Expanded Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E Key Features:
Wide aperture for depth of field control and bokeh
The Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 for Sony E delivers exceptional results where light is limited, thanks to its wide f1.4 aperture. This bright maximum aperture enables faster shutter speeds and lower ISO settings, preserving image quality in challenging conditions. The lens can also produce rich, creamy background blur, bringing attention to the subject with beautifully rendered bokeh that enhances portrait work and adds depth to any composition.
Advanced optical design for impressive image quality
Featuring an optical structure of 15 elements in 11 groups, the lens incorporates three extra-low dispersion (ED) glass elements that significantly reduce chromatic aberration, nine high refractive index (HR) elements that promote high resolution across the frame, and one ultra-precision aspherical (UA) element that effectively controls distortion. This optical design ensures edge-to-edge sharpness, while HD multilayer nano coatings reduce flare and ghosting, delivering clean, high-contrast results even in challenging lighting situations. The Viltrox Dual Hyper VCM autofocus system offers rapid, near-silent focusing performance, along with reliable face and eye detection for precise subject tracking. This makes it ideal for dynamic portrait sessions or capturing spontaneous moments.
Durable build with user-friendly features
The Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E is designed to offer convenience and protection in varying conditions. Its customisable fn button and control switches offer additional handling options for fast access to frequently used settings such as autofocus and manual focus modes. To protect the lens, its robust metal construction is weather-sealed against dust and splashes, while the front element’s protective coating repels moisture and fingerprints. A USB port enables straightforward firmware updates to keep the lens performing optimally.

Is the Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E compatible with filters?

How compact and lightweight is the Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E for travel use?
The lens measures approximately 84.5 mm in diameter and 108.5 mm in length, weighing around 800 g (1.8 lb). While not the most compact option, it remains a manageable choice for photographers prioritising image quality and a bright aperture. Its solid construction and balance on Sony full-frame bodies make it practical for location shooting.
What angle of view does the Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E provide?
The lens offers a 28° angle of view on full-frame Sony E-mount cameras. This focal length and angle of view are well-suited for portraits, providing flattering compression that separates the subject from the background. It’s also useful for detail shots where subject isolation is essential.
Is the Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E designed for full-frame cameras only?
The Viltrox AF 85mm f1.4 Lens for Sony E is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras, delivering its intended field of view and optical performance on these bodies.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
