Is the ttartisan m 50mm f 0 95 asph worth buying used?

I'd say yes, if you already shoot a Leica M or plan to. The TTArtisan 50mm f/0.95 is a manual-focus prime for full-frame Leica M bodies, and it fits a long list of them, from the Leica M9 through the Leica M11. With no autofocus and no stabilisation, you're buying it for the wide aperture and the 50mm view, so a used copy suits it well.

Lenses generally hold up, so buying used is one of the best ways to save on gear; see buying used. Check the glass and the focus ring carefully before you pay. If you want a faster lens with a sharper reputation and can afford more, the Leica Noctilux-M 50mm f/0.95 is the fastest M lens, but it's heavy and very thin to focus wide open.
