According to our camera lens expert
With the Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 telephoto lens, you can take sharp portrait photos. The lens is suitable for Sony mirrorless cameras. Thanks to the f/1.8 maximum aperture, you create a natural background blur. This puts more focus on the person you're photographing. You can also take sharp photos in dark locations thanks to the large opening of the lens at f/1.8. The design is compact and it weighs 371g, so you can easily take the lens with you. This is very useful if you often take photos on location. You don't have to be scared of the rain. The lens has dust and splash seals. The silent autofocus system makes the lens suitable for video recordings. Thanks to this, you don't hear bothersome sound in your recordings.

To test this lens I did a car shoot with a friend and it turned out really nice pictures. Especially since this lens brings the subject closer and also brings the background closer than it really is. It is a very compact lens. I use it on a Sony a6400 and it all works perfectly.

Since I am making more and more portraits as a professional, I was looking for a replacement for an older lens with manual focus for my FF Sony. This 85mm does its job excellently and as a light lens it is very suitable for long-term hand-holding.
