DF Series sets a New Benchmark for Full-Frame Digitals

Full-Frame Ultra-Wide-Angle Large Aperture Auto Focus Lens

 

Expanding Horizons---AF 16mm F1.8 Z

 

Setting a New Standard for the Viltrox DF Series

Ultimate Image Quality, Broadening Its Scope

 

 

AF 16mm F1.8 Z breaks conventional barriers with its ultra-wide perspective, reproducing fine image details. Expanding to the vast while capturing the nuances.

High resolution and exceptional resolving power take image quality to new heights, ensuring an experience of ultimate clarity.

 

With 4 ED lenses, it effectively suppresses chromatic aberration and color fringing, delivering true-to-life colors and aiming for high-standard imagery.

High-definition nano-multilayer coatings efficiently reduce glare and ghosting, maintaining sharpness even in complex lighting conditions.
