    Allows you to capture intricately detailed images without getting too close to your subject. Concentrates the focus on a narrow field of view for vivid close-up shots.
  • 85mm focal length
    Beautifully isolates your subject from the background. This versatile focal length blends depth and dimension for stunning portraits, action shots, and low-light images.
  • f/1.8 maximum aperture
    Ideal for optimal light-gathering capacity, resulting in clear, highly detailed images. Circular nine-blade aperture offers beautiful defocus effect.

    Conveniently enables fast selection between autofocus or manual focus without having to access any menus.

  • Double linear motor system
    Directly drives the lens’s focus mechanism without intervening gears for precise, quiet operation that is ideal for movies as well as stills.
  • Internal focusing
    Only the middle groups of the optical system move to achieve focus, so the overall length of the lens does not change when focusing.
  • Extra-low dispersion glass element
    Effectively reduces chromatic aberration and provides high contrast across the entire image.
  • Dust- and moisture-resistant construction
    Enjoy extra protection and reliable operation in challenging environments. Shoot with confidence in light rain or windy conditions.

  1. SrikrishnaG –

    When i first thought if buying i had fear, but its amazing. Its been couple months im using this lens and had amazing photography experience using this in bith day light and low light. The lower aperture in this lens will help amazing light during night photography. I recommend this.

  2. Savannah –

    This is an amazing portait lens! It works well on animals, cars, and other objects too! It also has a very nice built in color sceme that makes photos look preedited

  3. Deva –

    The lens features outstanding sharpness, excellent bokeh, and focuses quietly. I am surprised Sony didn’t issue this lens as one of their G series lenses.

  4. TommyT –

    I’ve been taking pictures for quite a long time.
    This is hands down the best lens I’ve ever purchased.
    Super fast autofocus and clean sharp photos. The details it captures are insane. Highly recommended.

  5. Mecdjino –

    Fantastic lens. You won’t be disappointed. For many, 85mm seems to always be a default portrait lens…but it can be so much more when you have imagination! Let you creativity shine through!

  6. austinm –

    Great lens for photos and videos. If you intend on taking any kind of photography or videography, its great for low light and bokeh.

  7. Abey –

    One of the best prime lenses I have used. It is as good as the GM lens which is almost triple the price

  8. IGMrCodigos –

    Really good lense. Nice and sharp pictures. Easy to use

  9. DanJ08 –

    Great lens for starters, really like the 85mm for shooting portraits

  10. ShantePrice –

    This 85mm came in handy for me with my car photography and my youtube channel, I appreciate the support and growth with the help of Bestbuy

  11. jojo –

    best lens i’ve had for a beginners like me and it’s pretty sharp photo

  12. SoundUpNow –

    I actually returned this lens due to my specific needs… BUT the quality of photos were amazing. For most shoots this lens is perfect, but if you need it to focus fast and actually this may not be it. I could’ve had a bad unit but I missed some photos of kids on the beach due to it focusing too slow, breathing or missing. I swapped my 50mm on just to be sure and it was perfect. A7III and updated.

  13. AngelM –

    Very fast and sharp lens cant ask for more. My a6100 performs great with this lens.

  14. Cody –

    Exceeded my expectations with the clarity it provided and overall quality of images. Highly recommend

  15. Camman –

    Great values, great picture quality, low profile easy to use.

  16. Vick62 –

    This item doesn’t work with my camera it doesn’t do autofocus

  17. CesarP –

    Amazing for portraits, and good with close pictures of nature!!

  18. MateusS –

    This product is very good! I recommend it. Amazing!

  19. RoDa –

    I recently had the chance to test out the Sony 85mm f/1.8 prime lens for portrait sessions and here are my thoughts.

    Even though it has a slightly slower f/1.8 aperture compared to an f/1.4 lens, the Sony 85mm f/1.8 still provides beautiful background blur and subject isolation for portraits. The optical quality is very good with sharp focus across the frame when shooting wide open at f/1.8.

    The autofocus performance is snappy thanks to Sony’s quiet linear motor, though not quite as fast as the top-end GM lenses. Still, I found it locked focus very reliably on the subject’s eyes during portrait shoots. The circular 9-blade aperture gives nice smooth bokeh when shooting wide open.

    This is a much more affordable 85mm prime lens compared to the GM version, but still provides excellent quality and performance for portrait photographers. The compact and lightweight design makes it highly portable for carrying around for portrait sessions.

    Overall, the Sony 85mm f/1.8 is a great value choice for Sony shooters looking for a fast prime lens specifically for portraits. While not inexpensive, it costs significantly less than the GM version while still delivering sharp, beautiful image quality. If you’re on a budget but want superb 85mm performance, this lens comes highly recommended.

    I love the image it gives! I use this for portraits and I get a lot of detail.

  32. JohnT –

    Excellent lens for the price! Produces clean, crisp images and is small for an 85mm 1.8. Must have for not only budget minded Photographers, but pros as well.

  37. Felimon –

    Exactly what I need for daughter’s volleyball games. Good low light performance and sharp in focus.

  38. BestConsole –

    Great for getting that HD wide shot and can reach pretty far for that pic you wanna take but can’t get close to.

  39. Awool –

    This is a great lens. Very clear and fast focusing. It is also good in low light because of it being an f/1.8.
