- In this video, I'll be working with the Viltrox 16mm f/1.8 ultra-wide prime lens for Nikon Z cameras. This lens is also available for Sony. First I'll give a brief look around the lens before taking it out for some long-exposure photography at a few locations around Chattanooga.

Photos look better on Vero than on Instagram.
Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful video like always
Thank you!
Nice video Phil. I like your landscaping ideas … 👍🏾
Thank you!
Very nice lens. Let’s go, Canon! Get with the program!!!!
Canon is about to release some more 1.4 primes so that might be nice. I agree, they need to open up the mount to more third party autofocus lenses.
Phil, awesome review! Love seeing the Viltrox 16mm f/1.8 in action, especially with those landscape shots. Appreciate the deep dive into its features, like the weather sealing and smooth AF. Watching you put it through its paces makes it clear this is a solid choice for landscape work. Thanks for the detailed insights and inspiring shots!
Thank you! I’m hoping to use it again soon.
Great review! I haven’t owned/used a Viltrox lens before, but I’ve heard great things about them. Full-frame 16mm 1.8 is such a cool lens to have for many scenarios. I really liked the photo at 9:41 with that rock and leaves in the foreground
@@jalenobanphotography thank you, Jalen! You have excellent videos, I would not be surprised if they contact you about doing a review sometime soon. 😎
@ I appreciate that, Phil
Had this lens for about 3 months, used on z8 and it is brilliant for astro 👍
I can’t wait to do some Astro with it. 👍
Beautiful shots, Phil. Many of these third-party lenses are quite amazing, especially considering the price. I have a few of the really "cheap" Ttartisan lenses for Fuji and they are all satisfactory for my uses. I've never been to Signal Mountain. I'll have to get down there one day. Just retired from ETSU, so now have way more time for photography.
Thank you! That trail on Signal mountain is worth a look for sure.
Thanks Phil looking forward to future videos with this lens
Thank you, Ron!
Love this lens Phil. It’s really awesome for astro 🤙
I wish I had it in Canada. The morning we showed up at Lake Louise, you could see the stars over the mountains before sunrise. Not getting that shot is my one regret from the trip.
Neat little lens - thank you for sharing. ❤
Thanks, JP!
Great shots! I am interested in the future to see its performance at f 1.8. I have the Nikon 14-30 and I agree that it is a small issue having larger filter and having to use different rings on my 24-70.
Thank you! I hope to do some astro photography with it at some point. It may be all the way in March before I do it but it's coming, eventually! :)
I am so impressed by your passion on photography especially after you had a heart attack.
Thank you!
I looked up the version for Sony and they run around $500+ for one. Thanks for the review
I should have a coupon code in the description that could save you some money for even the Sony version.
Great video as always sir. We should do a meet up and shoot together sometime I live in the downtown area.
Thank you! Sounds fun!
I've had this lens in my sights since it was introduced. So far I've not made the purchase because I've got the Nikon 14-30.
Did Viltrox send you this lens for review -> own?
I’ve had my sights on it too. I all but begged Viltrox to send me a review sample. They finally did. Usually, they ask me to review a lens, this time I asked them.
@@PhilThach Maybe I should start asking you for a Z8!
😄
@@leonfisher :)
Must be a letdown calling that landscape photography after your Canadian trip 😜
Quite the reality check. :)
When moneys not an obstacle.
Be cool if Viltrox did a 14-30mm or similar
Viltrox doesn’t make many or maybe any zoom lenses. Hopefully they will start making zooms at some point.
@PhilThach they're missing out on large percentage of market, i.e: Landscapers
@@Stop-All-War I agree!
@PhilThach I bought my 2nd 16-35mm yesterday..initially Canon, now on Nikon Dslr's..
Mirrorless can wait until _'I see the technology is staggering for a lower price..'_
