Is the ttartisan m 28mm f 5 6 worth it?

Yes, if you shoot street on a Leica M and want something small and quiet. It's a 19mm-thin pancake at 28mm, so it lives in a coat pocket and you'll forget it's there. The f/5.6 aperture won't help in dim light, so think of it as a daylight lens. Zone focusing suits it well: set a distance, pick a sensible aperture, and shoot.

Be honest about the trade-offs. You're committing to manual focus and to 28mm, which means getting close to people. If you're unsure, the Street page makes a good case for 35mm as the classic starting point.

It only fits Leica M bodies, so check yours first. Good matches from the list include the Leica M11, the Leica M10-D, and the Leica M (Typ 240).
