Best portrait lens

I love this lens. its a bit heavier but, the quality of photos this produces is fantastic. I almost always shoot this between f 1.2 and 1.6. Primarily use this for portraits and guest photos at events. The bokeh this produces is outstanding. This is my go to lens for event coverage..

My new favorite lens of all time

Was between this and the 50mm 1.2 for mostly cars and pet/people portraits. Very happy I chose the 85mm. The RF 70-200 was previously my favorite lens and I never imagined this would blow it out of the water. Everything looks incredible through this glass. People, cars, animals, you name it. Insanely sharp even wide open at f1.2. Dreamy bokeh, amazing colors, and fantastic clarity. The best lens I have ever owned in 15 years, hands down.

Amazing

This lens makes you a better photographer. That?s all I really need to say. If you?re reading this, you already know that it?s a big, heavy-ish lens. I like the feel of this lens. It looks, feels and performs like the incredibly high quality product you should expect for such a high price. It is expensive, but worth every penny. The subject-isolating, dreamy bokeh is reason enough. If you want the best prime lens for portraiture, product shots, and so many more functions, this is the one.

A superior lens for your RF collection

The RF 85mm lens is the perfect portrait lens. It auto focuses Immediately and has superior sharpness. Its low light f1.2 allows shooting in very low light while maintaining photo quality. These features make it my choice for shooting gigs and other musical events. The 85mm allows me to be far enough away from the subject to not be a distraction. Definitely worth the price to get a Canon superior addition to my RF tool kit.

Worth the investment!

This is the lens I?ve been needing for a while to step up my photos that extra notch! Quick AF, amazing quality and oooh the bokeh, it?s perfect. Coming from the old 85 1.8 ef (used with the adapter) this is a game changer. Worth the investment.

Canon 85mm f1.2 More than portraits

Having done quite a bit of research I bought this lens with preconceived notions.Afte ra month and a thousand photos I am beginning to see what this lens truly is. As advertised it is an awesome portrait lens. The bokeh is fantastic and does separate the subject from the background. Best taking head or head and shoulder shots but great for so much more. At f1.2 it is a single person or with proper positioning a group lens. But, DOF is shallow (how much depends on distance of course). It is also great for photographing single objects. You need to take care at f1.2 to be sure to position the subject item so as not to have a confusing element included in the frame. So at f1.2 single person or single object. But don?t get stuck shooting at f1.2 always. That speed is what makes this sense special but it only gets sharper, if possible, as you shoot at other apertures. I have shot cars. Live music and video. The video at f5.6 hand held at 60 fps and 1/125 shutter. On my R5 in 4k fine, awesome

$$$$$

All I smell when I take this lens out is money. Before and during the purchase all I thought about was the cost. But now that I own it, all I think about is how much money this beauty is bringing in. Before switching to mirrorless I was more partial to the EF 50mm f1.2 and EF 135mm f2. Now I have found my favorite RF lens. Yes, I know the bokeh is beautiful. But that attribute is really second to the beautiful rendering, sharpness and accurate focus on my R5. Some people whine about the slow focusing. But in reality, it is not that slow. Compared to the EF 85mm f1.2L II it is like a hare passing the turtle. Sure it's not the best stop action sports lens but more useful that it's older counterpart. Oh yeah, that older counterpart was also not sharp, had bad CA and corner fall off. My copy has already paid for itself and has put enough in the coffers to purchase the RF 35mm f1.2 when it arrives. A fir the weight. It is offset to my by the light weight of the R5 compared to the 1DX II i parted with when I switched.

A worthy update to the EF 85L

Super sharp at f1.2. Paired with the R and R6, AF is fast. At least when compared to my old EF 85L II on an adapter. Pricey but worth the cost if you know what you wanna do with this lens.

It's Magical ***

For the Zillion dollars it cost, it should be magical. Guess What? IT IS. The focus along with the shallow depth of field makes you a 9th degree photographer. I am blown away. Not to get too dramatic but I think it is the smooth drop off from the target toward the out of focus area. Yea, I know---bokeh, but it's more than that. Big $$$ and Big results!!

Best lens ever

This is the most beautiful lens I have ever owned. Tack sharp, and I can shoot into the sun without getting sun flares. Yes it?s crazy expensive but it?s SO worth it. It?s also pretty heavy but I shoot with a dual harness so it?s not bad at all.

I've purchased a whole lot of gear from Adorama. Probably near ($) worth. I just want to know where 32 reviews for an unreleased lens in pre-order status came from? Some of the reviews are obviously not even about this lens! Shame on you, Adorama.

View full Review

With its fixed 85mm focal length and wide f/1.2 maximum aperture, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens is ideal for photographing portraits, weddings, fashion and more, and great for low-light situations and producing beautiful, soft backgrounds. It gives you fast autofocus speed, and works great with the Eye Detection AF feature found in the EOS R and EOS RP cameras to provide impressive focus on a subject's eye. All this and more, including Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics (BR) to help reduce chromatic aberration and Air Sphere Coating to help minimize flaring and ghosting, combine to give you a lens you'll want among your favorites.

Features

High Image Quality and Bright f/1.2 Aperture L Lens for EOS R System Cameras
An incredibly bright fixed focal length lens, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM distinguishes itself by maintaining incredibly high image quality, edge to edge, even wide open at its f/1.2 maximum aperture. With 13 elements in 9 groups and a 9-blade aperture system, it can deliver sharp and detailed images with gorgeous background blur and remarkable consistency.

Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics (BR) Reduces Chromatic Aberration
Thanks to our BR optics (Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics), the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM helps capture beautiful detailed photos with minimal chromatic aberration, while also providing stunning resolution.

Minimum Focusing Distance of 2.79 ft./0.85m
With a minimum focusing distance of 2.79 ft./0.85m and a maximum magnification of approx. 0.12x, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM is capable of capturing sharp and detailed images from various distances. Whether you're shooting portraits, still life or close ups, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM can easily provide sharp images with minimal distortion.

Control Ring for Direct Setting Changes
The RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens incorporates a control ring on the lens barrel that can directly adjust numerous settings including shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation and more. Located towards the front of the lens and effectively adding a third dial to the EOS R series cameras' main dial and quick control dial, the control ring has a tactile, easily distinguished surface and features a clicking mechanism that provides tangible feedback for confident use while looking through the viewfinder. For photographers and moviemakers who would prefer a silent control ring, the clicking mechanism can be removed by a Canon service provider for a fee.

One Aspherical Element and One UD Lens
Taking advantage of the RF mount, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens offers incredible optical quality and an exceedingly bright f/1.2 maximum aperture. It features a large diameter Aspherical element for high image quality from center to corner and an Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) glass element that helps reduce aberrations for minimized distortion throughout the image plane.


12 pin Communication System

High-speed Communication with the Camera
Designed to quickly process data, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM features the 12 pin communication system inherent in all RF lenses. This accelerates AF, Image Stabilization, the Digital Lens Optimizer and more, helping to simplify complex operations and provide a quick and reliable user experience.

Lens Information Display
As part of the EOS R system, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens works with an EOS R series camera so that its lens information is displayed right in the viewfinder, making it easy to confirm the lens's focal length without looking away from the subject at hand.

In-camera Digital Lens Optimizer
The EOS R system's 12 pin communication system enables the Digital Lens Optimizer, which works in-camera to combat aberrations and image deterioration, especially in the edges of the image frame when shooting at a large aperture. Data from the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens is transferred automatically to the camera body, facilitating near immediate correction for clear, detailed images.


Dust- and Weather-resistant with Fluorine Coating.

Dust- and Weather-resistant
For reliable performance even when weather conditions get difficult, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens features dust- and weather-resistant construction in the lens mount, switch panel and all rings. Sealing is applied to lens joining sections, and switch panels to help prevent water and dust from entering into the lens.

High Reliability and Durability for Professional Use
Like all L series lenses, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens is built to endure the rigors of professional use. Constructed to be rugged, refined and precise, it can be operated intuitively so concentration can remain on the subject at hand.

Vibration Shock Resistance
Engineered to accommodate its optical system, the RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens features L series level vibration shock resistance in the lens barrel, helping to maintain focus and settings even in turbulent situations.

Fluorine Coating
The RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens features fluorine coatings on the front and rearmost surfaces to help prevent dirt and dust from sticking to the lens, making it easy to clean off smudges and fingerprints.


Air Sphere Coating (ASC) Minimizes Lens Flare and Ghosting
The RF 85mm F1.2 L USM lens features our Air Sphere Coating (ASC), which significantly reduces the occurrence of lens flare and ghosting regardless of focal length or the angle of light. This helps provide clean results with minimal distractions and aberrations.
