Canon EF 85mm F/1.8 USM
Celebrated for its excellence in portrait photography, the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM stands out as a short-telephoto prime lens, known for its unique ability to slightly compress perspectives, delivering exceptionally flattering images. Its luminous f/1.8 maximum aperture not only facilitates the isolation of subjects, making it perfect for experimenting with shallow depth-of-field effects, but it also shines in low-light situations, ensuring your captures are always radiant.

- Optimized for full-frame Canon EF-mount DSLRs and adaptable to APS-C models for a 136mm equivalent focal length, this lens opens a wide spectrum of shooting possibilities. Its f/1.8 aperture excels in low-light conditions and provides extensive control over depth of field, allowing for selective focus and creative storytelling.
- Enhanced with Super Spectra coating, the lens counters ghosting and flare, ensuring high contrast and color accuracy in bright conditions. The ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM) guarantees quick, accurate, and silent autofocus, with the added benefit of full-time manual focus override. This feature is crucial for precise narrative control, and the non-rotating front element facilitates the use of polarizing and graduated filters, broadening creative options.
- The lens is crafted with a rounded eight-blade diaphragm, creating a visually pleasing bokeh that accentuates the subject against the background, ideal for selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques. Altogether, the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM lens combines optical precision, versatility, and creative control, making it an invaluable tool for advancing your filmmaking and cinematography projects.
