Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 Overview

By B&H Photo's

Ideal for landscapes, cityscapes, street scenes, architecture, and more, the Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 XF is a sleek ultra-wide prime lens characterized by its portability, advanced optical design, and intuitive handling. Its fast f/1.4 maximum aperture balances size and speed and is suitable for working in available lighting conditions. It offers greater control over depth of field and provides a soft bokeh effect at wider apertures while also limiting the overall size and weight of the lens for everyday use. Designed for smooth video capture, the lens effectively eliminates focus breathing when changing focusing distances while shooting video, and an STM autofocus motor provides fast and responsive AF down to a minimum object distance of just 8.7".

Optical Design
  • Ultra-wide prime lens designed for APS-C-format FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless cameras where it provides a 20mm equivalent to full-frame 35mm focal length.
  • Bright f/1.4 maximum aperture suits working in difficult lighting conditions and helps to maintain a relatively compact form factor.
  • 14 lens elements in 11 groups provide a sophisticated optical design. Two aspherical lens elements are optimized for distortion and off-axis optical aberration allowing the lens to maintain excellent resolution throughout the entire focusing range.
  • Four ED (extra-low dispersion) lens elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations to produce greater clarity and color accuracy no matter which aperture you choose.
  • Designed for smooth video capture, the lens effectively eliminates focus breathing when changing focusing distances while shooting video.
  • STM autofocus motor provides fast and responsive AF down to a minimum object distance of just 8.7".
  • Nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 Reviews

Clear, bright, and Affordable WIDE Prime Lens

By Lorenzo
Rated 5 out of 5

Bought this for Fuji X-mount. Absolutely love this lens. The build quality is as good as any native Fuji lens, and the image quality is on par. The aperture ring turns smoothly with satisfying detents and the focusing ring is also smooth, if you're using manual focus. The image quality is clear and bright. There aren't a lot of options for wide angle lenses for X-mount...so definitely put this on your shortlist if you're looking for one. I took it to try at a friend's recital, and the width and breadth and scale that you can get exceeded expectations. In a darkened concert hall, this had no problem capturing a good image, and I'm certain your sensor will give up before this does. The only thing I can think of that may be a con is that this is a chunky lens - bigger than the viltrox 23, 33...it's great for city/architecture photos but you will definitely stand out in the crowd.

I bought one month ago this Lens for my Fuji XT4 and it's been making great quality photos, the brightness is amazing, is not a heavy lens and come with a little bag to keep it. I didn't know about Viltrox before I bought this Len's and I will keep buying staff from this Brand!!

Simply the Best

Perfect lens for a gimbal, long shots and unusual close ups. Very sharp and versatile. Once you use it, you can be without it.

Great gift

This is a great lens. The optics are outstanding and it creates great photos. I've used it for landscapes, city photography, portraits, and even some macro work on larger flowers. It's sharp wide open, but stopped down it's razor sharp edge to edge. Bokeh is limited by the focal length but is smooth when you set the lens up to create it. Distortion is just right and allows for creative control without looking weird. I have teenage daughters who always want their whole outfit in the photo along with context. This lens allows for that type of shot even in a crowd. They refer to this lens as my 0.5 because the field of view is similar to the 0.5 iPhone camera. I also plan on using it for some night sky photos but have been limited to my yard so far and the field of view is too wide for that. My only complaint is the lack of weather sealing. Especially in a landscape lens, weather sealing would be nice.

Great Image Quality

This is a great lens, especially when you factor in the price. The image quality if fantastic. The lens comes with a mental lens hood, Fujifilm should take note from Viltrox.

I have purchased 3 of the lenses for a Z 30 . As of the new firmware update they are not working. As of 5-12-2023. I did a test with a Z5 and ZFC and Z5 . They are working fine. Beware and I hope Nikon fixes this issue. I have the 13MM and 23MM and 56MM
