Excellent in portraiture, theĀ Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USMĀ is a short-telephoto prime lens distinguished by its vaguely compressed perspective for getting flattering results. Its bright f/1.8 maximum aperture also allows isolating subjects and working with shallow depth of field techniques, and further made for working in low-light conditions. To help to get high color fidelity and contrast, a Super Spectra coating has been put into individual elements and serves to reduce reflections, lens flare, and ghosting. Additionally, a ring-type USM is induced to produce fast and silent autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus control.
- Short-telephoto, portrait-length prime is made for full-frame Canon EF-mount DSLRs, however, it is compatible with APS-C models where it produces a 136mm equivalent focal length.
- Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture is perfect working in low-light conditions and also produces great control over depth of field for working with selective focus techniques.
- Super Spectra coating has been coated to individual elements to reduce ghosting and flare for great contrast and color neutrality while working in strong lighting conditions.
- A ring-type Ultrasonic Motor is working to deliver quick, precise, and silent autofocus performance as well as manual focus override. Additionally, the front of the lens does not rotate during focusing to better allowing working with polarizing and graduated filter types.
- The rounded eight-blade diaphragm put up to a pleasing out-of-focus quality that interests the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.
