Sony has introduced the FE 85mm F1.4 GM II lens, in India. This second-generation portrait lens is intended to improve both photography and videography experiences, for portraiture, weddings, travel and cinematic video production. The new lens improves on its predecessor's optical design by adding certain technology to provide better performance.
The lens has a lighter and more compact design than the original 85mm F1.4 GM. Weighing 642 grammes, it is approximately 20 per cent lighter and 13 per cent smaller in capacity. Its optical design incorporates two XA (extreme aspherical) and two ED (extra-low dispersion) elements to reduce aberrations.
The FE 85mm F1.4 GM II has a 77 mm filter diameter and measures 84.7 mm by 107.3 mm in length. The lens features an XD linear motor for quick and smooth autofocus that is, as claimed, up to three times faster than its predecessor. For video production, the lens has two customisable focus hold buttons, an AF/MF switch, an independent aperture ring and Linear Response MF focus control, offering better flexibility and easy handling for creative filmmaking.
The lens costs Rs 1,80,990 and is available at Sony Centres, Alpha Flagship stores, approved dealers and major electronic outlets in India. It can also be purchased online from Amazon and Flipkart.
