Product Overview

Samyang XP 85mm F1.2 is a large-aperture manual-focus short telephoto prime lens for Canon EF-mount and Nikon F-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Samyang in 2016, it has 10 elements in 7 groups.
Manual focus may be limiting to some, but purists will find it much more engaging. There are also fewer things to go wrong on the long run. Unfortunately, Samyang has opted to omit weather sealing for this lens, so owners should pay extra attention when shooting in incremental weathers.
A telephoto prime lens, the Samyang XP 85mm F1.2 is well suited for portrait photography.
