## Long description

The Samyang AF 85mm f/1.8 P for Sony full-frame cameras is a prime portrait lens designed to deliver natural perspective and reliable image quality for portraiture and lifestyle photography. With an 85mm focal length and a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture, the lens produces shallow depth of field, smooth background separation and improved low-light performance. Compact and lightweight, this autofocus lens is made for photographers seeking a practical, camera-mounted portrait optic for everyday use and event shooting.
Advantages
The lens provides a fast f/1.8 aperture that enables subject isolation and better performance in dim lighting without pushing ISO. Its 85mm focal length yields flattering perspective for headshots and upper-body portraits while maintaining comfortable working distance between photographer and subject. Autofocus operation is designed for straightforward use on Sony full-frame systems, and the compact form factor makes the lens easy to carry and handle during extended shoots.
Suitable for
 Studio and on-location portrait sessions
 Headshots for corporate or actor portfolios
 Event and wedding photography where a medium telephoto is needed
 Lifestyle and editorial photography with subject isolation

How to use
Mount the lens on a compatible Sony full-frame camera body until it locks securely. Use aperture priority or manual exposure modes to control depth of field; set the aperture to f/1.8 for strong background blur or stop down progressively to increase sharpness across the frame. Rely on autofocus for quick subject acquisition in most shooting situations; switch to manual focus when precise control is required for critical focus on the subject's eyes. Maintain a comfortable distance—typically one to three meters depending on framing—for natural facial proportions and flattering perspective.
Usage recommendations
For consistent portrait results, prioritize focusing on the nearest eye and use single-point AF when available. To maximize subject separation, choose a wide aperture and position the subject several meters away from the background. When shooting in low light, combine the f/1.8 aperture with moderate ISO and steady shooting technique or stabilization to minimize blur.
