  • Really good for the price point. (Sony e-mount)
Size: For Sony E
So far so good. I purchased this lens because I really wanted a 85mm 1.4 but didn’t want to break the bank. Sirui really knocked it out the park with this lens. The image quality is great really sharp in the middle. Light weight and the focus speed isn’t that bad. The only thing that I don’t like is that the aperture ring doesn’t lock. It doesn’t take much to accidentally change your aperture while shooting but that’s not a deal breaker. Overall it is a really good lens! ... show more

  • Professional feel at a enthusiast price.
Size: For Nikon Z
Great build quality, it metal barrel feels great, no flex or plastic texture. As a result the lens does weigh more than it's plastic competition but it's not uncomfortably heavy. I find the focus is fast for portraits and stills. Slight (you have to pixel peep to notice) chromatic aberration but is easily corrected in post. The aperture ring is a light light on the detent, can move it accidentally when changing lens or if you hold that far back on the lens. The images, what really matters, are amazing. I had a friend tell me once you use a F1.4 or F1.2 lens you will look at photos in a new way. And he was right. The images are sharp, the bokeh is exactly how you'd imagine f1.4 can give you. ... show more

  • Perfect for events and portrait lens.
Size: For Nikon Z
I just received this lens Z mount for my Nikon Z8 this evening and quickly tried it out. I just couldn't be happier to see its results. This is my best portrait lens I've ever had. It eliminated both foreground and background and turned them into nice creamy blur and bokeh. Its build quality on top of perfect image and discount price for F1.4 aperture are exceptional. I really couldn't complain, but just so happy that I actually purchased and tried it out. It really turned out to be my best choice. ... show more

  • Awesome lens at an affordable price!
Size: For Sony E
It came with latest firmware too, and works like a charm on my Sony A7III. The Bokeh is so creamy, and the subject is sharp. I like the color and contrast renditions too. I never expected this lens would be great, but it's one of my choice picks so far, and I'm a sigma fan, so that says a lot about this review. Improvement wise, it needs an Aperture lock button, other than that, everything is spot on ... show more

  • Amazing but just 1 thing…
Size: For Sony E
Image quality - A Autofocus speed - B+ Build quality - C I give build quality a C because of 2 things 1. The aperture ring is too close to the grip and digs into your fingers. Use it enough and you’ll start blistering 2. The aperture ring does not have a lock. So you may accidentally knock the lens into f16 by accident Those are my 2 qualms but it really is an amazing lens and I would recommend this well over the GM version. I’ve used both and optically you can’t tell the difference. So save yourself $1200 and get the Sirui ... show more

  • Great 85mm f1.4 lens!
Size: For Sony E
Solidly built, yet compact and not heavy. It somehow achieves f1.4 with a package similar to some of the f1.8 lenses. Sharpness is good in the center even wide open. I like the color and rendering as well. To me the image feels like it has some retro lens vibe to it though I can't point my finger on exactly why. Autofocus is quick for medium to distant objects. For fast moving subject moving towards you close to the lens (within 10 ft roughly) the AF starts to struggle. I get about 60% success in those scenarios. But for the price, hey, I can't complain. Fringing/flare/distortion wise, besides the heavy pincushion distortion I haven't noticed anything. And the pincushion reminds me of sigma art 85mm which is 2x the price. For now I'm giving it a pass. All in all, I'm pretty happy. Hope the AF will improve with a future firmware update. ... show more

  • Great lens with a few nice extras!
Size: For Sony E
My Sirui 85mm F1.4 just got in! No good pictures with it yet, just a quick snap of my cat in not-so-great light. I had a bit of delay getting it- first, it took some time to clear customs, then the shipper said I wasn't home on the first delivery attempt (I was). Nice little piece of kit. It came with a padded case and two 67mm filters (UV and black mist). Fit and finish seem fine, I'm not sure it needs to say "full frame" on it, but the clickable/smooth aperture ring is nice, and it works well. Big AFL button works well, some others had said it had an odd feel to it but mine doesn't. I have mine mapped to change focus area (wide, center, etc.). My other 85mm is the Sony 85mm F1.8- this lens certainly has a few more features, and it seems to be plenty sharp. It was (is?) on sale on Amazon for $499, I had some points from buying Christmas presents so it only cost me about $415. I have to say I'm pleased- and customer service has been great, they reached out to me to confirm my camera and mount before finalizing the order, they reached out again when the original delivery failed to see if they could help. If you are looking for a portrait lens that won't break the bank, I'd say go with this one- you won't be disappointed! ... show more
