Canon RF 85mm f/1.2L USM Lens – Professional Portrait and Low-Light Prime Lens at MojoComputers
The Canon RF 85mm f/1.2L USM lens available at MojoComputers represents the pinnacle of Canon’s RF mount portrait lenses. Celebrated for its fast f/1.2 maximum aperture, exceptional optical performance, and advanced design elements, this lens is ideal for photographers seeking stunning portraiture, dramatic shallow depth-of-field effects, and superior low-light capability.
Legendary Optical Design with Innovative Elements
This prime lens features a sophisticated optical construction of 13 elements in 9 groups, including innovative Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics (BR) to virtually eliminate chromatic aberrations and color fringing. The BR element is specially designed to refract blue light wavelengths, which commonly cause ghosting and chromatic distortions, resulting in increased sharpness and color fidelity.
Additional optical components include an ultra-low dispersion (UD) element and one aspherical element to further minimize aberrations and distortions, delivering crisp, clear images edge-to-edge. Canon’s Air Sphere Coating (ASC) applied to lens surfaces substantially reduces flare and ghosting, even when shooting in challenging backlit or high-contrast conditions.
Ultra-Bright f/1.2 Aperture for Shallow Depth of Field and Low Light
The remarkable f/1.2 maximum aperture allows photographers extensive control over selective focus, creating stunning subject isolation with creamy, smooth bokeh effects. The large aperture also aids in capturing images in difficult lighting scenarios such as indoor, evening, or natural low-light environments, reducing reliance on higher ISO settings and preserving image quality.
The lens employs a rounded 9-blade diaphragm which produces a beautifully natural bokeh, enriching portraiture and enhancing the natural separation of the subject from the background.
Fast and Quiet Ring-Type Ultrasonic Motor Autofocus
Equipped with a ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM), the RF 85mm f/1.2L lens delivers fast, precise, and nearly silent autofocus performance. Optimized focusing algorithms and a high-speed CPU make autofocus smooth and dependable for both still photography and video recording. Full-time manual focus override allows for fine adjustments without switching modes, ensuring creative control at all times.
Integrated Control Ring for Intuitive Exposure Adjustments
A configurable Control Ring is built into the lens barrel, offering easy access to frequently used settings such as aperture, ISO, shutter speed, or exposure compensation. The tactile, click-enabled dial provides precise, hassle-free control especially useful when shooting through the electronic viewfinder (EVF), without needing to toggle camera dials.
Rugged L-Series Build and Weather Resistance
As a premium member of Canon’s esteemed L-series, this lens is constructed with robust materials designed for extensive professional use. It features a durable, weather-sealed design that protects against dust and moisture, enabling photographers to work confidently in diverse environmental conditions such as rain, dust, or humidity.
The lens weighs approximately 1,195 grams (2.63 lbs) and measures 103.2 mm in diameter by 117.3 mm in length, striking a balance between substantial build quality and manageable handling.
