Is Sony 85mm f1.8 good for Street Photography ? | Urban Photography in Sydney
In this episode, I am going to try and find out Is Sony 85mm f1.8 good for Street Photography? Especially 85mm focal for street photography. And also going to share my shots taken on Sydney Streets and will review them.
Here is some of the information regarding the Sony 85mm f1.8 lens (Source: Sony)
There's nothing like the sharpness and smooth bokeh of a well-designed mid-range telephoto prime lens for portraiture, and the SEL85F18 is a standout choice.
It features a compact, lightweight design for mobility, with high-performance optics and a large F1.8 maximum aperture that delivers outstanding image quality.
An excellent second lens for both full-frame and APS-C camera users. ED glass for chromatic aberration compensation, a 9-blade circular aperture, and carefully controlled spherical aberration contribute to superb sharpness and smooth bokeh.
A compact, lightweight (13.1 oz/371 g) design that is ideally matched to the α7 series offers a great blend of portability and high image quality for portraits, events, and more.
A double linear motor system directly drives the lens's focus mechanism without intervening gears for a precise, quiet operation that is ideal for movies as well as stills.
A customizable focus hold button, a wide and responsive focus ring, dust and moisture-resistant design1, and other refinements add up to outstanding quality and versatility.
