rich in detail and beautiful. Congratulations!
Thank you, Erik. I'm happy with the lens so far!
💖 amazing shots.. such a great eye you have in shooting those pics
Thank you very much!

Just bought this little lens for my Zfc arriving next week.Great review and beautiful photos.
I really like this lens. They also make a 23mm lens for the Zfc, I'm not nearly as happy with it.
Thank you for sharing. I have been eying this lens for a couple of months because it fits the aesthetics of the Z fc and for its bright aperture. Now, I'm sold :)
Thank you!
I have the Nikon zfc and bought TT ARTISAN 17 mm f 1.4 and I love this lense, I want get the 35 mm f1.4
I really like this 35 but I also bought the 23 and I’m not very fond of it.

Thank you, Patricia! It’s a neat little lens.
how to change magnify & assign to other dial/button?
You really have a talent on photo. bravo.
Thank you! That is very kind.
Great stuff Phil. Looks like a great budget lens
Thanks, Mike!

Nice review. Might be a good choice for astro.
Thank you, Leon! That's a really good point about astro!
I have this lens for the Canon M6 Mark II. Big fan of TTArtisans. I am also in the Chattanooga area! Great review!
Thank you, Zach! I just ordered their 23 mm 1.4. It should arrive sometime next week.
Can’t wait for the review 👍

I just bought the APSC 23mm 1.4 so my collection is growing as well. Thanks for watching!
Which lenses have you bought 1-5 ?
You made me decided to get one. Starting to get into a fc camera. Thanks Phil.
Thank you, I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you! The 35 is the most versatile. I didn't get a hood for my 35 but either way will be fine.
@@PhilThach thanks, Phil.
Hi Phil. You took some really nice photographs. Just how do TTArtisan make lenses this good so cheap?
Thanks, Clare. I honestly don't know how they produced such a nice little lens for such a reasonable price.
Nice video Phil it's great to see an affordable lens for nikon z for a change the nikon z s line lenes are very expensive
I agree! The Z glass is really high especially the S line Z glass. Thank you, Keith!
Looks a great little lens Phil. The colours, detail and bokeh look decent on your example images. I guess you just have to get used to using manual focus and exposure!
Thank you!
The panorama is most excellent. And wow, 17 shot handheld.
Thank you, Ron! :)
The lens looks great on the Zfc and
that is an incredible price. To top it all of it looks like a great lens. The photos from look great.
At this price, I was really expecting the lens to be junk but I was very pleasantly surprised. I think David is very happy with his as well.
@@PhilThach He is very happy and the people at the Leica store were amazed how smooth it focus and shifted.
@@cubanrum That's awesome!
Bonjour Phil pour mon z 50 cette objectif serait il parfait?Merci
Oui, cet objectif fonctionnerait avec le Z50
@@PhilThach OK Merci pour votre réponse
Do you calculate the distance between you and your subject when using f1.4 or you leave it at infinity?
I focus manually using the EVF. I do not use zone focus.
Looks like a nice lens for only 70 bucks. It’s design reminds me of some of my small Olympus primes.
It is certainly the cheapest news lens I've ever purchased! I'd like to see those Olympus primes at some point.

Phil, I am with you; I am an auto focus shooter. Even though this lens is inexpensive, I will not be purchasing it.
That's completely understandable, Cesar. I prefer auto-focus in most situations too. Thanks for watching!
👍👍👍
