TTArtisan has announced its manual focus 40mm f/2.8 Macro lens for APS-C mirrorless and Micro Four Thirds. Despite being an APS-C lens and only manual focus, there’s no EF-M or APS-C Z mount for this one (not yet anyway, although I hear EF-M might be on the way), just Fuji X and APS-C Sony E mounts. The lens offers a minimum focus distance of 17mm with 1:1 magnification.
Update: October 25th – It’s now available in Nikon Z flavour.
Although the lens was only officially announced today, it’s been in the hands of reviewers for a little while. Christopher Frost got his hands on one and took it for a spin on his Sony A5100. It’s a pretty ugly looking lens, although the images don’t look half bad, especially when you consider the lens costs less than $115.
