Viltrox AF 56mm F1.7: The Ultimate Portrait Lens for X-Mount Cameras
The Viltrox AF 56mm F1.7 Lens is made for Sony E-mount cameras. It is like the 85mm lens used on full-frame cameras and is great for portraits. Its f/1.7 aperture allows more light for clearer photos in dim settings and creates a blurred background or bokeh, which makes it great for photos and videos that need a film-like feel.
This lens offers sharp, vibrant photos due to its high clarity and color accuracy. It has 10 elements in 8 groups, reducing distortion and color issues. At only 220 grams, it's light and easy to carry, perfect for both serious and casual photography.
It has a smooth manual focus ring and a fast autofocus. This makes it simple to change focus quickly and catch quick moments accurately. The aperture ring adjusts easily, letting photographers control the exposure and depth as they shoot.
The lens fits standard 55mm filters, which can improve photo quality and protect the lens. Its sturdy metal mount makes it durable for regular use.
Overall, the Viltrox AF 56mm F1.7 is affordable, high-performing, and portable. It's great for new and experienced photographers who want quality without spending too much. This lens is excellent for studio portraits or lively street photos, ensuring beautiful results that enhance your photos.

It is so nice to see a small family owned shop instead of these big box stores. I generally felt cared about when getting my blackmagic cinema camera. Love the quality of the images and how easy it is to use.

This small business has the best customer service HANDS DOWN!!
Lucas worked with me diligently to help me find a camera that would fit my needs and that would arrive in time for my trip. I take photos, but wanted a smaller, more compact camera to take with me when traveling. He even reached out to other camera experts to make sure he was giving me the best advice for the equipment that would accommodate my needs!
Lucas was patient with me and was in constant contact with the camera supplier to keep me updated on the status of my order and when the items would be ready for shipment. Once my order arrived to the store, it was in my hands in less than 2 days. I would give 10 stars to this business if I could!!
SHOP SMALL! :)
AMAZING SERVICE!
In short: I was able to receive the black colorway below retail and free next day shipping with the promos that they offered for being a new camera web-shop based from AZ.
Long story: Lucas who is prolly the only rep for the company cuz they're so small is the best dude ever. Since i ordered he responded on emails and updates quicker than some of my friends texting me back about where am at on the list as people just kept cancelling their order. I went from 9th place in line to 4th place in line for the silver. And he hit me up saying that they were still waiting on Fuji to send shipping updates and that no company knows what they get on their weekly fuji shipments other than from a 24 hour window of receiving shipping details.
He then noted that there were two black X100Vs available that were reserved to customers who ordered but have not confirmed. I said if they dont confirm please let me know and ill take that instead of the silver. The next day he hits me saying the customer said to cancel and he sent me an invoice. I ordered accessories for the camera on amazon right after and my package for the camera came before my amazon package. Lucas was super nice and transparent about everything. Dope experience from NUZIRA.
Lucas was so incredibly helpful!!! I’ve genuinely never had better customer service. They offered to stay late so I could get my order and were so patient with all my questions. I would give them 10 stars if I could.

NUZIRA MADE MY MONTH!
I was a little concerned when I first came across this small business but I am so so thankful I di! They have the NICESt staff and customer service. I have been on the waitlist for this camera for a few months now so when Lucas called saying they had it back in stock I was so freaking excited! Made my whole month. This camera absolutely lives up to the hype. I love how lightweight it is. I can pop it into any bag and head out the door. the images are crisp, high quality, and stunning. I use film sim and not film sim. The film simulations are nearly identical to real film. I have another fuji camera that does film sim but it can't even be compared to this one. I love my Fujifilm X100v so much! Amazing camera! Thanks you Nuzira!
