The new Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB Z has been announced as the second native Z-mount full-frame prime in the company’s LAB Series. Designed to feature some advanced optical engineering, the Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB pushes the expectations of what a Viltrox lens can be.
Ultra-bright and wide-angle, the Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB could be an ideal everyday lens for your photography or videography needs, as it could be a nice option to couple with a Nikon Z-mount full-frame digital camera that should be able to serve shooters well in a variety of production types.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB and what it can offer as a new flagship offering for one of Viltrox’s most advanced lens series that the company has put out yet.
The Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB
Featuring a high-quality optical design that further sees the company focus on an intuitively crafted lens barrel that should allow shooters to make use of swift setting adjustments while capturing on the go, the Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB aims to deliver exceptional resolution, refined depth, and expressive clarity in a true flagship form.
One of the hallmarks of this new LAB Series will be quick and quiet autofocus performance, which is provided by the lens’s VCM focusing motor. The Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB will also offer a f/1.2 maximum aperture that will allow for working in dimly lit environments and help to create stunning bokeh.
As far as optical aberration and image distortion go, the lens should offer major reductions thanks to its extra-low dispersion (ED), high-refractive (HR), and aspherical (ASPH) lens elements.
Price and Availability
Overall, this new Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB is a pretty bold statement for a brand best known for its affordability. The lens will feature some nice workflow perks, too, as it will have two Fn buttons on the barrel, which should help ensure that your favorite custom settings are easily accessible. Additionally, the lens is protected by a multilayer nanocoating that prevents water, dust, and fouling damage.
