Yes!!! Absolutely it is. I throw this on when I want to have some fun walking around using film recipes for the day. I always look back and am amazed how much I like this lens when I’m using it that way. Has a touch of nostalgic vibe to it.

Best photo examples I’ve seen utilizing this lens. If you can get around the wide open vignetting (I crop most of the time anyway) you can’t beat this lens for the price. It’s currently the only one I have for my xt30ii and makes for a nice compact EDC. Great review; clear and concise with just enough vibes…subscribed!

Nice review and sample images. I bought the XF 27 WR but then also purchased this TTA version. Immediately returned the XF and kept the TTA, mainly because of the XF’s noisy and inconsistent autofocus. 3rd party manufacturers are really stepping up their game lately for the Fuji lineup.

I’m really glad I’ve seen this comment after watching a few videos of comparisons it was kind of back and forth but actually reading a comment I think I’ll stick with the TTA and pick up their new 35mm af which would cost around the same price as the xx wr 27

My experience exactly, two fuji and two failures … it’s a lens that just isn’t reliable … and that’s not just me … many friends jam have had same experience down the years to. If the TT fail after a couple of years I’ll bin it and get another, I can live with its minor faults

Great video, I bought this a few weeks ago and love it, I've coupled it to my X-M1 pocket rocket and in BW its delivered some fab street images. Definite keeper. I've had two fuji 27mm pancakes and sorry fuji but both have broken with AF problems after little use. This little lens has some quirks especially useful in street pics I take and for the money is outstanding and fun.

@@hunterhart1 Some reviewers claimed both lenses suffer from strong vignetting, which is a blatant lie. True is the auto focus on the tta is a dream, but stoped working after a very very minor touch in the subway. I am sure the Fuji auto focus by wire is constructed that way for repair reasons. TT wrote to me that I can throw the lens away, very good for the environment? So there are several reasons to save cash for a much better lens. One reason is service and repairability. After three days I can tell the fuji 27mm 2.8 is a true workhorse… fun fun fun….

A bump here, sorry there… and the fuji 27mm still works… exactly the same situation and the tt artisan stoped working…. the service of tt advised me to throw the lens in the trash. This is also a case of non sustainable products which is bad for pur environment we love to take pictures of… this was my last TT Artisan. My impression is the fuji lenses are workhorses.

I just have the 18-50 2.8 zoom lens for now and considering this together with the Viltrox 27 1.2 to cover the 23-35 focal range. Sure it's both the same focal length and I could also get a 23 1.4 and a 35 f2 or vice versa, but this is so much cheaper and gives me one image quality monster and one really light snapshot lens for situations where you don't want to scare people with a bigger lens. It's under €700 for both together, a single 23/33 1.4 by Fuji is more than that
@hunterhart1 3 ай бұрын
It’s pretty incredible how cheap these lenses are huh? I think that’s not a bad idea if you need something discreet. I wouldn’t try comparing this with the Viltrox though because….

I really enjoyed this review! I love that you can use this lens to achieve a film effect. I recently bought an X-T2 but I’m worried about buying this lens now that you’ve mentioned the AF is a bit delayed on it and the X-T2. Would the AF on the TTartisan combined with the X-T2 be too slow? And if so, am I better off buying the Fuji 27mm lens? I’m sorry if this is a dumb question.
@hunterhart1 Ай бұрын
@@sashap3585 it’s not a dumb question, honestly they’re both a bit slower compared to other lenses. If I were to pick any 27 mm I’d get the Viltrox 27mm 1.2 but it’s larger so… pancake, I’d probably go with the TT art if you’re looking for a film look and compact size. Hope that helps?
