AF 15mm F1.7 Air: Compact Wide-angle Lens With Cinematic Flair
First
wide-angle lens in Air series, E/Z/XF mounts available
Shenzhen, China, July 30th,
2025 -
Viltrox is pleased to announce the AF 15mm F1.7 Air, a compact
wide-angle lens that offers creative freedom in an ultra-portable
format. This pocket-sized, lightweight lens (180g to 195g), designed
for APS-C format cameras, offers a wide 84.9° field of view (equivalent
to 22.5mm in full-frame terms) along with reliable, silent autofocus
performance. The Viltrox AF 15mm F1.7 Air is ideal for capturing
expansive street scenes, sweeping landscapes, dramatic architecture,
lively vlogging, and atmospheric interior spaces.
The wide F1.7 aperture (adjustable down to F16) can deliver clean,
bright images in low-light scenes such as dim cafés, nighttime street
action, and indoor gatherings. It also creates smooth, natural
background blur, making it ideal for portraits and close-ups with
subject separation from the background, sharp, vibrant results, and a
cinematic feel.
Viltrox
Air Series: A complete photographic toolbox
The new AF 15mm F1.7 lens has the same compact format as other Viltrox
Air series lenses. The Air series now offers a complete lightweight
lens toolkit – from wide perspectives to mid-telephoto detailed shots,
making a bag of these lenses perfect for creators who need efficiency,
portability, and consistent results.
Advanced
optics for high-quality images
The AF 15mm F1.7 Air comprises 12 elements in 10 groups. The lens’s
three extra-low dispersion (ED) elements control chromatic aberration,
to ensure clean, high-contrast images. Three high-refractive index (HR)
elements enhance edge-to-edge sharpness, while two aspherical elements
suppress distortion. Together, these optics provide accurate rendering
across the frame. Viltrox’s advanced lens coatings reduce flare and
ghosting, and capture clarity and contrast – even in challenging
lighting.
Easy
to use: Great performance out of the box
Affordable and stylish, the Viltrox AF 15mm F1.7 makes wide-angle
photography accessible and enjoyable for all: from beginners to
experienced creators. It is perfectly suited for everyday shooting and
for creative exploration.
