7Artisans AF 50mm F1.8 review: this nifty fifty is the company’s first ever autofocus lens

7Artisans AF 50mm F1.8.

7Artisans is a company that was formed by a number of Chinese camera enthusiasts back in 2015. By the time its first lens went into production, seven people remained from the original group, hence the company name. 

7Artisans makes a number of lenses in a variety of mount options and I’ve been impressed in the past with its full-frame compatible 7Artisans 50mm f/1.05 and 7Artisans 10mm f/2.8 Fisheye, both of which I’ve tested in Nikon Z-mount editions. I actually liked the fisheye lens so much I bought one. I’ve also reviewed the recently released ultra-wide-angle but rectilinear 7Artisans 9mm F5.6 which is a good option among Sony E-mount lenses.
