Excellent Image

Outstanding centre resolution, the 4 HR (High Refractive) and 1 ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) glass elements of this new AF 85mm F1.4 FE II provide a stunning contrast and resolution, and its centre resolution is superior to other comparable expensive telephoto lenses. Samyang's advanced coating technology not only maintains excellent image sharpness even in poor lighting conditions but also the AF 85mm F1.4 FE II provides a clearer image with an improved Colour Contribution Index (CCI).

Fast, Precise & Quiet

Faster, Precise, Quiet autofocus performance Samyang’s Linear Stepping Motor (STM) provides the high-thrust efficiency needed for fast, precise, quiet AF and tracking, thus maximising the advantages of Sony E Mount cameras. Compared to the previous AF 85mm F1.4 FE, this new AF 85mm F1.4 FE II is optimised for not only photo shooting, but also video shooting by minimising vibration and noise. Tracking the subject accurately and quickly, the AF also operates quietly and smoothly when shooting video. Samyang's Linear STM satisfies both photographers and videographers with quieter and more accurate control of the focusing lens groups.

Beautiful Bokeh

Delivers extremely clean and beautiful bokeh, the AF 85mm F1.4 FE II is the only FE mount lens that does not feature even a single aspherical glass. If an aspherical glass is used to improve its optical performance, there should be onion rings in the bokeh, which is a negative factor in the bokeh evaluation. Since the AF 85mm F1.4 FE II does not feature any aspherical glass in its elements, it has clear and beautiful bokeh! Enhanced operability and reliability important features of the AF 85mm F1.4 FE II include Customisable 1) Focus hold button & 2) Custom switch.

Control & Reliability

1. Focus Hold Button Pressing this button on the lens will keep the lens locked to that focusing distance. You can assign functions such as Eye AF in settings on the camera body. 2. Custom Switch There is a custom switch, which can be set to allow adjustment of the aperture 2 / 4 silently, by rotating the focus ring. Using the optional Lens Station, you can set up the mode to suit your own preference*. Short Minimum Focal Distance 0.85m (2.79ft) The minimum focal distance is just 85cm (2.79ft), making the lens perfect for all portraits from close up headshots to full body images while isolating the subject from background with the wide F1.4 aperture.

Modern Design & Weather-Sealing

The AF 85mm F1.4 FE II has been developed and enhanced, taking into consideration not only the design but also the user's shooting environment. It features a rubberised micro-patterned focus ring, stylish silver ring, hidden red ring, and matte finish which feels great to operate and the weather-sealing (in 7 areas) protects the lens from light rain, snow and dust.
