Viltrox AF 56mm f/1.2 Pro: B&H Photo / Amazon
Opical limits posted its full review of the Viltrox AF 56mm f/1.2 Pro, which you can read in full here or check out the excerpt below. Viltrox has established a strong reputation over the years, and its pro lenses are among the best and most affordable options on the market.
Optically, the lens is excellent with a few caveats. The sharpness is generally very good to excellent. Lateral CAs are very low… lack of auto-correction for image distortions and vignetting… both aspects are reasonably well managed, and removing/reducing this manually shouldn’t be a big deal.. bokeh is very pleasing in terms of background and out-of-focus highlight smoothness. Axial CAs can be visible in certain scenes..
