More Viltrox AF 75mm f/1.2 Pro Shipping, Where to Buy, and Reviews


Viltrox only produced 50 Viltrox AF 75mm f/1.2 Pro lenses for the launch, which immediately sold out on their website, so there was some speculation that the lens might be a lower volume lens that is hard to find, but I have now received 3 reports of different batches of the lens shipping from B&H Photo since January 18th, so it sounds like they are shipping consistently. One of the three is my lens which just shipped today and I can’t wait to try it out with my X-T5.

Viltrox also sells directly on Amazon, but the lens hasn’t been in stock since it was found on January 20th, so B&H Photo is probably the best retailer to order from if you want to get a Viltrox AF 75mm f/1.2 Pro sometime soon.

CineD: Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8 R WR Factory Tour

Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8 R WR:
B&H Photo / Amazon / Moment / Adorama

CineD gave us a look inside the Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8 R WR factory, which is currently one of my favorite new lenses for X-mount. It’s good to see Fujifilm is giving factory tours again, and there really isn’t much to learn from the video, but it is pretty interesting to see how they assemble the 480 parts of this lens.

The video is pretty short for a CineD Fujifilm video, so I am inclined to believe that CineD was in Japan to see something else from Fujifilm, and they got to see the Fujinon XF150-600mm f/5.6-8 R WR factory on a stop along the way, so maybe we will get more videos from them related to this trip.
