I have a TTArtisans lense, for Nikon 27mm f/2.8 APSC and the 12-28mm for the Nikon Z DX/APSC, the 10-20mm f/4 for Sony and the 10-18 for the Canon in EF-S and RF-S. Cheers! New type of tea for you to try. Hot Buttered Rum. Rum warmed with some melted butter and a Cinnamon Stick for that extra flavor. So Good and Sweet!

Sometimes, we get so focused (no pun intended) on technical superiority, that we forget about enjoying the process of making photos altogether. Great review as always, Mark!

I just want to add, that it solves many problems for those of us using a micro 4/3 camera for indoor use. This is my new office studio video lens. Great economy lens if you do not need autofocus and your camera is on a tripod.

I've got this one on my wish list on Amazon. I have a Sony FE TTartisan 50mm f1.4 and a Sony APS-C 7artisans 60mm f2.8 1:1 macro and I love these inexpensive, yet high quality manual focus lenses. The full metal construction resembles the best quality vintage lenses and manual focus is just like the old days of film. Not a problem at all in the situation where you have time to frame your shot and focusing is actually a pleasure.

Sigma is the 2nd lens manufacturing for sony cameras after sony itself, their lenses are on another league. But for price this options are quite good. I have a few manual lenses, but autofocus for photography is a plus, even more if you travel and sometimes are by yourself wothout noone to take the camera

There's something magical about fully manual photography (and video too). Being a cinematographer I've been on a constant hunt for the best character lenses, ideally in matched sets. And best of all, these TT Artisan and other vintage lenses they tend to copy sometimes, are SMALL. It makes for such a well balanced tool in your hand, compared to the modern, optically "perfect" but HUGE and character-LESS lenses of the big manufacturers. Not to send you down the rabbit hole (well, maybe a little bit!), but try getting your hands on some of the old, vintage Olympus OM primes which are TINY but are f2 across some insane focal lengths like 21mm (not cheap now mind you). And of course they are full frame and easily adapted to mirrorless camera systems. Minolta also made some excellent, small lenses back in the late 70s. And coming back to modern Chinese lens designs, I recently bought the Dulens APO Mini Primes for cinema work and they are also very small for being true cinema lenses, as well as being really good value and best of all, they have the character of vintage lenses. The next few years are going to be very interesting as the Chinese continue to get better at this game.... :)

I like the ZV-E10 because it does have electronic stabilization and the option to use gyro data. But the a6100 nudges it in the photo department because it has that EVF. Since I'm more of a video shooter - I go with the ZV-E10

What lens would you recommend for the Zve10 for filming art videos… hands only on the desk? I would use my phone but th Audio is lot great. So I’ve been using the Zve10 on a mount pointing down at my desk. Sometimes the autofocus going in and out ruins the video, it’s like it’s bouncing constantly. Tried using manual focus and it gets blurry. Using the kit lense that came with it. Is there a better one you would recommend?

Ia this the best rectilinear ultrawide lens then?

How do use this lens in catalyst browse or any other manual lens?

10 mm is great when it comes to crops for stabilization modes. I made the mistake of using a 24mm on full frame. Nobody needs to see my face that close. The wider the better.

Hey Mark, I've been following your contents for like a year or so and it'd mean a lot if u help me choose between fuji xs10 and zve10 for photography mainly I am in love with the fuji recipes but the affordability and lens options for zve10 is just next level. You have a few videos on these camera comparisons but I'd really like your opinion with the fuji recipe and zve10 affordability in mind

Hi Can we shoot videos of properties and move the camera left to right will it become blur....???

Vignetting and soft corners are just an invitation to shoot square format. Win win.

Pls make a comparison with Sony 11mm & Sony 10 - 18mm f4. Tq

I'm going to ask a totally beginner question. I'm going to assume that on my a6600 I would have to shoot on manual? I could not use auto shutter speed or auto iso correct?

I was looking for a wide angle lens to try to get some photos like Katsuhiro Ohkuchi's "Miniature Size Landscape" series. Wish me luck. 😅

The 11 is fantastic, with in camera corrections, it doesn’t have much distortion so it’s also not fisheye like. The 11 is much more expensive, but is a fantastic autofocus lens and has an f1.8. If the 11 is in the budget, I would get that.

I think the Nisi 9mm F2.8 is hard to beat. It is built like a tank and is weatherproof. Of course it's not F2.0, but all the advantages of TTartisan only seem to start from 2.8. As you can see on Christopher Frost's KZread channel, the Nisi is much sharper than the TTartisan and has much less color fringing. Nevertheless, thanks for the review.

Seems a bit late for me. I already have the Laowa 9mm f/2.8 for many years, but I’m selling it because I recently upgraded to the Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 auto-focus zoom with in-camera corrections for distortion and vignetting. The Sigma is a very nice lens, and much more versatile, especially when you don’t want quite so wide of a composition all that often. With 10-18mm, I can use it as a carry-around lens for the day, with or without another lens in my pocket.
