Autofocus Full Frame Fast Aperture Telephoto Lens &Ndash; Sony Fe Mount
Samyang AF 135mm F1.8 Sony FE - 8029SUPERB RESOLUTIONUnsparing application of Samyang's most advanced optical technologies has produced a large-aperture prime telephoto lens that delivers outstanding corner-to-corner resolution. The AF 135mm F1.8 FE delivers an 18.9? angle of view for full-frame and 12.5? for APS-C. It features a bright maximum aperture of F1.8 as favoured by full-frame camera users. In particular optimum resolution is achieved through the optical design of 13 elements in 11 groups (1 U-ASP 2 HR and 3 ED). Combined with Sony's full-frame image sensor this lens delivers superior sharpness and contrast in all areas of the image.ABLE TO DELIVER EXTREMELY NARROW DEPTH OF FIELD WITH BEAUTIFUL BOKEHThe AF 135mm F1.8 FE uses a large-diameter aperture to provide smooth background blur. It effectively allows separation of the subject from the background by using a shallow depth of field. Also it is equipped with a UA (Ultra-precision Aspherical) lens which delivers natural and refined bokeh. Using this smooth bokeh you can freely create images highlighting your subjects against stunning backgrounds whether shooting portraits close-ups or even cityscapes.FAST AND QUIET AUTO FOCUS PERFORMANCETracking the subject accurately and quickly the AF also operates quietly and smoothly when shooting video. Samyang's Linear STM (Stepping Motor) satisfies both photographers and videographers with quieter and more accurate control of the focusing lens groups.ENHANCED OPERABILITY AND RELIABILITYImportant features include customisable: Focus Hold button Custom Switch and Focus Range Limiter. Overall this is a lens that meets and exceeds professional requirement for control and reliability for both stills and movies.Focus Hold ButtonPressing this button on the lens will keep the lens locked to that focusing distance. You can assign functions such as Eye AF in settings on the camera body.Custom SwitchThere is a custom switch which can be set to allow adjustment of the aperture silently by rotating the focus ring. Using the optional Lens Station you can set up the mode to suit your own preference*.(*More functions will be added through firmware updates in the future)Focus Range Limiter switchThe Focus Range Limiter only operates in AF mode but can be useful to speed up focusing once the distance from an object has been determined:Focus Range Limiter is moved forward or backward to select the focus range as follows:FULL: The AF range is set between infinity and the minimum focus distance of 0.69m.0.69m - 2m: The AF range is set between 0.69m and 2m suitable for close-up shooting.1.5m - Infinity: The AF range is set from 1.5m to infinity which is suitable for normal shooting.SHORT MINIMUM FOCAL DISTANCE OF 0.69MAlthough this is a 135mm telephoto Samyang has managed to effectively control aberration at all focusing distances. It has also achieved a minimum focus distance of just 69cm (2.26ft) and a maximum magnification of 0.243x for close-up photography. Small accessories and other subjects can be captured with remarkable resolution and beautiful soft background bokeh.MODERN DESIGN AND WEATHER-SEALINGThe AF 135mm F1.8 FE has been developed and enhanced taking into consideration not only the design features but also the user's shooting environment. It has a micro-patterned rubber focus ring which feels great to operate and the weather-sealing protects the lens from light rain snow and dust.Features:• Autofocus full frame fast aperture telephoto lens – Sony FE Mount• Fast Autofocus evolution of Samyang’s popular MF 135mm F2 lens• Full-frame coverage optimised for use on Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras• Prime lens with superb resolution• Narrow depth of field and beautiful bokeh• Compact length (129.6mm) & Lightweight (772g)• Fast and Quiet AF performance (Real-time Tracking / Seamless Cinematic Control)• Excellent chromatic aberration (CA) control with 3 ED lenses.• Enhanced usability with custom switch (also features Astro-Focus Mode)• Close minimum focus distance of 69cm• New modern design & Weather-SealingSpecifications:• Closest Focusing Distance: 0.69m• Diagonal Angle of View: 18.9?
