It's completely different focal length and purpose. 50 f1.0 has no alternative if you need to shoot portraits in a tight spaces or small apartments for example.
I have this 75 on my xt3 with battery grip. Balances and handles perfectly for portrait shoots. Insanely sharp wide open. Love it and the results I get. Thanks for anither video tongue!
Eventually I’ll get this lens. I have the 90 f2 so I’m in no hurry. I was worried about AF speed, glad they made it better with firmware. I’ll give Viltrox credit, they do update their lenses to make them better.
I love you too. If I could afford one ONE lens between the 56 f/1.2 WR, 90mm f/2, and the Viltrox, I think I would still go for the 56mm WR. Closer focusing, good length for outdoor AND indoor use (a big one for me), razor-sharp wide open, awesome bokeh etc. etc. If you like this 75, I have a feeling you'll love the 56mm too. That said I'll probably snap and buy the Viltrox at some point - I really like their other lenses. But I was hoping this one would have snappier AF. Would you say the 90mm is faster?
Great video, I’ve been considering it. I might have to rent it to see if would have a home in my kit! The 90mm f2 replaced my 56mm 1.2 as my favorite Fujifilm lens. Who knows what the future holds!
Awesome review 👌 I bought and tested out the 75mm lens and the images were great until I used my gf80mm on my gfx50r and 😮 nothing comes close to the gf80mm but the viltrox is a huge bargain and still fantastic image quality
@@Iamtongue Can't be helped. Fast wide angles will always be large, just physics. Just compare the Viltrox 13mm f/1.4 vs Sony 20mm f/1.8. Viltrox is a monster compared to Sony.
It’s a great lens, a beast! Fantastic quality for the price, but that size and weight is just too much for me personally and that holds me back from getting it… I’m always been a fan of 105mm on ff, and I wish this was or Fuji could release a 70mm which would be closer to that field of view in a f1.4 version which is more of a size and weight of the new 56… Fuji should definitively close that gap between 56 and 90 with fast aperture prime and xf70mm f1.4 that weighs around 450g would be great addition to the line imo…
I have the 56mm f1.2, the 90mm f2 and now the Viltrox 75mm f1.2. I would say if there is any disadvantage with the Viltrox it’s the weight. The AF is as good as the 56mm (I have the original 56mm lens not mk2) but not as good as the 90mm f2. But the image quality from the Viltrox is superb. I tend to use it on my XH2s with the battery pack and it sits well on that combo. However overall I’m delighted with it. Already have some sooc images and I’m delighted with them.
Man, people hate swirly bokeh but I think it’s awesome. When I see a photo with that bokeh I’m always like, “ ooh, what lens is THAT?!” It’s ok, everyone else can have their “creamy” bokeh and boring photos!
I made a video about it 2 years ago when I wasn't as popular haha you can watch it here... ruclips.net/video/uJdjmRLQmYA/видео.html&ab_channel=Iamtongue
The video af racks focus smooth I like that.. I wouldn’t use manual focus on it. I like the look it gives for video but this is not but I don’t use it often. I use it for some of my b-roll product shots from time to time. But I really need space to use it.
Would you recommend a used old 56 1.2 or this 75 viltrox? Looking for indoor and outdoor portraits.documenting family photos.Hope to hear back with your thoughts.
hey! please review the sayang 75mm f1.8 for the x mount. I have looking at it right now as I type this message for you. arrived today so will be testing but wanted your opinion. maybe a comparison with the viltron 1.2
I am going to japan soon and I plan to sell my 18-55 and buy the viltrox 13 1.4, fuji 35mm f2 and I cannot decide between the xf 56 1.2 wr or the viltrox 75. I think my main concern is if the weight of the 75 will be too much even if i buy a hand grip for my xt3 also the size may affect my street shots. Any chance you could let me know which you think is the better option?
Is anyone else's focus ring really sticky or stiff? Mine isn't smooth as butter like my Fuji lenses and it's borderline unusable when trying to manual focus just because of how jumpy it is. Wondering if I have a bad copy... otherwise it's an amazing lens. :\

The 75mm F1.2 is a banger!
Hows the video autofocus performance?
I have the Viltrox 75mm f1.2. Amazing lens. I sold my 50mm f1.0 and 90mm f2 because of this lens.
Awesome!
It's completely different focal length and purpose.
50 f1.0 has no alternative if you need to shoot portraits in a tight spaces or small apartments for example.
Dude you ARE one of the cool kids. I only watch you and pal2tech for fuji stuff
Thanks man 🫰

Thanks for watching dude :D
Nice shots dude!! Viltrox is really upping their game with lenses!
Thanks bro! Ya it's crazy how far they've come
Love it so far! Haven’t owned the 90, but the 75 is really incredible minus the weight
Sold my 56 mm 1,2 R...and get this monster beauty....thank you Tongue...love ya!
Good choice!
Eventually I’ll get this lens. I have the 90 f2 so I’m in no hurry. I was worried about AF speed, glad they made it better with firmware. I’ll give Viltrox credit, they do update their lenses to make them better.
Ya it's not bad, it performs well!
I am a huge fan of the 75mm, I am awaiting for the 27mm. I would love a 50mm 1.2 Viltrox Pro so a 40-75-112 1.2 FOV set. Viltrox are you listening!!!
Ya viltrox should make an f1.2 set and call it a day. 🤣 gimme a 35mm f1.2 , 23mm f1.2 and take my money
I was thinking of getting the 90mm but the viltrox does hurt my pockets a bit less 😅
It’s honestly that much of a difference now. The 90 goes for pretty cheap on the used market
But that 75mm seems to be the more versatile
HAHA ya dude! I feel you
@@johnmacaspac410 the 75mm is wider.. this would help me in a wedding venue with less than ideal lighting
I love your confidence
THANK YOU :)
Nice review! Almost 10k! 🥳
almost!!! 🙈

I think the 90mm feels slightly faster
Killin it as always bro!
thanks adam!

Honestly the 90mm f2 is really good! I prefer that over the 56mm
I have it on my XT5 and love it.
Awesome review 👌 I bought and tested out the 75mm lens and the images were great until I used my gf80mm on my gfx50r and 😮 nothing comes close to the gf80mm but the viltrox is a huge bargain and still fantastic image quality
Man that GF 80mm f1.7 is one of the prettiest lens I’ve ever tried
There's a 27mm f/1.2 by Viltrox coming out right? The XF18mm f/1.4, 27mm f/1.2 and 75mm f/1.2 could make a solid 3 lens set.
ya that would be an awesome set. But that 27mm f1.2 looks bigger than the 75mm f1.2
@@Iamtongue Can't be helped. Fast wide angles will always be large, just physics. Just compare the Viltrox 13mm f/1.4 vs Sony 20mm f/1.8. Viltrox is a monster compared to Sony.
Nice photos. I'm interested in comparing the Viltrox to the Samyang 75mm 1.8 X.
if I can get one in my hands I'll do a video
who is the couple at 7:45?! theyre super cute models!
ya good looking couple!
It’s a great lens, a beast!

You had me at the BB reference😮
I am hte one who knocks
Your reviews are much better, on my wavelength Sir :)
Cheers Sir 🍻
I actually woke up 4am to preorder this. Might do the same with the 27mm f1.2 they teased. 😂
Shieeet haha
Really like your channel )
Would be great to review a fuji 50mm f1.0 lens 😁
It's really bulky ))
I made a video about it 2 years ago when I wasn't as popular haha

Silent AF similar to Fuji LR? What's it like shooting video with this?

The 56mm is a bit more versatile 75mm is too tight for indoors
hey! please review the sayang 75mm f1.8 for the x mount. I have looking at it right now as I type this message for you. arrived today so will be testing but wanted your opinion. maybe a comparison with the viltron 1.2
If I can get one in my hands I’ll do a video.. it’s really hard getting them because I am a small channel.
I have this lens, it's obscenely accurate and sharp
Very sharp!
I wonder if I can use this to shoot basketball? Or would the CAF just be useless?
I want the 56mm WR for versatility but don't have the cash to burn anymore. Contemplating this one or the sigma 56mm.
the sigma 56mm looks like a great value though!
Love your shirt!
Hahah thank you! Only real fans would recognize it!
this is my favorite lens after 70-300 and 16-80
sickkk
My question with ultra fast lenses is, is it sharper on the edges at f2 than my f2 lenses?
I don’t have an f2 lens to test out that theory.
I am going to japan soon and I plan to sell my 18-55 and buy the viltrox 13 1.4, fuji 35mm f2 and I cannot decide between the xf 56 1.2 wr or the viltrox 75. I think my main concern is if the weight of the 75 will be too much even if i buy a hand grip for my xt3 also the size may affect my street shots. Any chance you could let me know which you think is the better option?
Honestly both lenses the 56 and the viltrox is going to make your lens a bit front heavy. But the 56 is the lighter choice but not by much.
I'm loving mine. No regrets.
NOR EGRETS!
Can I use this viltrox 75mm f1.2 a6700 APS-C camera? Tell me
yes
Great video! I love to have it, but I don’t need it 🙇🏻🙇🏻🙇🏻🙇🏻! 75mm is classic range; and at 1.2 mmmmmmmuacs 👌🫠
thanks for watching jose :D
Oh man... do I get it? :) Great points man!
Get it Jerred and review it for us 😅

Yup I mentioned this. Maybe it needs time breaking in.
Just received mine a few hours ago. Seems like it came with the firmware already on the lens which is awesome. Cant wait to test this bad mofo out.
Tell me how you like it :D
@@Iamtongue Used it for a bit last night at a friend bbq. It’s incredible. Extremely sharp and the colors are brilliant. Very impressed.
Are y’all stoked for the rumored X-S20
ever since i got the xt5 my excitement went down cuz it's going to be the samae sensor as the xs10.
"I am the one who knocks" *insta sub
Thanks Tyler! 😆
If I didn’t buy the 50, this would be the one
50mm f1.0?
@@Iamtongue yessir
Probably too expensive but it’s the lens to end all lenses
All of Viltrox's lenses have 0.1x magnification, except for their 85mm.
is that a problem?
Not really, it's just a little odd that they've all been like that so far. 😄 Personally, I like to have at least 0.2x.
I recently cured my GAS but after this video.......😅😅😅
The only way to get rid of GAS is with MORE GAS!
Nikon dont have fast apsc lens. Try comparing this lens with z 50/1.8s ; its better, cheaper and full frame, lol
I wonder what would happen to the people carrying Canon or Nikon 85mm f1.2 lens 😂
Lmao 🤣
Hehe you funny, good job.
Thanks :D
Ia the bokeh swirly tho
👍
80 to 90% face ?? What …. What movies do you watch ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
