Review VerdictIt's almost getting boring - another Viltrox lens, another excellent performer. The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.8 EVO produces great center quality straight from f/1.8, and the borders/corners aren't a slouch, either. At medium aperture settings, it even reaches greatness. Image distortions are very low, and vignetting is nicely auto-corrected. Lateral as well as axial CAs are low, although we wouldn't sign off on the APO claim yet here. The quality of the bokeh is pretty good for a moderately wide-angle lens. In terms of build quality, the 35mm f/1.8 EVO stays true to what we've seen from other EVO lenses. The tightly assembled metal body feels very sturdy, and there's at least a mount gasket to help against the elements. The AF works just fine and silently. Overall, another easy value recommendation.

Where can this lens be adapted?

The Nikon Z mount has a flange distance of 16 mm. A plain adapter fits a camera whose flange distance is at least 1.46 mm shorter. How lens adapters work

  • Native lenses set the aperture, and often the focus, electronically. On a plain adapter they do not work. Use an electronic adapter made for this pair; for many pairs nobody makes one. Fully manual lenses are the exception.
  • Nikon Z DX lenses cover APS-C only.
  • Nikon ZNative

No plain adapter reaches infinity focus on: Sony E, Canon RF, Fujifilm X, L-Mount, Micro Four Thirds, Fujifilm G (GFX), Canon EF-M, Canon EF, Nikon F.
