SUMMARY
Viltrox has introduced three silver APS-C prime lenses for Fujifilm X-Mount: the 9mm f/2.8, 15mm f/1.7, and 25mm f/1.7. These lenses aim to fill focal length and aperture gaps not covered by Fujifilm's own offerings, providing speed, sharpness, and lightweight designs suitable for street and travel photography. The 25mm f/1.7 is highlighted as a standout for its sharpness and contrast, even wide open, and its autofocus performance is noted as fast and smooth for both photo and video. The 15mm f/1.7 offers a unique focal length with good center performance, while the 9mm f/2.8 is sharp across the frame when stopped down. These lenses represent the growing third-party support for Fujifilm's X-Mount, offering compelling performance for their price.
