SUMMARY
Neil Redfern tested the Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.2 Lab II lens in real-world conditions, including a wedding and portrait shoots, comparing it against his Sony 35mm f/1.8. The lens offers notable sharpness at its widest f/1.2 aperture, which aids in low-light shooting by allowing lower ISO settings. Redfern also highlighted its effective autofocus tracking and pleasing bokeh rendering. However, the lens is significantly heavier at 910g compared to the Sony 35mm f/1.8.
