As a photographer, every now and again you find a lens that really surprises you.
Id challenge anyone, however, not to be impressed with the Viltrox 85mm.

For starters, youd be pleasantly surprised at just how rock solid this lens feels in hand.
Generally speaking, I carry a minimalist setup of just a wide-angle prime and a narrower telephoto prime.
As it turned out, the 85mm quickly became my number one lens for the entire two-and-a-half-week trip.

85mm is such a unique focal length for street work, too.
Snapping street candids, I was surprised at just how good the images turned out with the Viltrox too.
Colors are deep and saturated, and the bokeh?

Well, to my eyes it’s perfectly adequate.
Its hard to complain here.
