[T]his lens just handles really, really well. We got a nice, long enough focus throw with just a tiny amount of focus breathing.

I absolutely like this lens and I think it's going to get a lot of use here for interviews.
[T]here's just this subtle filmic vintage flare to this lens, which is kind of unique, especially if we look at that mustache distortion. It renders a bit more organic and that's why I think it's a great lens for things like portraits and videographers.
Now, first of all, this whole lens is kind of a big quirk, but a pretty well-functioning quirk, and that's one of the reasons why I think a Lot of you guys should actually consider picking one of these up.
[I]f you're looking for kind of a 35mm equivalent for APS-C, this here is kind of a force to be reckoned with. It's sharp, the autofocus feels reliable and smooth for both stills and video.
Now personally, I think this lens has a lot of good things going for it, and dare I say it's a better option for a lot of videographers shooting on APS-C this mirrorless, and I've owned it for about 2 years.
It kind of feels like Viltrox has caught up with the big boys, even with these more affordable Air series lenses that seems to be over-delivering in almost every category.
So yeah, 40mm, it's actually a pretty interesting and fun focal length to shoot with. So if you're looking for a new, fun, and inexpensive walking around lens, I could highly recommend you to check this out.
