Viltrox AF AF 40mm f/2.5 FE 40mm

★★★★★ 4.6 (335)

Sa conception ultra-compacte de 167 g associe une focale polyvalente 40 mm f/2,5 pour plein format à un moteur STM silencieux et une formule optique à 10 éléments avec verre ED et traitement nano multicouche. Malgré sa légèreté, il intègre une jointure d'étanchéité et un revêtement anti-salissures sur la lentille frontale, offrant une robustesse inattendue à ce niveau de prix. Cet objectif est idéal pour les photographes de rue et les amateurs de reportage quotidien recherchant une optique discrète à grande ouverture.

  1. Q1 202674/1004.5★7 avis

    Buyers praise value, sharpness, lightweight build, and bokeh. Some report autofocus issues and close-focus limitations.

    • Compact, lightweight build with included lens hood, ideal for travel.
    • Autofocus can struggle or hunt, especially with eye-tracking active.

  3. Q3 202582/1004.4★10 avis

  5. Q2 2024100/1005.0★4 avis
