VILTROX LENS 75MM F 1.2 STM (E MOUNT)

Key Features and Characteristics:

1. Ultra-Fast f/1.2 Aperture: This is the headline feature. The f/1.2 maximum aperture provides an incredibly shallow depth of field, allowing for exquisite subject isolation with creamy, beautiful bokeh (background blur). It also excels in low-light conditions, enabling shooting at lower ISOs or faster shutter speeds than slower lenses.

2. APS-C Optimized (112.5mm Full-Frame Equivalent): Designed for APS-C sensors, its 75mm focal length translates to approximately 112.5mm in full-frame terms. This makes it an ideal choice for:

   • Portraits: The classic portrait focal length range provides a natural perspective and excellent working distance from your subject without distortion.

   • Street Photography: When you want to isolate subjects or create more compressed perspectives.

   • Low-Light Photography: Excellent for events, indoor shots, or night scenes where available light is scarce.

   • Creative Photography: The ultra-wide aperture allows for very artistic and dreamy imagery.

3. Advanced Optical Design:

   • Typically features a complex optical construction with multiple specialized elements, often including ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and HR (High Refractive index) elements. These are crucial for minimizing chromatic aberration (color fringing), improving contrast, and ensuring high sharpness across the frame, even at f/1.2.

   • Viltrox lenses generally feature a multi-layer coating to suppress flare and ghosting, enhancing image clarity and color fidelity, especially in challenging lighting.

4. STM Autofocus Motor: The "STM" denotes a Stepping Motor, which is known for providing:

   • Fast and Accurate Autofocus: Capable of quick and precise focusing, crucial for portraits and moving subjects.

   • Smooth and Quiet Operation: This makes it well-suited for video recording, as focus transitions are less jarring and motor noise is minimized.

   • Compatibility with Eye-AF: Fully supports Sony's advanced Eye-AF and other tracking features for reliable subject detection.

5. Robust Build Quality: Viltrox often utilizes an all-metal construction for their higher-end lenses, including the 75mm f/1.2. This provides a premium feel and enhanced durability.

   • Weather Sealing: Many premium Viltrox lenses feature some degree of dust and splash resistance, offering peace of mind when shooting in less-than-ideal conditions.

   • Integrated Aperture Ring: A popular feature among photographers, providing tactile control over the aperture directly on the lens. It often includes an "A" (Auto) setting for camera-controlled aperture and a click/de-click switch for video use (to avoid audible clicks when changing aperture).

6. De-Clicked Aperture (Often): For videographers, the ability to "de-click" the aperture ring allows for smooth, stepless aperture adjustments during recording, which helps avoid visible jumps in exposure.

7. USB-C Port for Firmware Updates: A convenient feature that allows users to easily update the lens firmware directly from a computer,
