yes it is! My favourite manual lens. Great storytelling lens and 35mm vibes for black and white . My aperture ring is great. From 2.8 it's great. The softness at 1.2 for the size is great. I compared it to the new voigtländer 35mm1.2 and prefer the 7artisans one
@@Iamtongue Yes. It's less soft from 1.2 to f2. 7artisans has less stressy bokeh. It's more smooth. The Voigtländer 35mm f1.2 was for me the biggest dissapointment together with XE4 since I moved over to Fujifilm 4 years ago I was planning to buy both but after trying I kept my money. I've been using the 7artisans 35mm1.2 mark2 for a year now almost everyday. And I'd give it a 9 of 10 looking at built quality, price, size and optics. I don't use it for landscape or things far away. I prefer it from 1m to 10m and close portraits. Centre sharpness is very similar to XF35mmf2 from f2.
@@Swingkid14 interesting.. I was even thinking about buying a voigtlander lens to test out... This worries me because i was really interested in the 23mm F1.2 from voigtlander.
@@Iamtongue I've heard that their 23mm1.2 is better by the people who own both. Many buyers have send the 35mm1.2 back. I'm saving up for a Nikon FM2, 50mm 1.8 and 28mm 2.8. Not too expensive but film is🤣. But the XF35mm 1.4 is still my favourite lens of all time.
More lenses and sensors should aim for character over clinical resolution and aspherical elements. I think the images look gorgeous. What kind of editing did these need and what are your grain settings (for the portraits at 2:38, 4:24, 4:56, 5:34). I love those images, the softness and tones convey more feeling.
The weird thing is that it's the lens I've used most these last weeks. It's just so fun using..! Even though i have 3 other lenses that is much better it's the feel of nailing focus and lowlights on 1.2 with a defuse filter makes the highlight look soooo fucking badass! Especially in BW if u use the alan schaller recipe with this lens . 😍🤙🥳
Guys, I received this lens for my Fuji x-s 10 today. And when I hit the record button nothing happens… The most interesting, that when I use remote control from my phone, I can record the video and take photos, but to make a video for example, right from the camera, it doesn’t work. I have a 18-55 mm lens and everything is good. Can someone tell what can it be?
Haha loved your comments about character. Reminds me a bit of my 28 mm Vivitar I adapted to my x-t1. I love a filmic look so I bet I’d love this lens haha
I've had this the past 90 days .. had to go through 2 copies to get a very sharp model. Beautiful bokeh, acceptable sharpness, lots of ghosts but looks the most full frame image so far for my Fuji. I prefer it to my native Fuji 35 1.4.
Really enjoyed the photos. Some feedback - would be great if you turn down the volume of the “click” when you show those photos, or choose a different click altogether. This one was very hard/sharp/loud on the ears, especially compared to your volume. Cheers.
Your pictures are awesome! I'd day your skills with this lense Tell expensive lenses dump/waste. I love every Single one of them. And purcjased this lense for my own. Thank you very much for this content.
@@Iamtongue hey iamtongue i have a really important question i just ordered an xs10 with xc50to230 mm it is a good option i mean after the released of xs-20 is xs-10 still a good option in 2023 and what about the lense xc 50 to 230 i needed a zoom lense but xf is out of my budget for now please i need your opinion 🥺 🙏
I have tried some TTArtisan lenses and they work just fine (especially for the price), with much better results than with Viltrox lenses, I don’t know if 7 Artisans is the same manufacturer as TTArtisan.
Hey Tongue 😜 Thank you so much for your videos, I watched all of them and loved it 🤩 I have 2 questions sir. 1) in this video there is a picture from one guy at 4:06 which camera did you used ? 2) since I want to switch my camera from my old Canon m6 to an Fuji camera specially for taking pictures with a film quality. I'm really not sure which one to buy if I should buy the X10s the camera you are using or the x1000v. Just regarding to the quality of pictures specially Film Modus and for street photography which camera would you recommend ? Sorry for my bad English im from Germany 🤣
Hey man, the shot with the guy was shot with the Fujifilm XS10... I really love that camera and I think it can do a little bit of everything for photographers on different levels... If you are starting out you won't be disappointed with the Fujfiilm XS10 :D
Hey I bought it now!!! :D😂😂😂 would you maybe explain me, which filter or setup did you used for these pictures? I really love the look and Color’s ❤ @Iamtongue
it feels like are joking about it to much to take ur statements seriously haha It think its fundamental to gain some diversity between lenses. Aftermarket this costs 80 bucks and is a no brainer to have that CHARACTER... :D
It has character...🥲

When they do (voigtlander) people whine and bitch about it

haha ya bro i know what you mean...something about manually focusing makes the process more fun to use.😀
Where can I find the Schaller recipe?
Would you mind sharing alan schaller recipe?
@@tonypulido8127 ooh. Sorry didn't see this comment. Have u found the recipe ?
How you are such an amazing photographer man. The range your photos has is breathtaking, TEACH US

glad to hear that you can get so much out of a budget lens!
Do you still have the same experience? I have the xf 1.4. What makes you like this lens more?
This video has character! Nice review!
LOL thanks bro😂
I can probably use this as an every day walk around lens
yup the size of the lens makes this a very good option :)
It is actually much cheaper than Zhongyi 35mm 0.95f, looks like a good budget lens
a very good budget lens! so fun to use

Thank you!
Great videos, by any chance have you tested the 7artisans 35mm f1.4?
Thank you! And I have not.
the shape reminds me a lot of the Industar 50-2!
hey bro have you used 50mm F1.8? which one should i buy right now for portrait, Fashion 35mm F1.4 or 50mmf 1.8?
35
The only problem is the crappy aperture blades!!! Stop- sign bokeh from f2.5 to f16
ya well its around 100 bucks, so i can't really complain about it.
Fuji xc 35f2 or 7artisan 35 f1.2 which one should i purchase?
that decision is up to you.
@@Iamtongue i guess i will go with xc😊

ohhh really.. what lenses did you like from the TTaristans? the names are very similair thats why i think they could be the same lol
@@Iamtongue From TTArtisan the 17mm and 35mm, both f/1.4 for Fuji, recently I got the Rokinon 12mm f/2 and it works great on the X-T4.
How does this lens render compared to Meike 35 mm 0.95? Thinking of substitute the Meike for this 7 artisans or a ttartisan...
Meike is much sharper at f0.95 than this 7artisans is at f1.2
@@Iamtongue thank you!!! 😊
character , gives film like quality
Thanks for the video!
No worries! thanks for watching

Those images look wonderful, less clinical than the usual "super sharp" ones we get flooded with, day after day.
thanks man i appreciate that.
bought one and for some reason does not fit the fx mount so i had to return it
So you bought one that wasn’t fitted for the x mount 🤔🤣
@@Iamtongue it was fuji Fx mount but it just wont fit in
