Key Features of the 7Artisans AF 24mm f/1.8
Bright f/1.8 Aperture
The wide f/1.8 maximum aperture allows for excellent low-light performance and beautiful background separation. Whether you’re shooting portraits in soft evening light or vlogging indoors, this lens delivers impressive results.
Autofocus for Photo and Video
Unlike many manual lenses in this price range, the 7Artisans AF 24mm f/1.8 includes a built-in autofocus motor. It provides fast and quiet AF, making it a solid choice for video creators and vloggers using Sony’s APS-C bodies like the ZV-E10 or a6400.
Optical Design
The lens construction includes 9 elements in 7 groups, featuring two ED elements and two high-refractive index elements. These help reduce chromatic aberrations and enhance overall sharpness. A 7-blade diaphragm produces smooth, circular bokeh.
Build Quality and Design
Weighing only 180 grams, this Sony lens is ultra-portable while still offering a solid metal build. It pairs well with compact Sony cameras and is easy to carry around for daily photography or travel.
A Budget-Friendly Autofocus Lens
One of the biggest selling points of the 7Artisans AF 24mm f/1.8 is its price. Positioned well below many other AF primes, it offers great value without compromising on performance or image quality — making it a strong option for beginners and budget-conscious creators. The 7Artisans AF 24mm F1.8 lens can be purchased $329.90 in the US or £299 in the UK.
