The Viltrox AF 75mm f/1.2 doesn't slot neatly into Viltrox's existing prime lens lineup for APS-C cameras (and currently for Fuji X-mount) - in fact, I'd call it an aberration, an experiment, possibly even a mistake. But what a wonderful mistake.
Viltrox is aiming at high-end, professional photographers with its new "Air Cutter" AF 75mm f/1.2 lens, a large aperture portrait prime designed for Fujifilm X-Mount.
In late August, a Viltrox representative told a prospective customer that Canon had told it to stop producing all RF mount products, and while at the time Canon declined to comment, it now confirms that it did so for violations of its patents.
Canon has ordered lens manufacturer Viltrox to stop selling RF mount products, according to a leaked customer chat text.
The Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 STM lens slots neatly into an existing range of Viltrox primes for APS-C cameras, a focal length that is notably absent from Fujifilm directly. The 13mm, which is equivalent to 20mm on 35mm full-frame, is fairly wide and works well for landscapes or architecture, especially for the low price of $429.
Viltrox is releasing a limited edition set of matte white or shiny red Fujifilm X-mount f/1.4 prime lenses with focal lengths of 23mm, 33mm, and 56mm. The company plans to only produce 500 total units of each color.
The Chinese camera equipment company Viltrox has launched a new Mark V Canon EF/EF-S to Sony E lens mount adapter with a unique design and a host of handy features.

While not yet listed on Viltrox's web store, the rumored 85mm f/1.8 STM lens for Nikon Z has been listed on Amazon for $399, nearly $200 less expensive than the Nikkor Z 85mm f1/.8 S lens even after a $100 rebate.
Viltrox has added the 33mm f/1.4 and 56mm f/1.4 APS-C prime lenses for Sony E-Mount to its online store. The 56mm f/1.4 looks very similar to the Fujifilm X-Mount version that became available in September.
Earlier today, Viltrox released an official statement that "reminds" users of the Fuji X-Pro3 that three of Viltrox' X-Mount lenses can actually cause damage to your camera body, and should be avoided.
If you're a Fuji user looking for an equivalent to the "nifty fifty" lenses available for Nikon and Canon DSLRs, you've probably considered picking up Fuji's old XF 35mm f/1.4 or the XF 35mm f/2. But what if there was a more affordable, faster option out there? The Viltrox 33mm f/1.4 wants to be that lens.
