Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM
This Canon prime lens – designed for portrait photography – is one of Canon’s more budget friendly high-quality lenses. With a fast f1.8 aperture to counter low-light conditions, it also creates incredible bokeh, separating the subject from the background more effectively than most zoom-lenses. With in-built USM technology, its auto-focus speed and accuracy is quite rapid, allowing the 85mm f1.8 to double as a sports lens.
- Fixed f1.8 aperture – great for low-light shooting.
- Ring-type USM – allowing for fast, accurate auto-focus with minimal noise.
- Amazing depth-of-field – perfect for portraits and sports photography
- 425g – handy to take on-the-go
- Inexpensive, compared to other prime lenses.
