Viltrox shows its expertise as a manufacturer with the AF 135mm F1.8 lens. This is a new and uncompromising quality LAB series.
Even the most reliable camera testers on YouTube have compared this directly to Sony's 135mm G Master lens. So the price is the same as Viltrox, but the image quality is on par with the camera manufacturers' own quality. Interesting news for portrait photographers!
The Viltrox AF 135mm includes comprehensive controls: two programmable buttons, an aperture ring (with or without clicks). The aperture ring does not have aperture values marked on it, but this information is displayed on the lens's info display. The settings on the info display can be adjusted using the Viltrox smart device software directly via Bluetooth!
Autofocus is also very fast. The Viltrox AF 135mm includes the manufacturer's new Hyper VCM focus motor, a fancy name but in principle it is a modern and agile linear motor. Focusing works when taking photos and video. And the speed is indeed okay but according to testers the focus is a bit noisy while Sony's G Master is practically silent.
