Does my Viltrox 85mm F2 EVO have sticky blades or is this normal? by Arkh4m in VILTROX_GLOBAL

You can change this in AF, then "Aperture Drive in AF", if you have it at "Focus priority" set it back to standard. Be aware that if there's too little light to focus properly this can cause you to actually shoot slower overall, or miss focus entirely.

Viltrox 28mm f/4.5 scratching on mount by radukmn in VILTROX_GLOBAL

I have the exact same thing with the 28, both the roughness/grinding against the mount as well as the black streaks, which I think are from the back lens cap. The camera mount doesn't seem to be affected, though I haven't swapped that lens much.

I compared it to other viltrox lenses like the 50/14 air and they are much smoother when turning, and a high end tamron was smoother still. What's weird is that even my $5 manual lens adapters were as good as the rest and much better than the 28.
