Seen it happen to my own despite me actively hitting public. They came back.
I’m seeing them all across the forum from all different people.
Also happening when ppl have linked them to me on social media to Flickr

Yeah I see a bunch of squares from y'all too, it's really annoying. I'll put a support ticket with them. Might be because my pics default to private (though linking them never broke before).

I’ve been pretty impressed with what Viltrox has been putting out lately, especially considering the prices. The 135 LAB in particular looks like a really interesting lens. That f/1.8 sharpness is pretty crazy.
I’ve been using the Viltrox 14mm on my Sony and honestly have been really happy with it so far. It’s a fun lens to have for wider shots, especially for landscapes and architecture. I’ll have to dig through some of my shots and post a few here.

I made them public, now about now?
Looks good. The issue has reached the Southern Hemisphere . I don't think it's a public vs private issue either. My own linked pictures were blue squares last night.
[redacted] bokeh torture test wide open. at this point, I don't think we are ever going to see a Viltrox lens that doesn't suffer from overlapping specular highlights (see last detail photo) in midrange bokeh.
I see some green fringing, but more well controlled than the native Z lens in this category. Bokeh shapes are certainly more well controlled than some in the EVO line as well.
One more for now. [redacted] vs its closest rival in the market from a specs perspective. The Viltrox is about half a stop darker at wide open from a T Stop perspective.
Viltrox
Competitor
The Viltrox demonstrates some interesting color ghosting that its competitor controls better. This is the 3rd time in early testing I've seen the Viltrox do this with a vivid color on a high contrast edge. The competitor controls this better, but it manifests more as typical fringe, though blueish.

I actually like the fact it shows some "swirl." I know that's not a traditionally accepted good bokeh trait, but I happen to like it. If it's a 35 or 40 and available for Sony, I'm probably buying one
I had the issue of broken links from pictures posted from Flickr, I Googled it and found a tutorial, changed the setting in my computer, now I can see the posts.

Very nice sharpness of the [redacted] lens.
I don't know if I like the bokeh though...
And for me the comparable native Z version is worse in all belongs.
Yeah I don’t mind a bit of swirl. Of course focusing closer to MFD will enhance it.
