The previously reported Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.2 LAB full-frame lens without a TFT/LCD screen was officially announced in China today (check the official website for pre-orders). Here are the details – the specs appear to be identical to the version with a TFT/LCD screen:

  • Available for Sony E and Nikon Z-mount
  • Focal length: 35mm (full-frame coverage; ~52.5mm equivalent on APS-C).
  • Aperture: F1.2 – F16 with an 11-blade circular diaphragm for smooth bokeh.
  • Optical construction: 15 elements in 10 groups (5 ED ultra-low dispersion + 3 HR high-refractive index + 2 large aspherical elements) for sharp results, reduced aberrations, and high contrast.
  • Minimum focus distance: 0.34 m (13.4 in) with 0.17x maximum magnification.
  • Filter size: 77 mm.
  • Dimensions & weight: ≈89.2 mm diameter × 121.8–123.5 mm length (slightly longer on Z-mount); ≈920 g (Sony) / ≈970 g (Nikon) — hefty but typical for an f/1.2 prime.
  • Powered by Viltrox’s Hyper VCM (Voice Coil Motor) system (multiple motors in some descriptions) for fast, quiet, and precise AF with minimal breathing. Supports advanced tracking and video use.
  • All-metal construction with weather sealing (dust/moisture resistant) and multi-layer nano coatings to suppress flare/ghosting.
  • De-clickable aperture ring (with click/de-click switch for photo/video).
  • Two customizable Fn buttons, AF/MF switch.
  • Internal focusing with dual floating elements for better close-up performance.
  • Includes lens hood.
