Description — Viltrox 23mm f/1.4
The Viltrox 23mm f/1.4 is a prime wide-angle lens built specifically for APS-C mirrorless cameras. It is offered in Sony E, Fujifilm X, and Canon EF-M mounts, making it accessible to a wide range of mirrorless shooters. The f/1.4 maximum aperture provides meaningful light-gathering capability and allows for selective focus with a shallow depth of field — useful for portraits, street photography, and available-light situations.
Weighing just 260g, the lens keeps your kit light without sacrificing the versatility of a fast prime. Both autofocus and manual focus are supported, so photographers can adapt their approach to whatever the scene demands. The 52mm filter thread is a practical and common size, keeping filter accessories accessible and affordable.
It is worth noting that the lens does not include image stabilization, so handheld low-light work will depend on your camera body or shooting technique. The 23mm focal length in the wide-angle range suits a broad range of subjects and shooting styles on APS-C format cameras.
