I tried out the Viltrox 75mm f/1.2 portrait lens for Nikon Z DX APSC cameras in this video. The Viltrox 75 is the first lens in their "PRO" line. It is a great performer with virtually no optical flaws. The fast f/1.2 aperture gives you excellent subject separation and a very creamy bokeh. The aperture also helps in low-light situations. I was very impressed with this lens.

To me, this is the most exciting APS-C lens to be released since the Laowa 65mm macro lens. The equivalent of a full frame 112mm f/1,8 is impressive!

@PhilThach Год назад

Hi Micael! I agree, it’s quite an achievement. What is even more impressive is it’s stellar optical performance!

@adrianalfordphotography Год назад

Wonder where you saw it on the internet with someone using it on a Z7 🤔 😅 I know after using this lens it certainly deserves it pro tag! Thanks for sharing your opinion of the lens.

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you, Adrian! I've seen you and Snapchick (Leigh & Raymond) use this lens on a Z7 and another reviewer used it on a Z8. As long as it's a high-res FX camera, it works just fine as you demonstrated.

@davidsaylors Год назад

That is a cool lens. It is similar to the Signma lenses that I have been using that Hassan loaned me. Also, thanks for the knowledge dump about the ND filter. Lots of people don’t realize that. The photos also show for themselves, third party glass has come ALONG way…👍

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you, David! I'm very happy with this lens. Now I need a Z90. :)

Well done Viltrox, they are truly in the game !!! Great review and pictures Phil ! Not sure how many bird portraits you will be able to get with this one! Ha ha, good day !

I have their 13mm 1.4 for Fuji which is a great lens. They’ve stepped it up of late. They are all on the heavy side though. Larger than some full frame glass.

@PhilThach Год назад

I have that 13 mm 1.4 for Nikon, I agree, it’s very good. That’s a very good point about weight.

@pepper6253 Год назад

Very nice review, I have the Vilrox forNikon 56mm and love it. Phil , yes college students are always hungry lol. Cool robot delivery service.

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you! The 56 is very good too!

@gnphoto21 Год назад

Nice video! You got me thinking again. The Nikon 85mm 1.8 is on my shopping list for next year. That lens is about $700. I will consider this now.

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you, George!

@BillWhitworth Год назад

Absolutely love this lens on my Fuji cameras!

@PhilThach Год назад

It’s outstanding and Fuji got their version months ahead of Nikon and Sony.

@bobdrawbaugh4207 Год назад

Looks like a nice lens. They’ve also released a 27mm pro. It should be good to. You made some nice portraits of your Daughter.

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you! I have my eye on that 27mm 1.2. They usually release a new lens for Fuji-film X first and then, a few months later, release a version for Nikon and Sont APSC. So, hopefully, I'll be able to review that new 27 in early 2024.

@MrTmiket0007 Год назад

Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful video like always Phil, that lens is beautiful, I am looking forward to get it for Sony. 👍🤗

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you, Miguel! I would have loved to test a Sony version on my a6700 but I was happy to get a Nikon version. One day they will make a Z90 and I'll be ready! :)

For my Z5 I have the 24, 35, and 85mm that I shoot quite a bit. But I want an APSC for this lens extremely bad. It looks so impressive.

@TimChilders Год назад

Great lens! Viltrox does some really good lenses!

@PhilThach Год назад

I don't do portraits enough to purchase one of those $2000+ dollar first-party primes, but this lens produces similar results for 1/4 the price. It's quite an achievement.

@1955mlynch Год назад

Interesting video. Many companies claim weather sealing, but unless they give an IP international standard rating of greater than 55 the claims or "weather resistent" or "weatherproof" are just talk. Most iPhones are rated to IP 67. Olympus is the only company I am aware of that publishes its IP ratings.

@PhilThach Год назад

That's a very good point. Still, some attempt at rain and dustproofing is better than none.

Looks like a sweet lens and you made some great photos. One thing not mentioned, did you purchase these recent lenses for review?

@PhilThach Год назад

Thank you, Leon! The Laowa 90 2x Macro for Sony and this Viltrox 75 1.2 for Nikon Z Dx were both review samples sent to me by the companies. I got to review two really great lenses in a row!

It's a pretty special portrait lens and a huge value.

@tannerjagim4241 11 месяцев назад

Could we potentially see the Viltrox lens in a sport or action setting? I’d like to know how something like the z50 with this lens does for indoor basketball or football type photos? Just to see if the lens can keep up with movement?

@PhilThach 11 месяцев назад

I'll give that a try at some point for sure!

@jaycstudiossg 2 месяца назад

still waiting for ff version

@drashyr 9 месяцев назад

So would you use it for sports? For volleyball to e precise? I'm using 70-200 2.8 but would love to get my iso down but because very poor light conditions I cant and I wondered if that lense would work, maybe not for extremely fast actions but maybe for some ?

@PhilThach 9 месяцев назад

I think it’s struggles to focus too much on the Z 50 and I think it is the fault of the Z50. If Nikon had a better APC camera then Maybe. The next issue is the viltrox focus motor is a little slow for sports. This is an amazing portrait lens but I’m just not sure about it for sports.

@drashyr 9 месяцев назад

@@PhilThach thanks for fast response, I must say I'm still tempted to try because of the price :) If I end up buying I will post results.

@drashyr 9 месяцев назад

So I bought this lens and today had a chance to use it for volleyball match and you were right AF is to slow, so lots of shots were missed. That said when AF did hit right I got pictures with iso below 1000 which is very nice. I could not get AF-C on my Z6ii to work so I shot with AF-S which is probably why number of missed shots is rather high. The fact that I have Z6 less than a month also did not helped :) But for anyone wondering - for indoor sport you should probably go for something with faster AF.

@davepastern Год назад

really wish they'd concentrate on full frame...there's bugger all APS-C cameras out there...

@PhilThach Год назад

Honestly, there are plenty of great full frame lenses out there. Not many APSC, especially for Nikon. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see Viltrox make more full frame glass too, but I think I appreciate these APSC lenses more.

@davepastern Год назад

@@PhilThach yeah no good for us FF users though...

@MrEcliptor Год назад

@@PhilThachI agree with you about the lack of quality APS-C lenses. Nearly all the high end glass is full frame. Also, both of my canon full frame mirrorless cameras (RP, R6) have crop mode so I can use the APS-C glass at a reduced resolution without issues.

@nicolaslopez9689 11 месяцев назад

Est t'il meilleur que le sigma 56 mm 1.4 ?

@PhilThach 11 месяцев назад

I think if you have room to get a little further from you subject the answer is yes, but if you don't then no.

The Viltrox 75mm and 27mm are one of the best lenses out there for my xt5. Viltrox is a Chinese brand so this is one way for China to try take over the world😅😅😅

LOL! I need to try the 27mm at some point.
