Tokina ATX 85mm F/1.8 FE | Sony Mount

The Tokina E-mount atx-m 85mm f/1.8 FE is an exceptional lens for portrait photography, offering a versatile short-telephoto option that combines a bright design with a widely favored focal length. Its f/1.8 maximum aperture is ideal for challenging lighting conditions, enhancing depth of field control while maintaining a compact size for everyday use. The optical design includes a low dispersion element to minimize color fringing and chromatic aberrations, complemented by a Super Low Reflection Multi-Coating that reduces flare, thereby improving contrast and color fidelity in bright environments. Additionally, the ST-M autofocus system provides rapid and nearly silent focusing, while the nine-blade diaphragm enhances bokeh quality, making it suitable for selective focus shots.

• The portrait-length prime lens is specifically engineered for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, but it is also compatible with APS-C models, offering a focal length equivalent to 127.5mm.
  
  
• With a bright f/1.8 aperture, this lens strikes an optimal balance between compactness and speed, maintaining a streamlined profile while catering to depth of field and low-light shooting requirements.
  
  
• The optical design incorporates one SD low dispersion element, which effectively mitigates chromatic aberrations and color fringing, thereby enhancing clarity and color precision.
  
  
• The Super Low Reflection Multi-Coating minimizes ghosting and flare, resulting in improved contrast and color fidelity, while also providing a protective barrier against water, oil, and dust on the front lens element.
  
  
• Equipped with an ST-M stepping motor, the lens delivers rapid and notably quiet autofocus performance. The all-metal focus unit enhances the manual focus experience, offering a more controlled and dampened feel. Furthermore, the internal focusing mechanism reduces the overall length of the lens and facilitates quicker focusing speeds.
  
  
• The nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a visually appealing bokeh effect.
  
  
• Additionally, the lens mount features an electronic interface that transmits all lens Exif data to the camera and is fully compatible with various in-camera functionalities, including image stabilization, Eye AF, MF assist, and other features.
