Viltrox 75mm f/1.2 AF 75mm

82 out of 100 medium confidence 15 reviews

The Viltrox 20mm f/2.8 lens is widely praised for its exceptional value, sharp optics, and lightweight build, making it a favorite for landscape, video, and everyday photography. However, many users report inconsistent autofocus performance, with some experiencing hunting or inaccuracy even after firmware updates. The lens hood is noted as a minor weak point, and the lack of an AF/MF switch on the lens body can be confusing. Overall, it delivers impressive image quality for its price, but autofocus reliability remains a key concern.
