TTArtisans has made its name with quirky, affordable rangefinder and mirrorless lenses. This portrait-friendly 90mm F1.25 comes in at a relatively low $515, but what are the drawbacks? Well, first off, it’s manual focus only. Secondly, you’ll notice that some of the images in this gallery have no or incorrect F-stop data attached – that’s because there’s no electronic link to the camera’s body. Hence the EXIF is lacking.
But, especially at a portrait focal length, soft optics can be helpfully flattering, and the price is appealing for such a fast aperture. You’ll find plenty of examples to peruse in this gallery (Raw files and processed JPEGs, shot with the Nikon Z7 and Z9). If there’s a shot you want more information about, hit us up in the comments and the sample photographer will try and fill in the missing information.

Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
