    I bought the first version when I bought my a7III a few months ago. The lens rocks. I wanted the Zeiss 85mm but I couldn’t swing it with getting a new laptop as well. IMO, the differences between the Viltrox and the Sony 85mm wasn’t worth $200. Plus, there’s a firmware upgrade out there that makes your Viltrox an F1.6. I haven’t gotten around to it.

    Thanks Omar, I thought you did a review already of the Viltrox 85mm version 1 for Fuji. I have the version 1 for Fuji. I wanted to know what the differences were between version 1 and version 2 for Fuji. I wanted to know if version 2 was better or what changed between the two versions.

    I recently got these lens and I love what it can do :) As for the issues with refocusing the object coming towards the camera: I think Viltrox corrected with 1.1.7 or 1.1.8 software update because it's not the case anymore, even on my old A7II. Just to let you know they listen and react which we all should notice and appreciate in this world full of semi-tested and half-functional devices ;). Thanks for the great review and the channel I just subscribed to!

    I recently purchased the Viltrox 85mm 1.8 from WBPhoto on Ebay - The focus on my A7r3 was Rubbish at best + The lens locked up within my first 20 shots. Combine this with some really poor firmware on their disorganised website this is by no means a good buy. Perhaps I was unlucky but I will be going to Sony / Sigma that way you can at least be sure that the focus system will work with Sony - The eye focus was more like a nose or mouth focus it was really inaccurate. Finally, Watch out buying this lens or any lenses on Ebay - WBPHOTO claims that the lens comes from the UK - When it came to returning the lens I had to spend £36 at my own expense to return it to China - The sony is double the price for a reason!

    How does the bokeh look when stopped down to f2.8 and further? I have seen couple of occasions where this version II lens seems to have misaligned aperure blades, which create an uglyish irregular bokeh shape when stopped down.

    Lo utilicé en una comunión, tardó en enfocar unos 4 segundos.
    Y le dí otra oportunidad en una Boda. Otra vez tardó una barbaridad en enfocar, lo cual lo he terminado devolviendo. No me es de fiar.

    Since the Sony 85mm f/1.8 is often available used at a very decent price (I got mine for $450 U.S. Dollars in minty condition from Adorama), I don't see any reason for choosing the Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 (or the Tokina ATX 85mm for that matter).
    Now, the Samyang/Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 in e-mount is another ball game and I might have some reasons to choose this lens over the f/1.8 of the Sony. However, I plan to keep my Sony f/1.8...
    BTW: I would always choose one of the auto focus 85mm lenses over a lens such as the Viltrox f/1.8 manual focus, even for portraits. I shoot my portraits in continuous auto focus with eye auto focus enables which will compensate for the tiny distance changes even when the subject and camera are not moving...
