Viltrox AF 55mm F1.8 EVO Review: Sharp Optics, Slow AF
auto_awesomePixelfetch Take
Viltrox's AF 55mm F1.8 EVO is a full-frame standard prime for Sony E and Nikon Z mounts, retailing at USD $370. Optics are the standout: apochromatic design, very sharp, low distortion and fringing, with a built-in aperture ring. The trade-off is autofocus that struggles with video and moving subjects, plus visible focus breathing and vignetting wide open.
