Portrait-perfect sharpness and bokehThere’s nothing like the sharpness and smooth bokeh of a well-designed mid-range telephoto prime lens for portraiture, and the SEL85F18 is a standout choice. It features a compact, lightweight design for mobility, with high-performance optics and a large F1.8 maximum aperture that deliver outstanding image quality. An excellent second lens for both full-frame and APS-C camera users.

Fine prime-lens performance

ED glass for chromatic aberration compensation, a 9-blade circular aperture and carefully controlled spherical aberration contribute to superb sharpness and smooth bokeh.

Mobile and manageable

A compact, lightweight (371 g, 13.1 oz) design that is ideally matched to the ?7 series offers a great blend of portability and high image quality for portraits, events and more.

Quiet, precise focus drive

A double linear motor system directly drives the lens’s focus mechanism without intervening gears for precise, quiet operation that is ideal for movies as well as stills.

Quality build, versatile features

A customizable 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.

Reliable in challenging conditions

A sealed dust- and moisture-resistant design provides extra protection and ensures reliable operation in challenging environments. Shoot with confidence in light rain or windy conditions..
