Meike has released a new autofocus lens called Meike 85mm F1.4. This full-frame lens supports Sony E and Nikon Z bayonet mounts, ideal for portrait photography and video.
Meike 85mm F1.4 features an STM stepper autofocus drive for silent and smooth focusing. This capability makes it an excellent choice for video recording, ensuring no unwanted noise is captured by the directional microphone.
This lens’s electronic aperture control and aperture control ring for manual adjustment enable versatile settings for the user. The lens utilizes multi-layer coating technology on both sides to enhance color accuracy and realism. The lens is also easy to clean, and dust or stains do not easily attach to it.
