Sony has announced the large aperture mid-telephoto prime lens 'FE 85mm F1.4 GM II'. The release date is set for September 20, 2024. The open price is estimated to be around 300,000 yen.
This lens, a successor to the 'FE 85mm F1.4 GM' released in 2016, combines superior optical performance with a compact design, surpassing its predecessor. It caters to a wide range of users from professionals to amateurs, offering a more refined shooting experience.
Next-Generation Optical Performance and Image Quality
The 'FE 85mm F1.4 GM II' achieves optical performance worthy of the G Master series name. It is designed to faithfully reproduce the texture and details of subjects' skin, providing a soft bokeh effect, especially in portrait photography. The combination of the latest XA (extreme aspherical) lens and ED (extra-low dispersion) glass minimizes chromatic aberration and distortion, delivering clear images across the entire frame.
