Viltrox 33mm Fuji lens review for Fujifilm XT4, XT3, XT2 camera. Also, the Viltrox 33mm vs. Fuji 35mm lens on shooting scenarios and a tutorial/discussion about exposure and aperture issues hopefully addressed by firmware updates.

** IMPORTANT NOTES ON THIS VIDEO **

1. Minimum focus distance info published by Viltrox is 40cm. My tests in the real world showed 38cm. (less is better of course)

2. Lens is $279 not $270 as mentioned in video. My mistake on that one. Guilty as charged.

3. Some tests/scenes in the video were left on the cutting room floor for time purposes. One in particular showed a test against lens flaring. This lens does have some lens flaring that’s noticeable and you can see a brief shot of this very early on in the video when I pan down from the trees.

4. Of the three aperture issues I mentioned, I believe that 2 of out of 3 of them are more annoyances to myself personally than anything else. Other users of this lens may not experience these issues. The first one I mentioned, the aperture jump issue, is the most significant since I had to keep setting it to the correct one after playback — and hopefully will be fixed in the next firmware update. I will retest and publish a follow-up video if this is the case.
