If you're looking for an easy, budget-friendly way to take your portrait photography to the next level, the Viltrox AF 56mm f1.4 lens is an excellent choice. Designed for APS-C mirrorless cameras, this Viltrox prime lens delivers an 85mm equivalent medium telephoto focal length, a favourite for portrait work. Pair that with the ultra-bright f1.4 maximum aperture and you can achieve the soft, blurred backgrounds that make subjects stand out.

The STM autofocus motor provides smooth, quiet operation, making this lens well suited to video as well as action photography. Its compact, lightweight design also makes it a practical companion for shooting on the go.

The Viltrox AF 56mm f1.4 features a 10-element, 9-group optical construction, including an ED element and a High Refraction Index lens element to help maintain sharpness and reduce aberrations. An HD Nano multilayer coating is also applied for improved optical performance.

Despite weighing less than 300 grams, this lens is built to last with an all-metal construction, brass bayonet mount and gold-plated electrical contacts.

The f1.4 maximum aperture is easy to control using the manual aperture ring, with an 'A' setting also available for automatic operation. Eye AF is supported on compatible cameras, and a micro USB interface is included for future firmware updates.
