    A good lens for the price. I think it’s great if third party lens manufacturers can keep producing more Z mount lenses. It keeps the competition up in pricing and doesn’t let one company dominate the market. As photographers/consumers we only benefit from the better pricing and range to choose from 🤙📸

    What a great little lens and great tips for work-arounds. It all comes down to a person's budget and needs, I guess. Loved the production of this video, captivating from start to finish.

      Thanks so much for watching - it’s a good budget alternative for sure. Handy in low light or astro. Hope you guys have a fantastic weekend 👍🙏

    Adrian, thanks for the review of this "budget" lens. Much appreciated, now I have to save for my pre-loved Z camera so I could get new lenses.

      No worries Leo. I'm sure you'll snap up a Z6 or Z7 somewhere for a bargain. This lens is under half the price of the Nikon 35mm F1.8 S lens in the US. I'm glad Viltrox got in touch, cause I like the look of some of their other lenses too. Have a great weekend and take care 🙏

    Another great review Adrian on the lens. Great examples and tips. Looks like another handy lens to have and carry. Many thanks for sharing the info :)

    Thank you for this review, I really don't have a need for a 35mm but I noticed on the Viltrox site they also have a 20mm f1.8 for the z mount. Wonder if you plan to review that lens as well.

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  2 года назад

      Hi Tony - I would love to review the 20mm in future. Be great for astro and as a vlogging lens too I think. Have an amazing week ahead and thanks for watching 🙏

    Hi Adrian, funny - the first thing I thought as I read "35mm f1.8" was: "sounds after a great lens for portraits", but I haven't expected to see you finally really shooting portraits with it :)
    I liked your results, but I find it is quite interesting to experiment with such a fast lens for landscape scenes as well. I liked your image at ~02:47 with the reds in the foreground. That's really a great one, with the repetition of the light greens in the blurry backdrop, what adds a fantastic plasticity.
    Great photos and a great video!
    Nice greetings,
    Christian

    Nice review, Adrian! It's a nice-looking lens and I liked the results you got from it. I'm pleased that it has auto-focus and EXIF data. I think more third-party companies should work on supporting Nikon Z and Canon R. Have a great weekend, Adrian!

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  2 года назад +1

      I agree Phil, it would be great to get more lenses from third party makes. A lot more variety on the market is a good thing for photographers. Thanks for watching and hope you have a good weekend, cheers 🙏

Honestly, I don't see you using this lens much but might be a great option for someone else looking for a budget lens that delivers nice results. Great stuff as always mate!

    Great review for viltrox lens.
    Just wanna ask, is your viltrox sharp? I mean i have mine but it seems it's not sharp when i use it, even when i use f2.8 and high speed, when i zoom in closer it's kinda blurry. I'm curious. Thank you

    • @adrianalfordphotography

      My lens was extremely sharp no issues at all.
