This high-quality, ultra-wide angle prime lens offers a large aperture of f/1.4, making it a reliable choice for low-light photography and creating a beautiful shallow depth of field.

The large-diameter glass aspherical lens in the front group ensures minimal distortion, freeing you from post-processing corrections and allowing you to create more freely. The Viltrox AF 13mm f/1.4 XF Lens also effectively compensates for focus breathing, ensuring smoother video shooting and a natural perspective change during focusing.

Unreal.

I'm leaving similar reviews on the Viltrox 23mm and 33mm 1.4 XF primes - part of the same family. Those lenses are both wonderful, high quality replacements for Fuji primes at a fraction of the cost - but the 13mm 1.4 is the standout of the family. 

There's not much not to love here. Close focus, tack sharp wide open, low distortion, fast AF, metal construction, and all around superb build quality. To be honest, I would have given this lens 5 stars for just hitting the optical benchmarks at this price - but to come in with the extras like all metal construction and close focus while being priced this competitively makes it almost too good to be true. I have shot Zeiss primes on Sony and Canon L series primes on Canon before switching to a Fuji kit and taking a gamble on this family of glass - and I couldn't be happier.

Fuji may well have a hard time selling their native primes moving forward given how good these lenses are. Save your money on the native lenses, buy the Viltrox family instead, and spend the extra cash on a nice monitor that lets you appreciate how good this glass really is.
