Ideal for portraiture, the Samyang 85mm f/1.4 short telephoto lens is a portrait-length prime designed for Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras. Its bright design enhances the ability for working in dimmer conditions and isolating subject matter due to greater control over the depth of field when working with both selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques. The optical design features a hybrid aspherical element to reduce distortion and spherical aberrations, resulting in higher degree of sharpness and improved clarity throughout the aperture range. An application of Ultra Multi-Coating on individual elements reduces ghosting and flare for greater contrast and colour fidelity when working in harsher lighting condition. The manual focus design allows close up photography, with a minimum focussing distance of 1.1m from subjects, while the rounded eight-blade diaphragm contributes to provide a pleasing bokeh effect. Use this weather-sealed manual focus lens with confidence in inclement weather conditions.
