From the editor

The TTArtisan 28/5.6 is a Chinese clone of the Leitz Wetzlar Summaron 28/5.6 (1956) and is designed for street photography. At its maximum speed of F/5.6, the TTArtisan 28mm is a pedestrian, but the slow speed allowed the manufacturer to develop a lens with a very short overall length (19mm) and light weight (151g). Please note, however, that the lens, the dedicated lens hood and even both protective caps are not plastic, but made of brass.

If you set the hyperfocal distance on the focusing distance scale, you don’t have to worry about focusing anymore, just press the shutter release button at the right moment.

The lens was originally released in silver finish in November 2021, but a black version was introduced in June 2022. The special feature of the black version is that the paint will peel off over time, revealing the brass.

In June 2023, a version with the Leica screw mount was released, which comes with an LSM-M adapter.
