Pros & Cons
PROs
The "King" of Portrait: The combination of 85mm and $f/1.2$ is the gold standard for portraits with three-dimensional plane separation. Extreme Sharpness: Its design with 11 high refractive index elements and 5 ED glasses ensures outstanding image quality from $f/1.2$. Total Physical Control: Includes customizable button (AFL) and focus switch, improving ergonomics during the session. Design for Video: The fluid aperture ring (de-click) allows natural light transitions in film productions. Elite Construction: Highly durable metal materials and professional climate sealing.
CONs
High Weight: At approximately 1.5 kg, it is a heavy lens that requires a good grip and can become tiring after hours of use. Filter Size: It uses an 86mm thread, which requires investing in large and expensive filters. Focus on Short Distances: Its minimum distance of 85 cm does not allow extremely close detail planes.
