SUMMARY

Viltrox has released a redesigned version of its 35mm f/1.2 LAB lens, the 35mm f/1.2 LAB (N). This new variant maintains the same optical structure and performance as the original, including its large f/1.2 aperture and robust build. Key changes include the removal of the LED screen, which previously served as a focus and aperture indicator, and the replacement of the multifunctional control ring with a permanent aperture ring. These modifications simplify the lens's feature set, making it more user-friendly for photographers who may not have utilized the screen or the ring's programmable functions.
