**We've seen some fairly affordable and fast lenses from a variety of manufacturers over the past couple of years, but TTArtisan may have topped all other lenses with a 50mm F/1.2 APS-C lens that costs $98 USD (just under £72). That's right, a fast 'Nifty Fifty' for under 100 bucks!**

The TTArtisan 50mm F/1.2 APS-C lens works with Sony E, Canon EOS M, M4/3, and Fujifilm X camera mounts. It weighs just under 12 ounces (336 grams), making it a nice Nifty Fifty to carry around in a camera bag.

The max aperture is F/1.2 and the minimum is F/16, and the minimum focus distance is .5 meters (under 20 inches). It features a manual focus design and a 52 mm filter size. In addition, the lens features 7 elements in 5 groups with 10 diaphragm blades.

Even though it's for APS-C sensors, this is a very affordable lens and worthy of a purchase for shooters using cameras with compatible mounts. A Nifty Fifty is the kind of lens every videographer and photographer should keep in their camera bag.
