## Features

- 【Usage Instructions】This is a fully manual lens with no electronic contacts. Camera not firing when the lens on? This is normal. "No communication" is not a malfunction. When using this lens on Canon RF-mount mirrorless camera, you must shoot in Manual (M) mode and enable "Release shutter w/o Lens" in the camera menu. (This setting is required for all manual lenses.)
- 【Note: Manual Focus (MF)】Please note: This is a manual focus lens (no autofocus AF/no image stabilization). You must focus by rotating the focus ring on the lens. If you do not manually focus, the image will be completely blurred (out of focus). If you are uncomfortable with manual operation, please choose an autofocus lens.
- 【Versatile Portrait Lens 85mm F1.8】As a portrait lens, the 85mm focal length is ideal for shooting half-body and full-body portraits. It can also capture facial close-ups and is suitable for street photography. The large F1.8 aperture delivers excellent background blur (bokeh). The wide aperture combined with beautiful bokeh enhances the visual impact of shallow-depth-of-field images.
- 【Manual Focus & Aperture Ring Adjustment】Rotate the focus ring manually to achieve focus. The aperture value cannot be set via the camera, so "F00" will be displayed. To adjust the aperture, manually rotate the aperture ring on the lens. Additionally, you must manually adjust exposure settings (shutter speed and ISO) according to the shooting environment to capture clear images; otherwise, photos may appear too dark or too white.
- 【Compatible Only with Canon R Series - RF Mount】The 85mm F1.8 manual portrait lens is only compatible with Canon EOS R, Ra, RP, R3, R5, R5 C, R6, R6 Mark II, R7, R8, R10, R50, and R100 mirrorless cameras (not compatible with M-series EF-M mount mirrorless cameras & EF/EF-S mount DSLRs).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value for the price!
*by R***R on December 24, 2025*

Very good aftermarket prime lens. Sharp and build quality is acceptable.

### ⭐ Unreliable for Photography
*by C***N on October 24, 2025*

Lens fit my Canon EOS R100 so this lens does fit R series cameras unlike what other reviews may say. However, the lens kept being out of focus and applying a soft effect even when manually adjusted. Found it unusable for photography and returned it.
