Got mine a month or so ago and this lens is amazing! I'll probably hang on to it for years to come. If the upcoming 135mm 1.8 from Viltrox is a good as this I'll definitely buy that too Viltrox is killing it

Your videos are always the best and honest reviews

To fix the lens hood from loosening you can cut two slivers of paper and place them in to the track of the hood where it makes engagement with the lens. It increases the friction.

I have the viltrox 85mm... It honestly shits all over my sigma 24-70mm.. It's my favorite lens, and I'm excited to snag more viltrox lenses.. af is a little slow, BUT, for my needs, it doesn't matter

I just got mine for night time-lapse shooting. Will test it out soon.

You've left the b roll at the end of the other video and posted this one first :D I love that we are all human!

Picked one of these up about a month ago, and I've been thoroughly impressed. Especially for the price!!

Zeiss Touit 12mm 2.8 or Zeiss Batis 18mm 2.8?

How will this lens fare against astrophotography?

Received mine two days ago (for Sony), and it is an awesome lens. But the lens connection to a MAC and PC does not work at all and I needed to return it for an exchange. Per Viltrox, there is something wrong with an internal circuit. This may be rare, since I could not find anyone else having the same issue. The lens-to-computer function is only important if upgrading firmware is important to you.

What happened to your old channel Kai?

[ScottJWaldron]

The lens does look pretty decent! I've used their APS-C glass on EF-M. Pretty quirky at first but they improved them a lot through firmware.

Viltrox are one of the top third party camera lenses IMO

[SkFy-BrianC]

Hmm interesting, should post some full size pics for us to check as well though

Any chance of a review of the Laowa 19mm for gfx?

[AgnostosGnostos]

sony has a great advantage by permiting third party autofocus contrary to cano RF mount camera that dont permit autofcus with the thitd party lenses. Also sony e mount autofocus is totaly open to thirtd party lens manufactures. No need for reverse engineniring as with Niko Z mount.
For people who want cheap but really good third party autofocus lense, sony emount is the only choice.

It will be cool when viltrox announces 24-70 f2.8 in the same quality...
