TTArtisan has released a new limited-edition version of its compact autofocus prime, the AF 27mm f/2.8 “Polar White”, available for Sony E and Fujifilm X mounts. Limited to 2,000 units worldwide, the lens features a smooth white lacquer finish that gives it a clean, minimalist look. It is built from 5052 aviation-grade aluminium, weighing 80-100 grams (depending on mount) and includes a clicked aperture ring, a metal lens hood, and a USB-C port for firmware updates built into the rear lens cap.

The lens uses an optical design of six elements in five groups, with a seven-blade diaphragm and a closest focusing distance of 0.35 meters. The f/2.8 maximum aperture allows for decent subject separation and smooth background blur while keeping the lens relatively small and lightweight. TTArtisan says the STM stepping motor ensures quick and quiet autofocus, while the lens also supports eye, face, and animal detection AF. It is compatible with in-camera image stabilisation for more stable handheld shooting.

The AF 27mm f/2.8 Polar White has a 39mm filter thread and a 56° angle of view, giving you a natural, versatile perspective roughly equivalent to 40mm on full-frame. The aperture can be adjusted via the physical ring or, when set to “A,” through the camera body. The limited-edition Polar White version is priced at $168.
