Nikon agreed to acquire Viltrox on March 31, 2026, resolving a lawsuit stemming from Viltrox's alleged failure to pay licensing fees for manufacturing lenses compatible with the Nikon Z camera system. Earlier, on March 30, Viltrox's 35mm F/1.2 LAB Z lens was available for $799.20, a decrease from its standard $999, during the Amazon Big Spring Sale. This followed a March 29 offer for the 85mm F/1.4 Pro FE lens at $478, a 20% reduction from its $598 price, also part of the Amazon event. On March 27, the 16mm f/1.8 Z ultra-wide prime lens also saw a price reduction. Previously, Viltrox expanded its prime lens portfolio for Sony users throughout 2025, introducing new Air, Pro, and LAB series lenses for both APS-C and full-frame Sony cameras, which were also included in the Amazon Spring deals with a 20% discount.
