History

  • 2009 – brand launch[1][2]
  • 2018 – first manual focus lens
  • 2019 – first autofocus lens
  • 2022 – start of current series lineup
  • 2025 – joined L-Mount Alliance[3][4]

In mid-2022, Viltrox representative reported that company has been told by Canon to stop selling all RF mount products.[5] At that point only one such lens (85mm f/1.8 for full frame) was produced by Viltrox.

In January 2026, several websites reported Nikon filing a patent infringement lawsuit against Viltrox in China.[6] Lawsuit wasn't acknowledged by either side, and new lenses for Nikon Z-mount have since been released by Viltrox and other third-party manufacturers. In July 2026, Nikon has reportedly lost that lawsuit.[7]

Products

Viltrox makes wide range of photographic equipment, including photo and cinema lenses, lens adapters, teleconverters, flash units, video lights and external camera monitors.

Photographic lenses

Modern lineup consists of following series of lenses for mirrorless cameras:

  • Lab – flagship lenses with largest apertures and premium features
  • Pro – high-end lenses with large apertures and VCM autofocus motors
  • Evo – mid-range lenses with smaller apertures
  • Air – compact lightweight lenses with minimal controls
  • Chip – pancake-style lens without manual controls
  • DF and C – initial series of Viltrox autofocus lenses (for full frame and crop sensors respectively)

For higher-end lenses Viltrox uses glass supplied by Hoya.[1]

Autofocus prime lenses

For full frame cameras

These lenses create full frame-covering image circle, but some of them also exist in versions for Fujifilm X-mount, which is only used in cameras with APS-C sensors.
