Well-suited for portraiture, the YN 85mm f/1.8 Lens from Yongnuo is a
short-telephoto prime designed for Canon EF-mount DSLRs. Pairing well
with the slightly long focal length is a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture
that benefits working in low-light as well as affords greater control
over depth of field for selective focus control. An AF/MF switch on the
lens barrel permits quick switching between focusing methods, and the
lens can focus as closely as 2.8' to suit photographing close-up
subjects. Additionally, gold-plated contacts permit working with all
exposure modes as well as transferring lens information to the EXIF
data.
Ideal portrait-length prime is designed for full-frame format Canon
EF-mount DSLRs, however this lens can also be used with APS-C-format
models where it will provide a 136mm equivalent focal length.
Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture offers increased control over depth of
field and also benefits working in a variety of lighting conditions.
An AF/MF switch on the lens barrel allows you to select focusing
methods, with either setting allowing you to focus as closely as 2.8'
away.
Gold-plated electronic contacts convey Exif data between camera and lens and also permit working M, Av, Tv, and P shooting modes.
