Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB Z

Viltrox announced the release of the AF 35mm F1.2 LAB Z, which completes its Nikon Z autofocus ecosystem. The AF 35mm F1.2 LAB Z enters the market just as many photographers and filmmakers take a moment to reassess their gear and prepare for new creative goals in the coming year.

The F1.2 aperture is for shallow depth, night scenes, and dramatic portrait work. Viltrox’s LAB-series 15/10 glass element optical construction (5x ED, 3x HR and 2x ASPH) emphasizes resolution, color fidelity, and aberration control. The sturdy and reliable professional-grade build handles demanding scenarios, such as weddings, editorial, commercial, environmental portraits, and filmmaking. Optimized autofocus, powered by the Viltrox Quad HyperVCM motor, ensures fast and accurate focusing.

The lens costs $999/€999.
