For Sony users with an interest in portraiture, this new FE 85mm f1.8 F lens is a must-have. Depth of field control and low light performance are strong advantages of this prime lens thanks to the fast f1.8 maximum aperture, while the double linear AF motor ensures fast autofocus, suitable for moving subjects and video. Compatible with both full-frame and APS-C format Sony E-Mount cameras, this exceptional lens offers an equivalent focal length of 127.5mm on the smaller format, so make the most of this extra reach!
A prime, portrait lens for the E-Mount
The ever-growing Sony E-Mount lens lineup has a new entry in the form of this portrait friendly FE 85mm f1.8 F. Designed for use on the premium full-frame range the lens can also be used on the popular APS-C models, where a more magnified view is experienced. Great for experimenting freely with differing depths of fields and for shooting in dark scenarios, this lens features a bright f1.8 maximum aperture. The out of focus areas that are so easy to create are fine in appearance, owing to a rounded 9-blade aperture diaphragm.
The Sony compact system camera range is remarkably versatile with many photographers from all walks of life and from varying interests being invested in the system and this short-telephoto prime lens is just as flexible. A double linear AF motor provides Autofocus that is smooth, quiet and importantly very fast, suiting users interested in photographing still life objects, fast moving subjects, and users who are using the full-featured video modes of their E-Mount camera.
