TTArtisan 40mm f/2.8 Reviews

Great clarity

By Greg
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-05-12

I purchased this Macro lens based on its price. This is the third TTA lens I own and I am satisfied with them all. I owned a competitor’s lens years ago and it seemed clumsy. Although it had autofocus capabilities, I prefer manual focus for macro work. TTA is hard to beat in terms of cost , clarity and easy operation. I have been a photo enthusiast since the late 70’s and I will gladly recommend this lens to anyone.

Loving it so far

I got this lens because I wanted 1:1 macro without spending too much. What I didn't expect is not just 1:1 macro but much more. This lens excels at all kinds of close up and macro shots. In addition to that, this lens surpassed my expectations as a portrait lens. It is super sharp, easy to use and great for general photography. I have taken some pretty good portrait shots with it as well. Definitely a keeper.

Is there significant chromatic aberration at the closest focus distances, and is it sharp corner-to-corner?
Asked by: J. C.
This is sharp certainly for the price range corner to corner provided what is in frame is all on the same plane. The lens is coated and you should not have aberration provided you are focused on the closest subject and it will be sharp as long as it is not closer than the minimum focus distance.

Asked by: Nellie
Good lens to look at that will offer you a 1:1 life-size maximum magnification. we usually suggest 60mm and 100 Marco but the 40mm will do the job.
