Samyang has announced the AF 135mm f/1.8 FE, a fast 135mm autofocus lens for Sony cameras. The lens promises high resolution, beautiful bokeh and powerful autofocus.

In 2015, Samyang released a fast 135mm lens. This lens only had manual focus, but was nevertheless a popular lens, particularly for portrait photography. Samyang has now released an AF version, which makes it easier to use.

The lens has a focus lock button, a custom switch and a limiter for the AF range, allowing the autofocus speed to be made as fast as possible.

The maximum aperture of f/1.8 gives a very shallow depth of field, which in combination with the ultra-precision aspherical lens elements produces refined bokeh.

The custom switch can be set so that the aperture can be changed steplessly and silently using the focus ring. This makes the lens very suitable for filming.

The custom button can be expanded with functions in the future through firmware updates. You need the optional Samyang Lens Station to programme the buttons.

The Samyang AF 135mm f/1.8 FE lens is only available for Sony E-mount. The lens will be available from February 2022 at a recommended retail price of 949.99 euros.
