TTArtisan 56mm F1.8 AF 56mm
Combining a bright f/1.8 aperture with an 84mm full-frame equivalent field of view, this 245g lens delivers strong subject isolation for portraiture on APS-C systems. Its stepping motor provides quiet, speedy autofocus, while the inclusion of one ED element helps suppress color fringing for cleaner images. This is best for budget-conscious portrait and street photographers seeking a lightweight autofocus prime with a classic short-telephoto perspective.
