Thanks for your feedback, and your kind words! :D

I still would choose Voigtlander ultron 27mm for it's size advantage

Thanks! I actually like the ttartisan more then the fuji,. the fuji is kind of clinical and boring. The fuji got quite nice when my uv filter got dirty though 😂

​@@Kim_Alexander I'm on sony e-mount, so didn't have the fuji option even if I'd wanted it, but I have been extremely impressed with the ttartisan. Surprisingly fast af, good build quality, acceptably sharp, and it definitely has some nice character. Any time I am traveling to another city, it's the only lens I bring with me.

@@alexeipg cool I got an old nex7 that I might review here but at the moment I just have vintage glas to it. havent decided what I should pick up to it or even if I'm going to review it. I have already made review of the the Ttartisan 27mm so don't makes much sense to buy it to and old. Sony that I will get rid of eventually

Thanks for your comment! I had that Lumix 20mm lens for my GM1, and I hope to get my hands on a GM5 eventually with the same lens. My journey with the 40mm field of view got a rough start with the Fuji 27mm. I bought it new and sold it off after just a week. Later, I bought the TTArtisan for a trip and fell in love with the field of view. It took some time to get used to, but now it resonates very well with me. So much so that I have a video about the focal length on my to-do list. Since then, I bought the Fuji 27mm again and kind of came to like it, mostly for its weather resistance. But I think it's slightly sterile and the TTArtisan renders a more interesting image. When I was done with this review, I realised that I didn't say much about flaring. But that's mostly because I didn't have any issues nor found any creatively nice flares from it, though the latter might exist. The only situation where I had multiple lenses on a shoot was on a job for a client with mixed light, flash, and daylight. I delivered some 35mm f2 or even 50mm f2 images and some images made with the 27mm. I didn't think about any specific differences in colors or such when editing those images. That pro badge truly means something; it's a lens that doesn't give you any issues.

Easy to understand, i never tried the sigma, but the Viltrox is great!

the 23 is good but the 27 is in a completely new leauge. The 27 is high end level gear the 23 is not. I made a video about the 23 as well. It's I lens that I like. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kK5ldLae37q4cWQ.htmlsi=R3OIp0zKM0XdMWV7

27mm is surprisingly versetile, and faces looks great to. Personally when I use a 23 i sometimes struggle to capture some wider screens on the street to a degree where I would have to crop. Mostly since I get discoverd when I'm close enough. 27mm just fills that gap so well. When Im disoverd I ofen end up talking with some person witch eventually leads up a portrait. Witch again give the precence of a wide lens - yet slightly more balanced lens then a wider. I'm have an upcoming video idea tackling about why 27mm or 40 is the true nifty fifthy.

I kind of want to say poor you! But trading one good lens for another good lens is okay, especially for that price! I hope Viltrox will release more 1.2 lenses with the same pro badge. A 50mm or 56mm would make sense. But it's also fun that they do their own thing. Perhaps we will see a 40mm f1.2. What they are doing with this lenses and the price is some next gen stuffs!

Funkar bra på alla Fuji kameror, personligen tycker jag att den för sig bäst på de lite större kamerorna som xt och xh serien då man får ett bra grepp att hålla i. Håller helt klart med om att Fuji är roligare. Jag jobbade med Sony på reklambyrån, bra arbetshäst men inte så kul. Det roligaste var 50mm f1. 2 gillar den optiken riktigt mycket för det kommersiella. För privat, gatufoto och redaktionella jobb vill jag ha lite vidare. Till vissa jobb som mode jobb eller där det vart lite unik karaktär på jobbet så körde jag ibland Fuji, mest för att att jagkubde få till det stuket jag ville ha ttre med fujis färgåtergivning. Viltrox 27 är ju en aps-c optik så det är ju mer logiskt att köra den på din Fuji snarare än Sony. Låter ju också som att du redan har Nice optik till Sony. Så denna på xt4 skulle ge dig ett verktyg med möjlighet till ett annat uttryck än vad du har med den på sony.

@@Kim_Alexander tack för svar ja fujis färger är ju suveräna deras simuleringar man kan ändra så mycket får se längre fram om det blir en xt5a kanske ha det gött 👍

Absolutely, I agree! Brick walls and charts are great if you're secretly training to be an architect or aiming to become the next wallpaper mogul, but for photography? Not so much! I’d rather see how a lens handles real-life chaos. Personally, I also blame those brick walls for all the hilariously oversized lenses we have to pair with our tiny mirrorless bodies. The irony is just too much! 😂📸

anyone can buy what they want, what gear are you using now?

@@Kim_Alexander yes, that is certainly true. Anyone can buy what they want. I am using Zeiss lenses for most of my work. Nikon and Tomkins for occasional work.

@@oliverlison made in Japan and Thailand. Nowdays it's hard not to get mad in china. I se different areas of made in China. Let's focus on 3. 1. Manufacturing moving to China to be able to produce. ore like fuji x100vi an seen cameras where the color already worn of that never happens to my made in Japan x100v 2. Chinese premium brand like high end Dji products, and Viltrox lenses, So fa my experience with this company's the support and the people have been spot on., much better than many other companies. 3. Cheep knockoff or budget option. Let's just say that you often gets what you pay for.

I used to be on the same fence..... then I gave them another chance and bought this Viltrox lens...it is just WOW! I watched many review before I bought it but I was very skeptical and I was proven wrong and these youtubers are not wrong. It is really awesome lens.

I feel like this experience is such a poor depiction of the quality of many Chinese made lenses, you should give another one a go.
