Yes, really 5 stars - camera and photo

I've been working as a photographer for many years. I needed a long focal length lens for my Sony A7ii. I leave 5 star reviews for truly exceptional quality and reasonably affordable products. I have used this lens, compared it to others and concluded that the Vitrox 85mm meets the 5 star criteria. Sharp, razor sharp and of course Sony's built-in IS makes this a fantastic telephoto lens for video, despite being designed as a portrait lens. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Who knew Viltrox would make such amazing lenses? Take it!

A point off for image stabilization as I'm pretty sure this lens doesn't have it, but it's actually a pretty stable lens (due to the weight compared to my Sony a6500 I think ). The autofocus works great on my Sony Aps-C sensor mirrorless cameras, especially on the a6400 in eye tracking mode. Great bokeh, very fast and accurate autofocus and one of my favorite lenses! Surprisingly impressed with it, now it's in my wedding photo and video kit.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Seniors

Sharp and fast for video

I tested it on my Sony A7iii today. If you've done the research, read the reviews and watched a few youtube videos, this lens works as advertised. It focuses fairly quickly and the images look sharp. I bought it mainly for watching videos and interviews and I am very happy with the performance. Video testing was done in Slog 2 and color grading in Premiere. To me it looks no worse than the Sigma Art 85mm. Keep in mind; it has no af/mf switch. It's quite small for 85mm, but durable.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I have no negative feelings about it, everything is fine
