The original Sony FE 85mm F1.4 G Master lens was so good it was pretty hard to fault; but it was launched back in 2016, and a lot has happened in lens design since then. As a result, the new Sony FE 85mm F1.4 GM II is a long way from just a simple makeover. It has more advanced optics, improved autofocus performance, better aberration control and, to cap it all off, it’s both slimmer and 20% lighter than the old lens. It does cost more than the original, though, and the difference will depend on where you are. Optically, physically and operationally, though, the Sony FE 85mm F1.4 GM II is simply spectacular.
Reasons to buy
- + Edge-to-edge sharpness at any aperture – amazing
- + Smaller, lighter and better than the original
- + De-clickable aperture ring and two Fn buttons
- + Fast, highly responsive and silent AF
Reasons to avoid
- - Smaller than its predecessor but still a big lens
- - F1.4 not F1.2, which is slightly disappointing
- - Focus breathing is suppressed but still there
- - Some cats-eye bokeh wide open
