Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM Lens
The Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM Lens represents another step forward in photographic technology. This G Master 35mm full-frame, telephoto prime lens is a great choice for professional portrait photographers who require the best optical performance possible. The most advanced technology available has been applied in the G Master series, further enhancing acclaimed Sony G Lens performance. This model combines refined G Lens bokeh with new levels of resolution in a truly outstanding portrait lens that can fully utilize the performance potential of current and future high-resolution camera bodies.
Constant f/1.4 Aperture
Outstanding resolution even at the maximum F1.4 aperture renders the subject with impressive dimensionality. Then gradual, gorgeous bokeh dissolves the background into an artistic backdrop with natural coloration and highlights. This rare combination, due in part to new XA element technology, opens up new vistas of visual expression.
Advanced Nano Anti-Reflective Coating
The SEL85F14GM features Sony’s Nano Anti-Reflective coating that reduces the amount of light that’s reflected by the lens and helps reduce lens flare and image ghosting. By reducing the amount of reflected light, this coating improves clarity, contrast, and overall image quality as well.
Extraordinary Resolution and Bokeh
Outstanding resolution even at the maximum F1.4 aperture renders the subject with impressive dimensionality. Then gradual, gorgeous bokeh dissolves the background into an artistic backdrop with natural coloration and highlights. This rare combination, due in part to new XA element technology, opens up new vistas of visual expression.
Natural Images with no Spurious Color
Chromatic aberration can degrade resolution as well as bokeh quality. Three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements make a significant contribution to this lens’s outstanding optical performance, keeping axial chromatic aberration in check while maximizing both clarity and the natural look and color of its breathtaking bokeh.
Sublime 2-Sensor Autofocus Accuracy
In addition to the usual rotation sensor, a second sensor detects focus lens group position. This dual sensor system achieves the extremely high level of focus precision that is necessary to make the most of the high-resolution potential of advanced camera bodies. RDSSM (Ring Drive Super Sonic wave Motor) drive provides the required power and speed.
Outstanding Clarity and Contrast
Advanced Nano Coating technology produces a lens coating with a precisely defined regular nano-structure that effectively suppresses reflections that can cause flare and ghosting, for notable improvements in clarity, contrast, and overall image quality.
11 Blades for Luscious Bokeh
Sony’s circular aperture design usually employs up to 9 blades. This is the first α lens to incorporate 11 blades in a circular aperture design, taking bokeh quality to new levels of smooth beauty with natural looking highlights.
Versatile Fingertip Focus Control
The ability to respond quickly to rapidly changing shooting situations can mean the difference between getting the shot or not. A manual/autofocus mode switch and focus hold button are positioned for easy access, providing versatile, professional control for a wide range of subjects and environments.
