Karl, if you happen by, you might agree to changing the thread title to: 'Viltrox Image Thread'. Users will find it more easily, and search engines will not get confused by the '135mm' words and other superfluous words. We don't to lose focus by spreading the content over multiple threads, which helps no one. We don't want to make the hyper-realistic images taken with these remarkable lenses hard to find.
I agree with changing the name of the thread. It would clarify that it is for all Viltrox lenses, and I like that it crosses over to both Sony and Nikon forums.

I haven’t noticed that on mine, but haven’t paid that much attention and it’s been awhile since I used it.
Just got the Viltrox 85mm f/2 EVO. Perfect match for my Nikon Zf. Love the size, build quality, image output and the fact that it has a nice aperture ring. Also love that the 85/2 has the same 58mm filter thread size as my 40mm f/1.2 Nokton. The lens feels very similar to Sigma 15mm f/1.4 that I now have for my Fuji X-T30II in feel (which is really good). If the upcoming 35/1.8 EVO is anywhere the same quality and renders nice, it's a must have for me.
Nice! Is this single shot, stacked or using a star tracker? This is exactly the use case why I'm thinking of getting the 16mm Viltrox myself.

Finally had some time to take a walk with my Zf & Viltrox 85mm f/2 EVO and my daughter. I'm really loving this lens, as it fits the way how I love to shoot. I really don't miss any f/1.4 monsters (loved the Sigma Art on Sony though), as this is fun to use and easy to carry. Matches the Nikon Zf perfectly. I don't mind that the bokeh ain't smoothest possible in all situations. For me it only adds to it's charm. And it's pretty amazing how this lens doesn't seem to have ANY aberrations of any kind. Will be interesting to see how the 35/55 EVO's will render. On Sony I loved the Zeiss 55/1.8 and only wished it had an aperture ring.
