JINTU 85mm
The 85mm f/1.8 prime combines a bright aperture with a short-telephoto perspective that flattens and flatters portrait subjects. Fast, near-silent USM autofocus and a light 490g body make extended handheld sessions comfortable. This lens suits budget-minded portrait shooters who want shallow depth of field and natural subject isolation in a compact package.
