Viltrox currently has no plans to make the 135mm f/1.8 LAB lens for Nikon Z-mount



A reader contacted Viltrox to find out when the new 135mm f/1.8 LAB lens would be available for Nikon Z mount. The response was that Viltrox currently does not have plans for a 135mm f/1.8 LAB lens for the Nikon Z-mount:



I find this strange becuase initially, the lens was rumored to be released for Sony E-mount first and later for Nikon Z-mount:

The Viltrox AF 135mm f/1.8 LAB FE lens for Sony E-mount is now available for pre-order

Viltrox will announce 4 new lenses for Nikon Z-mount this year (2024)
