With the Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 Series II Lens for Canon EF, you can elevate your photography to new heights. This updated MF 85mm F1.4 MK2 lens, renowned for its exceptional portraiture capabilities, now comes with enhanced features for an improved user experience. The lens retains its original optical design, celebrated for producing images with vivid colors and smooth out-focus quality. This makes it an ideal choice for capturing high-quality portraits and still images. The lens's expressive image quality is further enhanced by the use of 1 Hybrid Aspherical glass in its construction, which minimizes spherical and distortion aberration for sharp, detailed images.A standout feature of this lens is the new 'De-click function,' designed to facilitate seamless video filming. By switching the silver ring from "Click" to "Free," you can adjust the aperture continuously, maintaining consistent brightness even when changing the aperture. This feature, typically found in cine lenses, allows for smoother transitions and more detail between F stops.The Rokinon 85mm lens also boasts a smooth bokeh effect, thanks to its 9-rounded aperture blades. This feature effectively separates the subject from the background, drawing attention to the subject and creating eye-catching images. When the aperture is stopped-down, these blades also produce clearly defined sunstars.The lens's design has been updated for increased durability and ease of use. It now includes weather sealing at the lens mount area to prevent moisture or rain infiltration, providing an extra layer of protection for outdoor shooting in adverse weather conditions. The focus ring now features a new micro-patterned rubber design for better grip and reduced contamination.In summary, the Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 Series II Lens for Canon EF combines advanced features with a user-friendly design, making it a valuable addition to any photographer's toolkit. Whether you're capturing portraits, filming videos, or shooting still images, this lens delivers exceptional image quality and performance.

I paired this lens with a Nikon D750. I have to say, right out of the gate I am impressed. I've had a couple of days to play with it and I am really starting to get comfortable with it.

I find the aperture ring to be a bit fiddly, it's easy to accidentally bump it and change the setting even though it's set to Click. Maybe that's just me and my fat hands. In any case, I try to be mindful of it and haven't had any real issues.

As a small business owner, I use my cameras for product photography as well as for personal use. This lens is definitely going to get used heavily for product photography. Just fooling around in my home, I have been blown away at how great the images look straight out of the camera.

This is my first Rokinon lens, but I already know it won't be my last.

Blown Away

This is a very nice lens. It is a medium length telephoto lens when paired with an APS-C sensor. It is the equivalent of an 127 mm lens in full frame. The images are sharp and background separation with a narrow depth of field at or near wide open is excellent.  It is heavier than I expected and the mount adapter pushes the lens away from the camera by about an inch. This gives the setup a slightly front heavy feel. The mechanical aspects of the lens, focus ring and aperture ring, are just about perfect.. It is completely manual so experience with tools like focus peaking is important. All in all, I am happy with the lens.
