Samyang AF 85mm f/1.8 P Sony FE

Samyang AF 85mm f/1.8 P for Sony FE

The Samyang AF 85mm f/1.8 P is a compact, fast telephoto prime built for beautifully rendered portraits and sharp detail work. Designed for Sony E-mount full-frame cameras, it combines the classic 85mm perspective with a bright f/1.8 aperture, helping you separate your subject from the background and create smooth, pleasing bokeh.

At just 272 grams, this lens is easy to carry without sacrificing image quality. Its optical construction uses 9 elements in 8 groups, including 1 HR and 3 ED elements, to deliver strong clarity, refined contrast, and natural-looking transitions. It is well suited for expressive portraiture, lifestyle photography, and everyday shooting where subject isolation matters.

Built with a durable, weather-resistant body rated IP5, the lens is ready for demanding outdoor use. A tactile focus ring, AF/MF switch, and integrated USB port for firmware updates add convenience and flexibility when working in the field.
