The FE 85 mm F1.4 GM II follows the acclaimed FE 85 mm F1.4 GM with equally superb bokeh plus higher resolution at all apertures thanks to the latest lens technology. It also supports full AF speed and precision with α-series bodies. The lens is remarkably compact and lightweight, adding agility to extraordinary image quality. A great G Master portrait lens for maximum creative control.
The FE 85 mm F1.4 GM II features Sony’s latest lens technology, following the acclaimed FE 85 mm F1.4 GM with equally stunning bokeh and higher resolution even at F1.4. It offers full AF performance with α-series bodies and is remarkably compact and lightweight. The perfect G Master portrait lens for maximum agility and creative control.
Two XA (extreme aspherical) elements achieve eye-opening resolution right out to the image edges, while two ED (extra-low dispersion) glass elements minimize chromatic aberration. Sony’s Nano AR Coating II suppresses flare and ghosting for outstanding resolution and clarity. Minimum focus distance is 2.79ft (0.85 m) (AF)/2.63ft (0.8 m) (MF).
The acclaimed performance of the previous model is enhanced by new optics that control chromatic aberration for more natural bokeh. An 11-blade circular aperture helps too, while precisely controlled spherical aberration and XA (extreme aspherical) elements reduce onion-ring bokeh for smooth transitions from sharp focus to deep F1.4 bokeh.
2 XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors and high-speed control give the FE 85 mm F1.4 GM II up to 3x faster5 AF speed. Moving subject tracking is improved by as much as 7x6, for reliable capture even when using narrow depth of field at F1.4. The 120fps capability of the α9 III with its global shutter is fully supported.
First-class bokeh and resolution in a compact lens. XA (extreme aspherical) elements, refined optics, XD (extreme dynamic) motors and a circular aperture unit achieve superb large-aperture performance in an 3-3/8 in (84.7 mm) x 4-1/4 in (107.3 mm) lens that weighs only 22.7 oz (642 g). 13%8 less volume and 20% less mass for agile shooting.
The FE 85 mm F1.4 GM II is ideal for filming people. It works with Real-time Recognition AF in α-series bodies, for fast, precise, quiet subject tracking that maintains sharp focus even at F1.4. Focus breathing is minimal and body breathing compensation is supported. Clickless aperture ring operation and Linear Response MF allow smooth, intuitive control.
A dust- and moisture-resistant design ensures reliability in challenging outdoor conditions. The front lens element features a fluorine coating that repels fingerprints, dust, water, oil and other contaminants.
Two customizable focus hold buttons and an AF/MF switch offer flexible operability, while an independent aperture ring and Linear Response MF focus control provide the kind of intuitive control that creative shooting demands. The FE 85 mm F1.4 GM II accepts 77 mm threaded filters.
Sony’s “Road to Zero” project aims for a zero environmental footprint by 2050. The environmental footprint of this product has been minimized from development through supply chain, production and packaging. We are also transitioning to non-plastic packaging materials. Plant-based non-woven fabrics are used for product bags.
