Viltrox AF 35/1.7 Z 35mm
The bright f/1.7 aperture and quiet STM autofocus with Eye AF support make this 170g lens a standout for affordable, low-light photography. Its optical design, incorporating one ED and one aspherical element with nano multi-layer coating, controls aberrations in a remarkably compact package. This lens is best for street photographers and hobbyists using APS-C Fujifilm X-mount cameras who prioritize portability and shallow depth of field on a budget.
