Affordable full-frame prime lenses unveiled by 7Artisans in a major price reduction move
The imaging world has been expanded with the launch of two new prime lenses from the brand 7Artisans. These manual focus lenses are designed to work with full-frame Sony E, Nikon Z, Canon RF, and L mount cameras.
The 14mm f/2.8 Ultra-Wide Prime Lens
The first lens in the lineup is the 14mm f/2.8, an ultra-wide-angle prime lens. With a 116-degree field of view, this lens is suitable for photographing interiors, city streets, and astrophotography. The optical path consists of 13 elements in 11 groups, including two aspherical elements, high-refractive index glass, and extra-low dispersion elements. This design ensures expansive views without fisheye distortion. The lens has a fixed aperture of f/2.8, a filter size of 77mm, and a minimum focusing distance of 0.43 meters. It weighs approximately 504 grams.
The 75mm f/1.4 Prime Lens
The second lens, the 75mm f/1.4, is a telephoto prime lens. While specific details about this lens were not readily available, it is likely designed for portrait photography, given the brand's typical lens design and the bright f/1.4 aperture. This aperture, combined with a 13-blade diaphragm, is expected to provide a shallow depth of field and perform well in low light conditions. The lens measures 77mm in length and has a diameter of 62mm. Its minimum focus distance is 0.88 meters.
Pricing and Availability
Both lenses are available to buy now. The 14mm f/2.8 lens retails for $299, while the 75mm f/1.4 lens is priced at $189.
Ben Andrews, the Imaging Labs manager at Digital Camera World, commented on the new lenses: "The 7Artisans 14mm f/2.8 and 75mm f/1.4 prime lenses offer photographers a versatile set of options for wide-angle and telephoto photography. The 14mm lens's expansive view without fisheye distortion makes it an attractive choice for landscape, architecture, and astrophotography, while the 75mm lens's bright aperture and likely focus on portraiture will appeal to those seeking a shallower depth of field and low light performance."
