15 Elements in 11 Groups: Optics Refined to Perfection

At its heart, the AF 85 mm F1.4 Pro FE uses: 

 

 • 3 ED (Extra‑Low Dispersion) elements to suppress chromatic aberration 

 • 9 HR (High Refractive‑Index) elements to pack exceptional resolving power into a compact form 

 • 1 Ultra‑Precision Aspherical element to eliminate spherical aberration, tame distortion, and reduce onion‑ring bokeh artifacts 

 

Featuring multiple specialized elements, this lens delivers razor-sharp contrast and excellent corner-to-corner consistency—even wide open at F1.4—setting a new standard for 85mm portrait lenses.

From Pin‑Sharp Detail to Dreamy Bokeh

Edge‑to‑Edge Clarity

Even at F1.4, this lens delivers clinical sharpness across the frame—perfect for today’s 50 MP (and higher) sensors. Fine textures, from eyelashes to fabric weaves, resolve with surgical precision.

Ideal 85 mm Compression

Its 28°–29° diagonal field of view provides natural perspective compression, eliminating the facial distortion of wider lenses and the flattening of longer telephotos. Mid‑distance portraits (2–3 m) render with lifelike proportions and immersive three‑dimensionality.

Buttery‑Smooth Bokeh

The large F1.4 aperture produces smooth, round-highlight bokeh without onion rings. Out-of-focus highlights gently dissolve into creamy discs, creating a pleasingly soft background blur.

One Lens for Every Portrait Vision

Studio & Fashion Portraits

Precise control of shallow depth of field brings models and details into vivid relief against muted backdrops.

Wedding & Event Photography

Fast HyperVCM autofocus and F1.4 brightness freeze fleeting moments in low‑light venues without raising ISO.

Environmental & Editorial

The 85 mm focal length isolates subjects within complex scenes, directing viewer attention exactly where you intend.

Close‑Up & Product Shoots

With 0.79 m minimum focus and floating elements, it captures fine textures—skin pores, fabric threads—while maintaining smooth background separation.

Tailored for All Creatives

Versatile yet specialized, the AF 85 mm F1.4 Pro FE excels wherever portrait artistry demands both clinical detail and sublime bokeh.
