Overview
The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.7 E Lens (Sony E, White) is a compact normal-length prime lens designed for Sony E-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. Offering a 52.5mm full-frame equivalent focal length, it delivers a natural perspective well suited to everyday photography, portraits, street scenes, travel, landscapes, architecture, and lifestyle content. Its bright f/1.7 maximum aperture provides excellent low-light performance while enabling attractive background separation and shallow depth of field effects.
Built with an advanced optical design featuring extra-low dispersion, high-refractive, and aspherical elements, the lens helps minimize chromatic aberrations, distortion, flare, and ghosting for improved image quality. A quiet STM autofocus motor delivers smooth and accurate focusing for both stills and video, while support for Eye AF and face detection enhances subject tracking on compatible Sony cameras. Electronic communication enables Exif data transmission and aperture control directly through the camera body for a seamless shooting experience.
