?? The 7Artisans 35 mm F0. 95 is a lens designed for cameras APS-C which aims to be light, compact and economical (price under 300 without sacrificing brightness aperture and bokeh effect. ??

7Artisans 35 mm F0. 95 is the new lens designed by the Chinese manufacturer for sensor cameras in the format APS-C . It is an economical solution that focuses on the wide aperture and the equivalent focal length of (approx.) 50 mm.

The technical characteristics of the new 7Artisans 35 mm F0. 95 show an optical design consisting of 11 elements divided into 8 groups. To improve image quality there are also two ED (very low dispersion) lenses that allow for greater brightness and a bokeh effect detail.

The diaphragm has a maximum aperture of f / 0. 95 and minimum of f / 16 and is made up of 10 slats, with the adjustment ring which is of type “declicked” . The minimum focusing distance is 37 cm.

As often happens with this kind of lenses, to reduce production costs, production complexity, dimensions and weight there is no automatic focus but only manual. Furthermore, there are no optical image stabilization systems.

The viewing angle is equal to 43 ° and filters with a diameter of 52 mm are supported. The total weight is 369 grams with a structure made entirely of metal (giving a better feeling of resistance). On the Facebook page of the manufacturer there are some sample images to evaluate the quality of the shots. The new 7Artisans 35 mm F0. 95 is compatible with Sony E, Fujifilm X, Canon M, Nikon Z, and MFT mounts. The price instead is approximately 250 EUR.
