Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 Lens
The Sony FE 85 mm f/1.8 (SEL85F18) is a compact, lightweight, and high-performance short-telephoto prime lens designed for Sony E-mount full-frame cameras. Combining excellent optical quality with a fast f/1.8 aperture, the lens is ideal for portraits, events, and low-light photography. It integrates one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element to minimize chromatic aberration and ensure sharp image rendition across the frame. A 9-blade circular diaphragm helps deliver smooth bokeh, while the double linear motor system gives fast, precise, and quiet autofocus — well suited for both stills and video. The build includes a customisable focus-hold button, an AF/MF switch, a responsive wide focus ring, and a dust- & moisture-resistant design for reliable performance.
