Lens OverviewViltrox 23mm T1.5

The Viltrox 23mm T1.5 is a prime cinema lens designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Built around a wide-angle focal length of 23mm and a fast maximum aperture of T1.5, this lens is well-suited for shooting in challenging lighting conditions where a large aperture makes a meaningful difference. It is a manual focus lens, which aligns with standard cinema production workflows where precise, repeatable focus pulls are a priority.

The lens accepts 62mm filters, giving cinematographers and photographers access to a wide range of ND, polarizing, and specialty filter options. Weighing in at 500g, it offers a solid, purposeful build that feels at home on a professional rig without adding excessive load. The Micro Four Thirds mount ensures broad compatibility across the MFT mirrorless camera ecosystem.

There is no image stabilization on board, so users will need to account for stabilization at the camera body or rig level. As a prime lens with a fixed 23mm focal length in the wide-angle range, it encourages deliberate composition and delivers consistent optical character across a shoot.

DescriptionViltrox 23mm T1.5

The Viltrox 23mm T1.5 Cinema Lens is a prime, manual focus wide-angle lens built specifically for the Micro Four Thirds mirrorless system. Its T1.5 maximum aperture makes it a strong choice when light levels drop, providing the kind of exposure latitude that cinema shooters depend on. The 23mm focal length sits in the wide-angle range, offering a broader perspective well-suited to environmental storytelling, interior scenes, and documentary-style work.

With a 62mm filter thread, the lens integrates easily into filter systems already in use on set. At 500g, it has a confident, production-ready heft without being burdensome on a handheld or rigged setup. There is no image stabilization, so stabilization should be handled at the rig or camera body level.

The manual focus design is intentional for cinema use, enabling smooth, controlled focus transitions. Compatible with the Micro Four Thirds camera system, this lens is a focused tool for video-first MFT shooters.
