Viltrox AF AF 56/1.7 E 56mm
A bright f/1.7 aperture on an 85mm-equivalent prime, combined with STM autofocus and lens stabilization, delivers sharp portraits and smooth video from a lightweight 371g build. Its four ED elements control aberrations well, and the 85mm close focus supports macro-style shots, though missing weather sealing limits outdoor use. Best for Fujifilm APS-C portrait shooters needing bokeh in low light, and macro users wanting a versatile prime.
