Minor correction, this lens does not weight ~2.5 lbs. I think Chris meant to say it weighs about 1.5lbs, especially since he got the metric measurement correct (748 grams).
Thanks, and apologies :-)
Wow! If I didn't already own the Canon RF 100MM Macro I'd definitely get this! Way to go TTArtisan!
Wow what a performance , could become my first TTartisan lens! Thx for the review.
Had this lens with the T/S module, the focus throw is unfeasibly short in actual use. Stay away, get the Laowa instead - that's what I did.
even at macro distances? and what's your experience if let's say focusing by physically moving back and forth with tilt-shift at f/8? is it worth it with focus depth shifting, i.e. doing macro without stacking potentially?
This different design…
@@quite1enough see 1:16 and tell me what you think. (And 1:38 )
Didn't expect this result, wow fantastic lens for this price
Chris,
It either weighs approx 700g (1.5-6 lbs), or 2.5 lbs (1,180g)….
It’s not very clear in the video as you made it sound like 700g equates directly to 2.5lbs which is incorrect.
Does the weight significantly differ between mounts (Sony : 700g, while GFX : 1,180g), because what you said in your video is somewhat confusing?
Nice review as usual. However I'm a bit tired of labeling Chinese lenses as 'low budget' lenses 5 or 6 times during the review. This designation suggests that thses lenses are in a lower league than their Japanese or German lenses whis is not really true. We are all aware of the price tag so needless to repeat it so often.
And thanks for all theses reviews.
5:08 now done TTArtisan 100mm 2.8 2x macro for Fuji GFX review by paulschefz not as rigourous as you. Would love to have seen resolution etc at those corners.
2.5 lbs is not 700gms mate (thank you for the video!)
Considering marcos are usually f/5.6 and above to get any kind of depth of field (even then you’re focus stacking), is the f/2.8 useful for macro? Are there any compact macro options starting at say f/5.6 or even f/8? I would love a tiny macro to keep in the bag :)
Impressive quality. I think this beats my Meike for sure. But at the same time, for my work the Meike has been a good enough performer. The focus through beyond a meter is way worse on that lens though 😂
I wasn't expecting that great performance. I do a lot of macro photography and use a Sigma 105mm DG DN macro but I have been wanting a 2x macro lens for taking photos of objects such as plant seeds in a studio setup. I don't have the budget for the Laowa 2x macro lenses, so this might be a good lens for that, especially how sharp it is for the price.
Whoah, that extensive display of focus breathing gave me full dizziness… 🤢
6:18 How did you get N.Korean bill? 🤪I see you've been Korea for a while though.
I wonder why these budget lenses often have flaring problems. One would think it is the easier part of optical design to correct for, but I'm no expert.
I suspect it has to do with the cost of the best coatings just being too high at a low price point.
The lack of hood is not at all surprising.
If you know how to use this lens, you don't want a hood.
How does this compare to the 100mm 2.8 macro with tilt shift?
The lens doesn't interest me, but I examine it and enjoy watching it. Greetings from Turkey.
Hey Chris! I'de love to know how this compares to the very highly regarded laowa 100mm 2X macro which you have also reviewed quite favorably in the past!
I own the Laowa 100mm, from what I can see the Laowa is the better lens overall. However the Laowa is twice the price of this TTArtisan and if I were in the market for an adorable macro I would save the money. The TTArtisan is 90% of the Laowa for half the price, a no brainer if you ask mw
@@TDDPhoto Yeah honestly given how well the TT did, I'm not sure if there is any practical difference at all! Its why I'd love to see a more direct comparison from someone who's used both.
for apsc sensor. do you prefer this or 60mm laowa 2x macro ?
You are an international treasure, Chris! Thank you 😊
looks like laowa's 100macro?
Seeing coverage of gfx sensor would be good.
Awesome video, I still love the best in the bis Sony 90mm F/2.8 G oss Macro
I'm selling my Tokina AT-X Macro 90mm f/2.5 Macro plus Extender 1:1. ANYONE? Very good condition with EOS adapter.
Unless my eyes deceive me, this centre image sharpness looks worse than the Pergear 60mm macro, a lens you described as "good" for sharpness, and yet this is excellent? As I said, maybe it's my eyes.....
What do you think against the sigma 105 macro, besides the magnification and the autofocus?
In this price range, Laowa 100mm f2.8 is still the king.
Woow 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Really don't understand why they make the focus throw so short on these macro lenses. That's basically this lens's only true downside. That and perhaps the lack of a hood.
The numbers of the focusring scale seem to be handwritten.
Hi Chris! I really love your videos, they’re the best on RUclips. Are you planning to test the new Nikon 50 mm 1.4?
Yup, when a test sample becomes available
seems like it's the version without tilt-shift
Thank you very much
Thanks for sharing.
2.5lb = 1.1kg
If used as a 2x macro lens, the lack of a hood is irrelevant, if you had one it would hit the subject. The lack of any auto features, such as focus, exposure and EXIF data recording is standard for these offerings and, if we haven't already tried to use one in the field, fairly deal breaking. Stick with a 1x autofocus and switch to manual if necessary to fine tune. 2X macro manual is a world of pain out in the woods, I know from experience. 🥺🥺
Thanks!
Thanks!
third... omg where all the people at?
Amazing 2x macro lens, although I would still prefer my Laowa 85mm F/5.6 2x for macro work as it's so small and lightweight :)
This is actually the correct way to display Fstop - each stop is twice as bright, so it's twice as far.
second woooo lets gooooo
time for a sensor cleaning? 😹
first woooo!
