Fast, sharp prime lens that I use for portrait photography. Bought this to go with my Sony A7RV, and ive been very happy with it. Does a great job with creating a shallow depth of field when used wide open.

This lens has stepped up the quality of my shots A LOT! Its clear and produces amazing shots. Definitely more of a portrait lens in my opinion. It’s hard to use in tight areas since there isn’t a way to zoom out, but you probably already knew that if you’re looking at this lens. Image quality is top notch! I use it with my Sony a6000.

This lens is an absolute beast, it’s super fast and sharp. Gmaster lenses in general would be my first choice to purchase. It is expensive but I think worth every penny. I think at any level of photographer this lens is good both learn on and use daily.

Absolutely worth the price for the amazing performance and quality of the lens. If on a budget I would recommend the Sony FE 85mm 1.8 lens as it's even sharper than the battle and cost efficient.

I've always wanted an 85mm lens and this one hasn't disappointed me. I've used this on a Sony A6000 with great results. Good bokeh. Would like it better if it had image stabilization for use with our Sony FS5 video camera.

I wrestled between this lens and the Zeiss 85 1.8 Batis, but chose this lens and am very satisfied with it. Indeed, this lens is the Superlative Portrait Lens for Sony e-Mount! You might hear of slow focus issues and AF noise, but rest assured: if you want the best Sony can provide for a portrait lens, this is their best current offering. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
