An award-winning portrait lens, the Canon RF-mount Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 is a short telephoto lens characterized by its fast f/1.4 maximum aperture. This bright design suits low-light conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field for isolating the subject.

The optical design incorporates a hybrid aspherical element that helps to reduce distortion and spherical aberrations for a high degree of sharpness and accurate rendering.

An Ultra Multi-Coating has also been applied to reduce flare and ghosting in order to achieve greater contrast and color fidelity.

The manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 1.1m away, and an eight-blade rounded diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
