Description — TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4
The TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4 is a wide-angle prime lens designed for APS-C mirrorless camera systems. Its f/1.4 maximum aperture gives photographers meaningful flexibility when light levels drop, while also enabling selective focus work that separates subjects from their surroundings. At 210g, the lens stays light enough to complement the compact form factor that mirrorless cameras are known for.
The 43mm filter thread is a practical size that keeps the cost of accessories like polarizers and ND filters manageable. Focusing is fully manual, making this lens well-suited to deliberate, controlled shooting styles. It is available in Sony E, Fujifilm X, Canon EF-M, and Micro Four Thirds mounts, offering wide cross-system compatibility for APS-C shooters.
There is no image stabilization, so steady shooting technique or body-based stabilization is recommended for slower exposures.

Does this lens have autofocus?+
No — the TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4 is a manual focus lens only. There is no autofocus mechanism, so focus must be set by hand using the focus ring. This is a key consideration for photographers who rely on fast or automatic focusing.
How heavy is the TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4?+
The lens weighs 210g, making it a notably lightweight option for a fast wide-angle prime. This low weight pairs well with compact APS-C mirrorless bodies for travel or everyday carry.
What filter size does this lens use?+
The TTArtisan 23mm f/1.4 uses a 43mm filter thread. This is a relatively small and affordable filter size, making it cost-effective to add polarizing, UV, or neutral density filters.
Does the lens have image stabilization?+
No, the lens does not include image stabilization. Photographers shooting handheld in low light will need to rely on their camera body's in-body stabilization (if available) or use appropriately fast shutter speeds.
