  • Viltrox just released another amazing lens for the Nikon Z mount. The Viltrox 16mm f1.8 Z is just $550 but is it any good, let's find out in this review. This lens can be a great option for landscape and travel photography, so I went and tested it in the north of Spain.

    Oh! Dear friend, you have this time come from ( your voice says, as I have been listening to your commentaries fir the last one year) great Fujifilm to Nikon.
    I love both the cameras of the two make.

      Thank you, friend! Both Nikon and Fujifilm make great cameras. I am so glad we have Viltrox lenses available for both systems!

      I sold my Fuji XH2 for the Nikon Z8. Andrei you are making me really want this lens. I'd really like to see it perform against that Laowa 10mm. It should be better at low light. I loved my Fujifilm Viltrox 13mm 1.4 lens.

    I have since received this lens and really like its image quality, the price point and its quality. Thank you for assisting in my decision.

    hi mate, do you know if the viltrox 85mm 1.8 works on the nikon zf? I've read online that the lens doesn't work. Is that true? thanks

    I always like your reviews and i am buying a Laowa 10mm 0 distortion f2.8. This almost makes me want to muy the Viltrox 16mm 1.8.
    No really I'd like this lens but the Laowa 10mm 0 distortion f2.8 is still in my radar range.
    I'd like to see these 2 lenses compared.
