TTArtisan’s Portrait Prime Comes To X Mount

TTArtisan is giving Fujifilm shooters a new option with its AF 75mm f/2 portrait lens, now available for X-mount. The lens first launched last year for Sony E and Nikon Z, and later for L-mount, but this marks the first time Fuji users get their hands on it. On APS-C, that 75mm focal length comes out to about 112.5mm equivalent, which lands right in the classic portrait territory.

The lens itself is pretty compact and not too heavy, coming in at 326 grams and only 74mm long. It’s built from metal, has a dedicated aperture ring, and takes 62mm filters. Inside, you’ll find 10 elements in seven groups, including an extra-low dispersion element and four high-index elements. The nine-blade aperture is designed to give portraits smooth, rounded background blur. Autofocus is handled by a stepper motor, which should keep things quick and quiet, and it works with eye, animal, and vehicle detection on Fuji cameras. You can also get in as close as 0.75 meters for tighter portraits.

75mm isn’t a super common focal length, but it’s been popping up more often recently, and TTArtisan clearly sees it as a good fit for portrait work. The lens ships with a metal hood, and there is a USB-C port for firmware updates. Pricing for this new X Mount variant is at $199.
