Kamlan 50mm f1.1 vs 7Artisans 55mm f1.4 | Lens Comparison

  • Alik Griffin

With cheap manual lenses from China and Korea growing in popularity, many people are wonder if they are worth it, or which to buy.  In this test, I compare the 7Artisans 55mm f1.4 to the KamLan 50mm f1.1. I also threw in a more expensive lens, the Rokinon 50mm f1.2, and the even more expensive Fujinon 56mm f1.2 as a control. Since Fujifilm is legend when it comes to lens design, it will be interesting to see how they compare.

A Walk In The Park | Kamlan 50mm f1.1

I've picked up a few new lenses this year and it seems like I now have an endless option of focal lengths, looks, and types of lenses to choose from. For the first time, I think I might have a lens for just about everything. - Well except for zoom lenses. I just can't stand them and can't see buying any more than what I already have. I know that sounds crazy and that I'm spending all this money, but most of these lenses I'm buying are under 200 bucks.

Kamlan 50mm f1.1 Review & Sample Photos

The KamLan 50mm f1.1 lens is a super fast manual focus lens by Sainsonic for mirrorless cameras. It's designed to be a very inexpensive specialty lens with extremely shallow depth of field with buttery smooth bokeh. This is achieved by a f1.1 aperture with 12 circular aperture blades. Its simple design with a low element count makes this lens shoot and behave more like a retro lens with extreme characteristics.
