If those are the lenses that are important to you, then go shoot Sony, simple as.
As a single example, I can guarantee you that no one on this message board will make an image with a Viltrox 85/1.4 that is materially better than with the Nikon 85/1.8, though, no matter how hard they argue.
The Viltrox 35/1.2 and 135 are unique cases where you can get near S and Plena quality at a fraction of the price.
Viltrox is a crap shoot. I tried the 35 1.2 and do not believe this lens renders as nice as the Nikon, But mine was an out of box failure with the aperture ring. As to 85 1.8, I have had that lens off and on for a while. There are times when I want a little wider aperture. The 85 1.8S will miss AF sometimes in low light. I do a lot of low light shooting. Even the 50 1.4Z can out resolve the venerable 50 1.8 in very dim light where the AF starts to unwind on a Z7II and even the Zf. The extra 2/3 stop matters. A reason why I added the Sony to the mix.
