Always a treat. Thanks Matti

Thank you for watching.

Hi Matti, every Viltrox lens you have shown, have always been a pleasant shooting experience you had. Nice Black and White photos and I loved shot with the Motorcycle. Great Shadows and great image quality. Thanks Matti for your thoughts on this Viltrox lens. 😊

[@mattisulanto]

Thanks for dropping by once again.

[@seaeagles6025]

Your very welcome Matti 😊

seems to be a sililar issue as with early 10 f2 laowa for m43 ... the corection stored in raw file was copied from previous lens with correction due to the reason that the buffer in camera body was not wiped properly.

This is quite strange that a 3rd party manufacturer made a lens for Nikon Z mount first then Sony FE mount later. Usually, it is the other way around. Viltrox lens looks pretty good for a 3rd party (non-Japanese) lens.

[@mattisulanto]

I think the main reason is that Sony already has a similar lens in their lineup. Much more expensive though but the same specs. But it still is weird.

Compare it with Z40 f2
