I’ve been shooting on the Ronin 4D and recently rented the DJI 17–28 DL lens. I honestly loved how simple it was. Just slap it on and go, autofocus worked without any headache.
Now I’m looking at the Viltrox Raze f/1.8 DL lenses, but I can’t find anywhere to rent them. I’ve seen a few YouTube videos but they’re basically just an advertisement. Has anyone bought them and put them to the test?
For context, I’m coming from Canon and used my 50mm f/1.2L with the 4D. I’ve tried calibrating it multiple times and have had some success but focus just never feels reliable.
Basically, I don’t want to use the focus motor. I know this limits me SEVERELY. And I don’t want to need to calibrate the focus because I haven’t found real success using my canon 50mm.
With the limitations I put on myself, am I basically stuck with DJI’s DL lenses for that kind of reliability, or are there other options (like Viltrox or anything else) that actually deliver?
