Fast-Aperture Portrait-Length Prime. The Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 FE II provides full-frame coverage on Sony E-mount cameras. Its fast f/1.8 aperture enables great low-light performance, wide-angle images, and shallow depth of field. The short-telephoto focal length is popular for dedicated portrait shooters, wedding photographers, and event photographers. Using an APS-C sensor camera? You’ll have a focal length equivalent to 127.5mm.

Advanced Optical Design. The 85mm f/1.8 FE II’s seven-group/ten-element design includes one extra-low dispersion element, one large-diameter aspherical element, and four highly transparent glass elements, all of which ensure image sharpness and color accuracy while combating aberrations. A water-resistant, HD Nano multilayer coating on the individual elements minimizes lens flare and ghosting, helping to provide high contrast.

STM Autofocus System. The STM autofocus motor gives you precise, nearly silent performance, and lets you work with subjects up to 2.6 feet away.

High-Quality Build. This lens boasts a lightweight but durable metal build, while the included lens hood helps keep flare at bay. Electronic contacts convey EXIF data to the camera and let you select aperture on your camera.
