The Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB N FE review reveals impressive optical performance, exceptional sharpness, and smooth background blur. This lens offers excellent value compared to native lenses. Its robust metal, weather-resistant construction makes it a durable choice.
The lens features excellent sharpness, smooth bokeh, and is robust with aerospace-grade metal and plated brass mount. It boasts an 11-blade diaphragm for rounded highlights and smooth out-of-focus areas. Additionally, it supports the camera's face and eye detection systems.
However, the lens is larger and heavier than expected for a 35mm prime lens due to its f/1.2 maximum aperture and complex optical construction. Despite this, the lens feels well-made and offers a dedicated aperture ring on the newer model for easier aperture setting.
