Viltrox has announced the Viltrox 27mm f/1.2 Pro autofocus lens (buy here) has come to Sony E mount and Nikon Z mount. As with the original AF 27mm f/1.2 Pro released for Fuji X mount late last year, the two new lenses are also for APS-C bodies.
The lens offers a field of view equivalent to 40.5mm on full-frame, with a super wide and bright f/1.2 aperture. For a lens with a maximum aperture this wide, it’s very inexpensive, too.
Viltrox AF 27mm F1.2 Pro – Now for Sony and Nikon
The video above is from the launch of the Fuji X version of the lens, although it largely still applies to the two new ones. Viltrox must agree, as they haven’t released new videos for the new Nikon Z and Sony E mount versions.
The only real difference between the original Fuji X version and the two new ones is the mount. I suggested in the original release post for the Fuji X version that we’d probably see Sony E and Nikon Z mount options at some point, as Viltrox had also released its AF 75mm f/1.2 Pro lens (buy here) for all three mounts as well.
There are still only two lenses in the Viltrox f/1.2 Pro APS-C lens series, but hopefully, this is just the beginning, and we’ll see some more options coming in the future.
