To the best of my knowledge, this is the sharpest E-mount lens ever, as ascertained by lenstip.com. Despite that, I only use it at home because it's very heavy. I walk daily with a lighter 75mm lens, leaving this Viltrox at home.

Absolutely amazing lenses I have several of this brand I cannot stress enough how sharp and fast these are. These put native Sony lenses a run for their money. You cannot beat these for what they cost.

I bought this lens shortly before visiting a flower festival, so I had a good opportunity to use this lens with my Sony A6500. The picture quality is pretty good. I also took various pictures of objects in my room ranging from f/1.2 to f/10. This gives you an idea of what the bokeh looks like at f/1.2 as well as what the theoretical max image quality looks like at f/10 and ISO 100. Premium feeling lens with an option to adjust the aperture on the lens instead of only the camera. A minimum focusing distance of 11 in (28cm) lets you get fairly close to objects, but it is NOT a macro lens. My main gripe with the lens is the auto focus. I understand that the lens is big and bulky. That's to be expected for f/1.2 and having premium construction. However, with the size and weight compromise, you should expect better performance. The image quality may be nice, but the auto focus hunts often even in well to moderately lit locations. I didn't bother to test in dark areas because the auto focus is already struggling with sufficient light. YouTube videos mentioned the focus hunting happening often when shooting videos, but I also see it happening for pictures. I'm kind of tempted to return this lens, but I'm holding out hope that Viltrox improves the auto focus in a future firmware update. To understand where I'm coming from, I already have quite a few lenses for my A6500. The Sony 11mm f/1.8 has by far the best auto focus that I've used. I would give it a 10/10 since I haven't used anything better. Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 would be a 9/10. Sigma 18-50mm would be 8/10. This Viltrox 27mm f/1.2 would be 7/10. As a bulky prime lens, I think this lens should be at least on par with the Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 (a zoom lens with better minimum focusing distance). If you need good auto focus, this lens isn’t for you. If you’re ok with dealing with occasional focus hunting or shoot mainly manual, this lens might be worth considering. Look at the pictures I attached and decide for yourself.

Very sharp all the way out in the corners with my full frame sensor, quick focus. Ridiculously good especially given the price, buy with confidence.

Everything, from the build quality, optics, functionality, just everything is amazing for the price. I’ve used $1000 lenses that don’t look as good as this one. Definite instant recommendation.

I had this lens for a good amount of time, the autofocus for video was decent, felt a little cheap for the money i spent on it pro’s •sharp •wide •good enough autofocus cons •expensive •cheaply built •the screen ontop of the lens would act out sometimes •made my camera act up and would freeze up •autofocus was a hit or miss, i had times where the focus wasn’t reliable •focus ring would bind up or feel hard to rotate

Been watching YouTube reviews on this lens and finally decided to pull the trigger and it was the best thing! I’m new to photography and I paired it with the Sony a6700. This lens is very sharp even cropped in. If you’re in the fence like I was, you can go ahead and get it.

I’ve this lens for almost a year now and let me tell you it’s 100% worth the investment. It’s really sharp and clean looking. I love it so much. It’s my favorite lens I own and it’s the only lens I use. I’ve put it on my camera lens and have not taken it off since. It’s a high quality lens for both video and photo. Sometimes it’s hard to nail focus and sometimes the chrome abration shows. But it’s not that noticeable. Worth the inclement!
