In this review, I explore how the Viltrox 25mm f/1.7 AIR XF nails the brief as a travel-friendly prime: featherlight, sharp where it counts, and full of character despite its modest build. I recount real-world use in Europe, test its autofocus, image quality, and trade-offs, and conclude that for its price and portability, it punches well above its weight.

The Viltrox 27mm f/1.2 PRO (XF) is a standout portrait lens for Fujifilm shooters. In this hands-on review, I share real client work results, autofocus performance, and bokeh tests; plus why it’s a perfect budget-friendly alternative to Fuji’s pricier primes.
