- First images of Viltrox’s AF 18mm f/1.2 PRO and AF 40mm f/1.2 PRO for APS-C have surfaced after the company recently teased two fast primes.
- The photos were shared by Mirrorlessrumors, with the original image first appearing on Weibo via 独立摄影师联合会.
- The two additions would bring Viltrox’s PRO APS-C lineup for Fujifilm X to five lenses, joining the existing 27mm, 56mm and 75mm f/1.2 models.
- Viltrox is also broadening its APS-C range beyond the PRO series, having recently announced 2 EVO lenses: a 90mm f/2.2 and a 75mm f/1.8.
Can Viltrox's aggressive pricing and rapid expansion truly challenge the dominance of established lens giants like Sigma? As Viltrox makes pro features affordable, what hidden performance trade-offs are photographers accepting for the price? Is Viltrox's advanced lens strategy making the camera body less important than the glass attached to it?
