Description
The Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM lens is a fast, short-telephoto prime lens that is distinguished by its flattering field of view, advanced optics, and ability to isolate subjects with shallow depth of field. The lens is also designed to achieve notably high resolution and sharpness through the correction of a wide variety of spherical and chromatic aberrations. The fast f/1.4 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers a wealth of control over focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques. The lens features a Nano AR Coating to reduce surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for increased contrast and color rendering in strong lighting conditions. The rounded 11-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques. One XA element is incorporated into the optical design, which features superior surface precision for effective control over astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other spherical aberrations. Three extra-low dispersion elements are featured in the lens design and help to reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity and color neutrality. The lens is also dust- and moisture-sealed for improved resistance to environmental conditions.
