Legendary Zeiss Otus Quality. Zeiss bring their historically high standards into the new age with their Otus line of lenses designed specifically for mirrorless cameras. An ulra-smooth, mechanically-linked metal focus ring, optimized lens element placement, and accurate color reproduction enhance the entire photography experience when using a Zeiss Otus. With a de-clickable aperture ring, they are also a great choice for cinematography.
Reliable Performance. Even in challenging conditions, the Zeiss Otus ML 85mm f/1.4 can be depended on thanks to special seals that protect it from dust, moisture, and splashes. This all-metal lens is also temperature-resistant and able to function in hot and cold weather. Rigorous testing has been conducted to ensure the best possible vibration resistance.
Portrait Perfect. The Zeiss Otus ML 85mm f/1.4 is designed with portraits in mind. It is equipped with 10 aperture blades for pleasing bokeh. It is manual focus only, which is standard for Zeiss. Beautiful yellow scale and aperture engravings give the lens a classic look in addition to making quick adjustments easier.
Try it with These Canon Cameras. A lens like this has the high resolving power to handle 45 megapixel cameras like the Canon EOS R5 Mark II. It would also pair well as a video lens with the 6K powerhouse Canon EOS R1.
