The Viltrox AF 20mm f/2.8 is a great value lens for the price, offering sharp images with nice bokeh. The build quality is solid, and it performs well, especially for the cost.

This lens is a great value for the price, providing sharp images with nice bokeh. The autofocus works almost silently, and the build quality is solid, especially considering the cost. I would highly recommend this to budget-conscious wide-angle enthusiasts.

Pros
  • Excellent value for money
  • Sharp images with nice bokeh
  • Solid build quality
  • Good performance for the cost
Cons
  • Lacks weather sealing
  • Distortion and heavy vignetting at f/2.8
  • May experience glare issues in bright light

The Viltrox AF 20mm f/2.8 offers sharpness from center to corners at f/5.6, with solid construction and good close-up image quality.

The Viltrox AF 20mm f/2.8 is a great budget option for a full-frame lens, priced around $160. Its autofocus works almost silently, and the lens is constructed with a metal lens mount. While it lacks weather sealing, the build quality is solid. It performs well in terms of image quality, providing sharpness from center to corners at f/5.6. However, there is a bit of distortion and heavy vignetting at f/2.8, which improves when stopped down. The lens also handles close-up image quality and bright light fairly well. Overall, the Viltrox AF 20mm f/2.8 offers fantastic value for the price, making it a great option for wide-angle enthusiasts on a budget.

While it may have some issues with distortion and heavy vignetting at f/2.8, the Viltrox AF 20mm f/2.8 provides fantastic value for the price, making it a great option for wide-angle enthusiasts on a low budget.
