Slimmed, trimmed, and newly outfitted, Sony has upgraded its most popular portrait prime with the FE 85mm f/1.4 GM II Lens, featuring faster autofocus, smoother bokeh, and video-friendly functionality. Delivering top-of-the-line G Master sharpness and bokeh quality, the lens' pleasing image quality is well-suited for stills and videos in portrait, event, and other shallow depth of field applications.
Smoother Bokeh
Sony continues to push the boundaries of G Master excellence with the 85mm f/1.4 GM II, improving its edge-to-edge sharpness and contrast 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 offers a wealth of control over focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.
Improved Autofocus
The autofocus is controlled by an XD (extreme dynamic) linear motor that contributes to greatly improved focusing performance, compared to the DDSSM system of the predecessor, including faster, quieter, and more precise AF that's ideal for both video and stills.
Smaller and Lighter
The Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM II Lens is approximately 20% lighter and 13% smaller than its predecessor, the 85mm f/1.4 GM II remains a durable, portable, and versatile option with a wide variety of applications.
