Sony E 85mm f/1.4 G GM

Sony

The Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM is a flagship short-telephoto prime lens in Sony's G Master series, renowned for its breathtaking resolution and exquisitely smooth bokeh. This lens is the quintessential choice for professional portrait, wedding, and fashion photographers using Sony's full-frame E-mount system. The 85mm focal length provides a flattering perspective for subjects, while the ultra-bright f/1.4 maximum aperture offers incredible low-light gathering capabilities and precise control over depth of field, allowing for stunning subject isolation against a beautifully blurred background. The optical design is a masterpiece, featuring a newly developed XA (extreme aspherical) element and three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements that work in concert to achieve outstanding sharpness and clarity while effectively eliminating chromatic aberrations. The 11-blade circular aperture contributes to the creamy, natural-looking bokeh that is a signature of the G Master line. Sony's Nano AR Coating is applied to reduce flare and ghosting, ensuring high-contrast images even in backlit situations. The lens incorporates a ring drive SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) system for fast, quiet, and precise autofocus. It also features a physical aperture ring with a de-click switch for smooth, silent aperture changes during video recording, as well as a customizable focus hold button. Built to the highest standards, the Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM is a lens that will inspire creativity and deliver uncompromising image quality.
