Is the 7artisans m 28mm f 1 4 worth it?

Whether it's worth it depends on what you shoot. The 7Artisans M 28mm f/1.4 is a fixed, manual-focus 28mm for full frame Leica M bodies, with no stabilisation. It fits a long run of them, from the Leica M9 through the Leica M11, so if you already shoot one of those, the mount question is settled.

For street work, 28mm is a good choice. It's wide and immersive, but it means you have to get close to people, as the street guide explains. Manual focus also asks more of you than autofocus does, so it suits photographers who like to slow down and work with the lens.

If you're still deciding whether full frame is worth the cost, read Sensor sizes first. Full frame matters most in low light and for shallow depth of field.
