TTArtisan 40mm F2


FYI I've been testing the newly announced TTArtisan 40/2 AF for Z:



Unfortunately they seem to have not used the improved rear assembly that fixed their issues with the 75/2 when used on the ZF...I immediately identified this on the ZF and have submitted lots of data for their R&D team.

Disappointing, because otherwise, the fit and finish plus the aperture ring make it more compelling than the Nikon 40/2 for me personally.

My review has been postponed until we sort out whatever is going on on the ZF. I suspect the E mount version does not suffer from this, as the symptoms are similar enough to the 75/2 to make me think it's the rear assembly again, which was fine on Sony cameras.
