Viltrox has a new patent for a tilt-shift lens – here are the details:
What is significant about this lens, based on the drawings, is that when using the lens on a tripod using the “built-in” tripod mount, it is the camera that “shifts,” rather than the lens. This is a huge plus for panoramic photography because it eliminates problems of parallax caused when what shifts is the lens.
Here are the rest of the expected/rumored Viltrox lenses:
Viltrox is expected to release three new AF lenses for Nikon Z-mount:
Viltrox will release the first two L-mount lenses in 2026:
Viltrox will also be releasing new teleconverters (see patent).
A new Viltrox AF 9mm f/2.8 Air lens for Fuji XF mount is also expected.
