I bought this lens 2 weeks ago. It's an awesome lens for landscape photography! There was a 10 - 15 second delay for the Z9 to recognized the lens. There is a firmware update & the problem was fixed!
Purchased this lens a few months ago for real estate photography and videography. It's especially useful for video in low-light situations. I would have preferred it if Nikon had an alternative, but it's difficult to argue with the value proposition.
question. when shooting video for homes . is ur ibis off? i feel like shooting without ibis produces more natural picture. i don’t like what going on in the corners when ibis is on.
@@Vahagraphy you don’t need party when you guys first party just a cheap cheaper. Give me a few years you’re gonna be very sorry that asked for 3rd party lol. You go worry about getting me my z500.
Really nice build quality. The lens has a pretty good design but I just don't understand why Viltrox insists on putting that ugly bright red badge on it. Does anyone even know what those letters mean?
Love the sample shots and video. For the price looks very promising. Great review. Thanks for all the hard work.
Good stuff V! Lots of lens options are always a must!

@Vahagraphy I have not tried switching off IBIS, but all my video has been shot using a DJI RS4 gimbal, which would complicate the comparison.
Great review looks like an awesome option for Nikon Z owners at a very affordable price.
I need one for Canon😂
@ they already have it it’s $299 only if you would look third-party boy

The Review I have waited for
hopefully it helped . given ur other comments it did hehe
An excellent review!! Nicely done V.
thank you bro. appreciate it
Perfect Astro Lens to go with my Z 20mm f1.8 S Lens
Sadly the Vignetting will not allow me to purchase it as I NEED f1.8 >> I will stick with my 20mm S
it’s not as bad as i made it sound. great lens for the money . on sale now for 4 something
We cant get the Viltrox Brand in South Africa for some reason
probably has to do with trade deals or maybe ?
👌
Maybe just relegate this lens to the APSC group and see if this lens still performs well as a 24mm.
sure but the true magic of buying this is for the 16mm effect

doesn’t bother me . it has to do with the focus motor system i think .
