Custom Button function 1says in the brochure is focus lock. How do you get it to work?
Asked by: James
The focus hold button on the Viltrox AF 16mm f/1.8 FE Lens (Sony E) will not work with all cameras, unfortunately. The cameras that are compatible with this function have a section in the menu under custom settings that says focus hold button. There you can program what this button does. To use it as a focus lock you need to press this button when the camera is set to autofocus. That will cancel autofocus. You can then recompose and press the shutter button to take a photo. Release the focus lock button while half pressing the shutter and autofocus will be restarted.

Any idea how many Kase Revolution magnetic filters (77mm) can be stacked before vignetting occurs?
Asked by: David
Usually with a very wide angle 16mm lens like the Viltrox AF 16mm f/1.8 Lens (Nikon Z) on a full frame camera, only a very thin filter can be used and even then you will still see dark shading in the corners. We do not recommend stacking filters.
