One of the best primes

Very light weight but still one of the best performing prime lenses from Sony. This lens is Japan made.

A fantastic lens - worth the wait!

Like many others I have been waiting years for the mark 2 version of this lens. I am very impressed with it for portriats, action and landscapes.

Amazing lens

I bought this lens having loved a 90mm Lieca lens when shooting film and have no regrets. It is amazingly sharp, great for landscapes and portraits, handles difficult lighting extremely well and very light weight.

Best 85mm!

I have to say that this is the best 85mm that Sony released. The focus is on point. I honestly cannot find something to dislike about this lens.

In love!!

Oh my gosh. I cannot say enough great things about this lens! Sony has minimized the focus breathing and slow AF for this lens rendition and I am in love. I had their previous version and although it was one of the sharpest lenses I have, I was hesitant to use it because it was heavier than my other lenses. I also found myself missing shots because it was slower to focus. It's fast, super sharp and super light! And Adorama shipped SO quickly! ??

Finally!

This is the lens I have been waiting years for. The first gen was too slow and antiquated for what I needed. The Sigma 85mm f1.4 DG DN is a fine lens, but has a much yellower color rendering than the G Master lineup. This made color matching with the 35mm GM in outdoor shoots very difficult at times. This new 85mm color matches perfectly, is reasonably sized, quick, and great optically. The only downside I can see so far is the cost.

Ultra sharp with excellent bokeh

I just received this and tested it on my a7iii immediately. It's even better than I would've imagined!

This handy feature locks your aperture settings in place, preventing any accidental adjustments while you’re recording.

Innovative optics for precision

This new Sony lens is built with 14 individual lens elements arranged in 11 groups, a sophisticated setup that ensures every shot is as sharp and clean as possible.

Innovative optics for precision

ED glass elements minimize chromatic aberration for precisely rendered edge detail

Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements significantly reduce flare and ghosting by taking axial chromatic aberration and chromatic aberration (due to differences in magnification) out of the picture. Resolution and bokeh is maximized while leaving precisely rendered edges without fringing or unnatural coloration right out to the image edges.

ED glass elements

Silent autofocus

Noise can be a major distraction when shooting in quiet environments or recording video. That’s not a problem with this lens!

Silent autofocus

Rugged reliability

A dust and moisture resistant design ensure reliability in challenging outdoor conditions. The front lens element features a fluorine coating that repels fingerprints, dust, water, oil, and other contaminants.

Rugged reliability

Round-shaped, bayonet mount lens hood

A round-shaped, bayonet mount lens hood ALC-SH180 provides a rubber outer ring, and a button press lock/unlock is supplied, and available separately as an optional accessory.
