Viltrox AF 85mm F2.0 EVO Z (Nikon Z)

The Viltrox AF 85mm F2.0 EVO is a full-frame 85mm prime for Nikon Z bodies, and it sits at number six in this guide at £265.00 — well under the £569 each that the two Viltrox 85mm f/1.4 Pro lenses in the same list sell for. It is also the tidiest of the Viltrox entries on the point this guide keeps running into: the aperture is filed as '2 f' and '16 f', not as a number of millimetres, so at least here the ratio has not been turned into a length. The specification lists 9 diaphragm blades, and unlike the f/1.4 Pro sheets, no bullet in the copy quotes a second, different figure.

What the listing does get wrong is the mount label. The title, the 'Compatible Mountings' field, the 'Lens Mount' field and the manufacturer part number (WY-85mm F2.0 Z) all say Nikon Z, but the model name is written 'AF 85 mm F2.0 EVO FE' — FE being the Sony E-mount tag. Nothing else on the page explains the FE, so a buyer reading the model name alone would think this was a Sony lens. It is filed as 'Lens Type: Standard', not Macro, which keeps it clear of the mislabelling the Nikon 85mm f/1.8G carries in this guide. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing and its customer reviews; we have not tested the lens ourselves.
