17mm——Street Photography & Documentary Photography
Mixing a comfortable wide-angle design with an ultra-fast maximum aperture, the 17mm f/1.4 lens is designed for use with APS-C-format mirrorless cameras and provides a 25mm equivalent focal length. The optical structure of this lens is 9 elements in 8 groups and the angle of view is 81° . Characterized by its bright f/1.4 maximum aperture, this lens is adept at working in low-light conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field for selective focus control. It's a fast and portable lens well-suited to landscape, nature, and street photography.
- Widely Used Focal Length: Humanistic Photography: People and objects can achieve a good balance in the picture, shooting with 17mm lens. So it is well-suited to everyday shooting with subjects including street, landscopae and reportage, which are memorable.
- Wide Abgle Lens But Not Hard to Handle: With the focus length of 17mm, this is a wild angle lens with the viewing angle about 81°.It is not as exaggerated and difficult to control as an ultra-wide lens, allowing you to record beauty more easily.
- Portrait Photography: Compared to medium telephoto lenses, 17mm behave better in environmental information recording, make the scenery and characters integrate better in the shooting. It's a good choice for trip shoot.
- Large Aperture Increases the Possibility of Creation: Usually, wide angle lenses are combined with smaller aperture, it's more like "you can't have your cake and eat it". But with the maximum aperture of F1.4, our 17mm wide angle lens provides you with more creative space.
- Compact and Portable: Weighs only 248g(around), this lens is designed as light and compact as possible. Not only does it look great with the camera, but it won't burden your trip.

A good lens to use for photos mimicking a vintage lens effect a fun to use for special characteristics moments.
This lens is a super value, with plenty of bang for the buck. All metal construction, metal mounting plate, silky smooth focus ring, F1.4!! And for a bargain price. I am an old school shutterbug. I learned to develop my own rolls of B&W 35mm film and make my own prints back in 1962 when I was seven years old in my dad's darkroom. Started out with Rolleiflex and have used all sorts of gear down through the years. Manual focus doesn't scare me, and it shouldn't scare you. Here are a few images I shot today - all handheld - while spending some time with the family at the shore in central Chile where we work as missionaries. I shot all these images with the TT Artisans 17mm Manual Focus F1.7 lens, mounted on my trusted Fujifilm XT1. This lens is sharp and renders beautiful colors. It's a great walk-around street photography lens and mounted on a small body like the XT1 doesn't intimidate strangers like my D700 with my 80-200 F2.8 would. Of course there are better lenses out there. If you think comparing a $100 lens to an $800 lens is fair, than what can I say? But, for the money, this one is not only affordable, but useful, and can produce results that will please 99.9 percent of the folks. Get one. You won't regret it.
I use this lens in a Fuji X-E3 camera. In order to be able to shoot, you have to go to the Menu / SET UP / USER SETTING / SHOOT WITHOUT LENS and turn it ON. Otherwise, the camera won't shoot because the lenns doesn't have any communication with it.Great value.
Really nice lens for my Canon M50. About a 28mm equivalent fov. Sharp in the center, not bad in the corners, stop it down to f5.6 and it will be fine. No autofocus, no lens data or automatic anything, just manual focus, manual aperture, use a pen and pad if you want exif data or settings. You will have to set camera to shoot without lens mode (in the menu). If this sounds like fun, you will love this lens. If not Sigma makes a nice prime 16mm f1.4 in the M mount. Just 3x the $, but has AF and aperture controls and exif data.Did I mention that the lens is all metal and the aperture has very nice clicks (soft but noticable, can be counted if you don't want to look) and the focus ring is very smooth? This is a good walk around lens if you take your time. And it's small, easy to take along.
