Viltrox AIR 15mm F1.7 X-Mount Review
Viltrox’s AIR series has become a favorite of a lot of APS-C photographers for a very good reason. These lenses have all punched way above their weight optically, and while the build formula is simple, these have all been very…

Viltrox Pro AF 27mm F1.2 Portrait Session (on X-H2)

Viltrox Pro AF 27mm F1.2 X-Mount Review
I completely raved over Viltrox’s amazing Pro AF 75mm F1.2 lens for Fuji at the end of 2022. It delivered pro-grade build, good autofocus (that got better via firmware updates), and one of the finest optical performances I had seen…

Fujinon XF 23mm F1.4 R LM WR Review

Fujinon XF 18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR Review

Fujinon XF 8mm F3.5 WR Review

Fujinon XF 33mm F1.4 LM WR Image Gallery
One of the biggest advantages for APS-C is the ability to have large aperture prime lenses that are still compact and lightweight. The Fujinon XF 33mm F1.4 R LM WR weighs only 360g while boasting an extremely nice build quality,…
