Overview

The Viltrox AF 33mm F1.4 offers excellent value at ~$279, with solid metal build and smooth manual focus. Optically, it delivers good sharpness and smooth bokeh from its 9-blade diaphragm, but shows noticeable pincushion distortion and lacks in-camera correction. Autofocus is fast and quiet, though occasionally hunts wide open. A key caveat: incompatibility with X-Pro3 due to potential scratching. It suits budget-conscious Fuji shooters seeking a fast normal prime.
