An all-round lens for portraiture, the Sony E-mount atx-m 85mm f/1.8 FE from Tokina is a versatile short telephoto lens that combines a bright design with a popular focal length. The f/1.8 maximum aperture is suitable for work in difficult lighting conditions and aids depth-of-field control. A low dispersion element is incorporated in the optical design to reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations. An ST-M autofocus system offers fast and near-silent focusing performance and a nine-blade diaphragm also contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
