TTartisan Neo 50mm f/1.8 AF hits Sony E and Nikon Z for $90

auto_awesomePixelfetch Take
Ninety dollars for a full-frame AF 50mm that weighs 157 grams. That's the actual headline. TTartisan's Neo series is clearly targeting the run-and-gun shooter who wants native AF on Sony E or Nikon Z without carrying an extra 400 grams or spending $600. The stripped-back design, no aperture ring, no focus ring, is a deliberate trade for size and price. For a second body walk-around lens, a lightweight travel kit, or a budget portrait option for emerging shooters you're mentoring, this is worth knowing about. The 85mm f/1.8 at whatever price they land it will be the more interesting test — that focal length has real competition from Viltrox and Samyang at similar price points.
