We review the Samyang 85mm F1.4 AF lens (vs Sony 85mm F1.8) lens by looking at sharpness, vignetting, bokeh, distortion, chromatic aberration, and more.
The Samyang 85mm F1.4 AF is a spectacular lens for portrait shooters looking for something more than just sharpness. The Sony 85mm F1.8 is an excellent all-around lens that is very sharp, has low distortion, and produces beautiful bokeh with minimal chromatic aberration.
While the video is mostly about the Samyang 85mm, the Sony 85mm is used as a cross reference point. If you enjoy the video, please like and subscribe.
