Is the viltrox af 35mm f 1 8 evo good for street photography?

Yes, I think it's a good street lens. A 35mm f/1.8 is a classic street focal length on full frame, wide enough to take in the scene around your subject and fast enough for dim streets. It's autofocus, but it has no stabilisation, so keep your shutter speed up. Street photography rewards small and quiet gear, so pair it with a compact body. On a full-frame Sony, the a7C is a sensible match. On APS-C, the lens frames like about 52mm, which is more of a short telephoto for street, so I'd use it with a small body like the Sony a6100 or the Nikon Z30 and stand a little further back. The sensor guide explains why a smaller setup is often the better choice for walking around.
