p.3 #1 · Viltrox 26mm f2.8 EVO for Z and E - first look
Mine just arrived and took a few quick grabs with it at various apertures just to confirm all works before heading out with it in a bit. Initial impressions are all good, focuses reasonably close, is sharp even wide open, great color and contrast and of course love its size, especially on my Sony A7Cii. As noted, AF is perhaps a tad slower than normal, but for me it's more than fast enough and a tradeoff I'm happy with to gain the compact size.
This image is nothing special, just shows a closer focus subject wide open. I'm about 14 inches from that rabbit and he's about 6 inches tall. The pic of the lens on the cam is just a cell phone grab for size perspective. Both are sized to 2048 px inside the frames, so best to view at that instead of this forums browser auto fit size.
PS LOVE the magnetic lens cap. I hope this becomes a thing

It’s going to look great on my A7c2 as well. I think at this point the only thing I will miss about my GR(s) is the pocketability.

I'd love to give this little lens a shot but I already own a VERY good copy of the small Sigma 24/3.5i which has superb rendering. I'm not sure I'd use this lens any differently than the Sigma.
