Sony 85mm F1.4 Portrait Lens
SonySONY 85MM F1.4 Portrait Lens
The G Master series of lenses from Sony is their most advanced lens range to date. Sony 85mm f/1.4 portrait lens gives superb clarity and control over depth of field. Its 11-blade circular aperture which gives excellent bokeh, or defocus smoothness, so crucial for flattering portraits.
Optically the lens has an XA (Extreme Asperical) Element for pin-sharp detail, three ED elements to minimise axial chromatic aberration and Nano AR Coatings to reduce ghosting and flare to a tiny level.
As an upgrade from most other AF lenses, this model has two autofocus Sensors - the usual rotation sensor with an additional focus lens group position sensor for amazing accuracy so needed with a lens of such high performance. Achieve focusing quickly and quietly using the SSM motor.
Additional features include a Hood Lock to prevent accidental loss, an AF-MF switch with easy access and focus hold button. Also includes a de-click switch for silent aperture adjustment. Ideal for when recording movies
The 85mm GM lens is dust and moisture sealed with an additional lens-body interface seal to give added weather resistance.
