The VILTROX AF 56mm F1.7 Lens is a compact and high-performance prime lens designed specifically for APS-C mirrorless cameras, making it an excellent choice for portrait photographers, content creators, and videographers. With its classic portrait focal length and bright F1.7 aperture, this lens allows you to capture stunning subject separation, soft bokeh, and impressive low-light performance.

Engineered for everyday shooting and creative work, the 56mm focal length (approx. 85mm equivalent) is ideal for portraits, lifestyle photography, street scenes, and cinematic video.

The quiet AF motor also minimizes focus noise, which is essential for video recording.

Optically, the VILTROX AF 56mm F1.7 features a refined lens design that helps reduce chromatic aberration and distortion while maintaining excellent sharpness from center to edge. The multi-layer coating improves contrast and color accuracy while reducing flare and ghosting, even when shooting in backlit conditions.

Despite its powerful performance, the lens maintains a lightweight and compact form factor, making it easy to carry for long shoots or travel photography. Its solid construction ensures durability, while the minimalist exterior design pairs well with modern mirrorless camera systems.

Compatible with Sony E, Fujifilm X, and Nikon Z APS-C mounts (variant dependent), the VILTROX AF 56mm F1.7 is a versatile and affordable upgrade for photographers looking to elevate their portrait work without compromising on quality or portability.
