The lens is characterized by its bright f\/1.4 maximum aperture, which suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers improved control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus techniques. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe optical design utilizes two aspherical elements and one SLD element, which help to reduce both spherical and chromatic aberrations for greater sharpness and clarity. A Super Multi-Layer Coating has also been applied to suppress flare and ghosting in order to achieve more contrast and colour accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions. Complementing the optics is a stepping AF motor, which suits both photo and video applications due to its quick, precise, and near-silent performance.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionHeaders js-hiddenFeatures\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePortrait-length prime is designed for APS-C-format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras and provides an 84mm equivalent focal length.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBright f\/1.4 maximum aperture excels in low-light conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field for achieving selective focus effects.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne SLD glass element reduces colour fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to achieve greater clarity and colour accuracy.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo aspherical elements control distortion and spherical aberrations, which provides greater sharpness and more accurate rendering.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eA Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and colour-neutral imagery, even in backlit conditions.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA stepping AF motor benefits both photographers and videographers with its fast, precise, and near-silent performance.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe bayonet mount is constructed from brass for ensured accuracy and durability.
