Meike has officially announced the development of the AF 85mm F1.2 lens—a full-frame, autofocus prime lens featuring a fast F1.2 aperture. It will utilize Meike’s latest proprietary technology, prioritizing weight reduction while maintaining high optical quality; the optical design is already largely complete, with the lens body weight kept under 900g. Two development paths are currently being explored:
The TTArtisan Neo line is a new series of ultra-affordable, minimalist full-frame autofocus prime lenses that prioritize extreme simplicity, compact size, and low cost over traditional manual controls. The line features a clean, no-frills design with no aperture ring or focus ring.

Here are some sample photos taken with the 135mm lens:
“The 7Artisans 135mm F1.8 AF is a large-aperture prime lens compatible with full-frame sensors. Planned mounts include Sony E, Nikon Z, and L, making it compatible with mirrorless cameras of all these systems. The combination of a 135mm focal length and an F1.8 aperture maximizes the subject’s focus with a shallow depth of field and a compression effect that accentuates the subject. It’s ideal for portraits and other scenes where you want to highlight the subject. The minimum focusing distance of 0.68m, relatively short for a 135mm lens, allows for close-up shots. The aperture ring allows for intuitive aperture control. The AF/MF switch allows for smooth focus control depending on the shooting situation. Furthermore, the camera’s function button can be assigned to various functions, allowing for customization to suit your shooting style. This lens combines the expressive power of a large-aperture prime lens with a practical operation system.”

The Neo Series focuses on simplicity, with a clean and minimalistic design – no aperture ring or focus ring. The new TTartisan AF 50mm f/1.8 full-frame lens weighs only 157 grams and is available in Sony E and Nikon Z mounts (a L-mount version is coming later). The lens features an STM stepping motor, an 8-element, 12-group optical design, a 52mm filter thread, and a minimum focusing distance of 0.48 meters, and supports DIY custom armor. The price is around $90. The second TTartisan Neo lens (AF 85mm f/1.8) will be released later.

Sigma is rumored to release a new 65mm ultra-fast aperture autofocus lens in September. The lens is supposed to be faster than f/1.2, according to camerainsider, who has provided valid information in the past. My guess is it will be a new 65mm f/1.0 or 65mm f/1.1.
The lens will be announced during the company’s 65th-anniversary celebrations in September.
