SiruiAurora 85mm F1.4 Full Frame Auto Focus Telephoto Prime Portrait Lens for E Mount Cameras FX3, FX6, A7 Series, A7R, A7S, A9, ZV-E1

I’m extremely impressed with the performance of this lens on my Sony A7 IV. The image quality is sharp and vibrant, and the build quality rivals that of much more expensive lenses. It came beautifully packaged, complete with a well-designed carrying bag, definitely a premium presentation.Yes, it’s a bit bulky and heavy especially with the lens hood attached its big lens but I don't mind the size at all considering the stunning results it delivers. I did try it with the Weebill 3E gimbal (which I ultimately returned), and the lens body was almost touching the gimbal, so keep that in mind if you're using compact stabilizers. It fits well in Sony camera bag along with other big lens, camera with lens attached.Prior purchase, i saw some negatibe reviews about focus breathing, but i think Sirui has already fixed with upgraded firmware. I haven't updated or checked firmware yet.No noise at all with focus and perfect for videos.Overall, I highly recommend this lens for everyone from beginners to professional photographers. I’m eagerly looking forward to more full-frame options in the Siuri Aurora series, especially a 35mm at a reasonable price point!

Ridiculous nice bokeh, great color rendering, good sharpness at f1.4, fast AF in most situations. I am using Canon EF 1.2L ii and Leica R 80mm 1.4 with techart ea7. This lens is better in every way comparing to Leica R 80/1.4 except one, distortion. However, for less than 1/4 price and 300 grams less weight, I decided to keep this. Here are 2 photos from this lens and Leica R80...

Image quality - AAutofocus speed - B+Build quality - CI give build quality a C because of 2 things1. The aperture ring is too close to the grip and digs into your fingers. Use it enough and you’ll start blistering2. The aperture ring does not have a lock. So you may accidentally knock the lens into f16 by accidentThose are my 2 qualms but it really is an amazing lens and I would recommend this well over the GM version. I’ve used both and optically you can’t tell the difference. So save yourself $1200 and get the Sirui

I've been a fan of Sirui's anamorphic cinema lenses for a while but I honestly didn't even know they made spherical lenses. My Nikkor 24-70mm ƒ2.8 is my workhorse lens and I probably shoot 90% of my photos with it, but I've been wanting a good portrait lens ever since I moved to mirrorless and sold off my F-mount lensesUnfortunately, I don't do enough portrait work these days to justify dropping $2600 on Nikon's lovely 85mm ƒ1.2 Z-mount lens, but when I got the e-mail announcing the 85mm Auroria (with Black Friday discount to boot), I impulse bought it without even thinking. It helped that I had almost exactly the right amount of points on my credit card to get it without spending cash, I'll admit.But, even if I had paid cash out of pocket, I would have zero regrets. It's a really freaking nice lens.As with all of Sirui's lenses, the build quality is great, especially considering the price point. It also somehow manages to feel both modern and vintage at the same time. The satisfying clicking you can turn on when using manual aperture brings me back a few decades, but the option to also spin it to A and just use it like any other Z-mount autofocus lens really seals the deal.I haven't had a chance to really use it in anger yet, but I took a few test shots around my studio and a couple outdoors after sunset. The low-light performance is really solid and the bokeh is really beautiful.I also shot a test grid out of curiosity. There is a bit of pincushion distortion, but it's pretty minimal and nothing that you would notice in most real-world shots.I'm very much looking forward to running this lens through its paces, but I have little doubt it's going to quickly become my #2 lens for still photography.

Absolutely worth adding to your bag. The cost vs performance is INSANE. If I wanted to get this level of performance from a native lens like Nikon or Sony I’m sure this would easily cost 3-4x the cost. 100% worth it.

😍 I love this lens I hope you guys make a 50 and 35 like this soon to fit me collection.

My Sirui 85mm F1.4 just got in! No good pictures with it yet, just a quick snap of my cat in not-so-great light.I had a bit of delay getting it- first, it took some time to clear customs, then the shipper said I wasn't home on the first delivery attempt (I was).Nice little piece of kit. It came with a padded case and two 67mm filters (UV and black mist). Fit and finish seem fine, I'm not sure it needs to say "full frame" on it, but the clickable/smooth aperture ring is nice, and it works well. Big AFL button works well, some others had said it had an odd feel to it but mine doesn't. I have mine mapped to change focus area (wide, center, etc.).My other 85mm is the Sony 85mm F1.8- this lens certainly has a few more features, and it seems to be plenty sharp.It was (is?) on sale on Amazon for $499, I had some points from buying Christmas presents so it only cost me about $415. I have to say I'm pleased- and customer service has been great, they reached out to me to confirm my camera and mount before finalizing the order, they reached out again when the original delivery failed to see if they could help.If you are looking for a portrait lens that won't break the bank, I'd say go with this one- you won't be disappointed!

Muy bonita presentación! Buen lente
