TTArtisan AF 14mm f/3.5 14mm
A 99-gram aviation-grade aluminum body and STM autofocus in a 14mm f/3.5 lens (21mm full-frame equivalent) distinguish this as an ultralight wide-angle prime for Sony E-mount APS-C cameras. Its 9.8-inch minimum focus distance and 7-blade aperture deliver versatile close-ups with smooth defocus for an optic this compact. Street photographers and vloggers who need a featherweight, pocketable 21mm equivalent lens will find it ideal for discrete, all-day shooting.
