anyone using the viltrox 27 1.2 pro on an x-t5? want something faster than my 23 f2 for night street but tbh 560g sounds like a brick on a camera i bought partly because it was small. is it actually that bad in the hand

If you bought the X-T5 to be small, you already know the answer.
Not that one, but I tried the Viltrox 75 1.2 for a bit and yes, it makes the whole camera front-heavy! Lovely wide open though. For night street I'd honestly just push the ISO on the 23 f2 and shoot Acros, grain is half the fun at night.
lol fair. ok ill stick with the 23 and stop scrolling lens listings at 1am
