What a time to be alive and enjoying photography today, we do not lack options when it comes to budget-friendly, yet high performing capable lenses. Case in point - TTArtisan's latest 35mm F1.8 II lens exceeded my expectations of what I can get from a USD125 lens. It is compact and light, the sharpness is very good wide open at F1.8, and the sharpness is consistent from edge to edge and corner to corner of the frame, the lens produces beautiful bokeh, manages lens flaws reasonably well, and honestly there isn't anything much to complain about the lens. The only issue I had was some purple fringing, which was not a deal-breaker, considering the budget price tag. I attached the lens on my old Sony NEX-6 and went about doing some shutter therapy sessions. I am sharing these fresh images from streets of Kuala Lumpur in this blog entry.
