Samyang Announces AF 85mm F1.4 FE II Lens

Samyang announces the second generation Samyang AF 85mm f/1.4 FE II Lens ($799) which reduces both size and weight while improving optical and autofocus performance. Featuring 11 optical elements arranged into 8 groups, it utilizes a series of high-refraction and extra-low dispersion elements to achieve a glass surface that delivers smooth, creamlike bokeh. For this same purpose, the lens is equipped with a nine-bladed aperture diaphragm. The autofocus system has been reworked with an STM motor that acquires subjects quickly and quietly and can be controlled in a number of ways thanks to its customizable AF Lock button and focus ring. The body of the lens, made entirely out of metal, sports full weather sealing to keep out moisture, dust, and other contaminants

1. Smaller size and lighter weight
2. Excellent resolution and creamy bokeh from F1.4 fast lens
3. Quieter, faster and more accurate AF performance with linear STM motor
4. Professional control & upgraded reliability

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the founding of Samyang Optics, Samyang Optics is introducing second-generation AF lenses with upgraded performance. Starting with the first renewal product, the AF 50mm F1.4 FE II, the AF 35mm F1.4 FE II, and this time the AF 85mm F1.4 FE II second-generation lens is newly announced.
