  • PositiveThe lens delivers very good performance - even considering its price. It provides an affordable entry into upscale portrait photography.
  • NegativeThe sharpness performance in the open aperture range is a little too low, so that a rather soft image impression is created.

The resolution of the Viltrox FE-85 mm f/1.8 Mark II could be a little higher in the lower aperture range, but its other results are very good. The behaviour of the fast autofocus drive and the otherwise very simple operation also make it a value-for-money recommendation.
