Shenzhen, China - Jun 16th, 2026 - Viltrox today announced its new AF 28mm F4.5 Chip L, a full-frame autofocus pancake lens for L-Mount cameras. The lens combines an ultra-slim profile, exceptional lightness, and excellent portability that's ideal for everyday shooting, travel, and street photography.
With the launch of the AF 28mm F4.5 Chip L, Viltrox further expands its L-Mount lineup. In addition to support for in-camera correction functions, the lens is optimized to work seamlessly with modern L-Mount camera systems, delivering a compact and effortless shooting experience for everyday photography.
Weighing just ~60g and measuring just 13.2mm thin, this ultra-compact autofocus lens is comparable in size to a simple lens cap or camera body cap, transforming a professional mirrorless camera into a pocket-friendly companion. When paired with cameras such as the Panasonic Lumix S9 and Lumix S5II, the AF 28mm F4.5 Chip L creates a remarkably compact full-frame setup, allowing photographers to stay highly mobile with minimal bulk.
An Ultra-Lightweight Pancake Lens for Everyday Creativity
The Viltrox AF 28mm F4.5 Chip L features a fixed F4.5 aperture and a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) autofocus system that delivers fast and quiet autofocus performance. Its versatile 28mm focal length and minimum focusing distance of just 0.32m make it well suited to a wide range of everyday shooting scenarios, providing a natural balance between environmental context and subject emphasis.
To maximize convenience, the lens incorporates a signature slide-lever lens cover design. This built-in mechanism allows users to open and close the integrated lens cover without the need for a separate lens cap, further streamlining the transition from carrying to capturing.
The lens also features a distinctive polygonal aperture plate design that produces recognizable starburst effects around point light sources in backlit and night scenes, adding a unique visual signature to select images.
