Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 lens

Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 - a more affordable alternative to the G master

The Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 is a slim and lightweight proprietary alternative to Sony's E-bayonet. If you don't need an image stabilizer in the lens, you can get this for half the price Batis 85:its performance. The new FE 85 also has an excellent out-of-focus area, with a nice nostalgia for the film era, as it hasn't tried to be over-corrected. Nine elements in eight groups, an extra low dispersion element and other optical wonders keep aberrations and other distortions at bay. Plus, the lens is dust and moisture protected. For portrait photography, nothing compares to the sharpness and smooth bokeh blur of a well-designed medium-length fixed focal length telephoto lens. Thanks to its lightweight design, the SEL85F18 is easy to carry around, while the high-quality optics and large F1.8 maximum aperture ensure top image quality. An excellent second lens for full-frame and APS-C camera users. Colour aberration compensating ED glass, a 9-blade circular aperture and carefully controlled spherical aberrations ensure excellent sharpness and smooth bokeh blur. Compact and lightweight (371g), ideally suited to the α7 series, it offers both portability and high image quality for portraits, events, etc. A linear dual motor system controls the lens' focusing mechanism without distracting gears, making the lens accurate, quiet and ideal for both video and still photography. An adjustable focus hold button, a wide and responsive focus ring, dust and moisture repellent construction and other fine adjustments create a high quality and versatile package.
