Review (Summary): "Compact and portable telephoto lens that is ideal for portraits. Rear focusing for fast AF operation. Subtle blurring of background for beautifully natural and evocative portraits. ...
... the 85mm is an excellent lens, offering class-leading performance for chromatic aberration, very low corner shading at wide apertures, and practically no distortion. Sharpness is excellent at ƒ/2.8, only showing a touch of softness when used wide open. For the price, if you need the 85mm focal length, the lens is an excellent option we have no trouble recommending. ..."
