Summary

The 7Artisans AF 50mm F1.8 is the portrait specialist in the Lite series. With a focal length equivalent to 75mm on a full-frame camera, it offers ideal image compression for isolating the subject from the background. It's the lightest in the series (only 178g) and its simple 6-element optical construction aims to maximize contrast and image clarity for close-ups and detail photography. Its narrow angle of view (31.4°) helps eliminate distractions in the composition.
