Product Highlights

  • High corner-to-corner resolution : This compact, easy-to-handle lens offers fine prime lens performance with high corner-to-corner resolution. A precision optical design includes one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element to effectively minimise chromatic aberration, while spherical aberration is tightly controlled for high overall sharpness with smooth bokeh when required.
  • Beautiful bokeh enhances portraits : Spherical aberration is carefully optimised to achieve the best possible balance between resolution and smooth, natural bokeh that can provide a perfect backdrop for a wide range of subjects, while a 9-blade circular aperture contributes to beautiful bokeh highlights. 85mm is often a photographer’s first choice for people and portraits.
  • Mobile and manageable for active shooting : A compact, lightweight design that is ideally matched to the α7 series offers a great blend of portability and high image quality for portraits, events, and more. Even though the SEL85F18 features and advanced optical design add up to impressive overall performance, its 371-gram (13.1 oz.) weight makes it a great choice for active, on-the-go shooting.
  • Quiet, precise focus drive : A double linear motor actuator system directly drives the lens’s focus mechanism without noisy intervening gears, for precision positioning and quiet operation that are great for movies as well as stills.
  • Quality build, versatile features : A customisable focus hold button can be assigned to other functions such as Eye AF, for example, while a wide, responsive focus ring offers improved manual focus comfort and precision. A dust and moisture resistant design plus other refinements add up to outstanding quality and photographic versatility.

my favorite camera and lens

I was satisfied using lenses/ but unfortunally my all Sony equipment and lens were stolen.

This FE 85mm F1.8 has serial number: S013054149C

To my suprise, unfortunate that unlike other cameras brands, Sony does not support the search function by image and serial number.

What would make it much more difficult to use stolen equipment

Built for portraits!

Amazing bokeh, very fast and accurate (and near silent) autofocus, perfect sharpness wide open (and sharp on corners as well), great rendering of colours and near perfect compression! Handy custom button on the side! Very well-built quality! Highly recommended!

Elegantly efficient

This is my first prime lens for my A7RII and I wish I'd bought it earlier. Have only used zooms on it previously, I really appreciate the small size and simplicity of use. Just point and shoot. The focal length is perfect for portrait and people photography and the results are stunning. Sharp and crisp where it's needed with soft focus background. This will stay on the camera 90% of the time.
