Key Features:
- Wide f/1.4 Maximum Aperture
- The f/1.4 maximum aperture allows for exceptional low-light performance, enabling faster shutter speeds and greater flexibility in dimly lit environments.
- The large aperture provides a shallow depth of field, making it ideal for portraiture, allowing for stunning subject isolation and a smooth, creamy bokeh effect in the background.
- ED (Extra-low Dispersion) Glass Elements
- The lens features Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements that significantly reduce chromatic aberration and color fringing, ensuring sharp, high-contrast images with minimal color distortions, even in challenging lighting.
- These elements enhance image quality by maintaining color fidelity and delivering crisp details across the frame.
- Superior Image Quality
- The optical design of the lens ensures exceptional sharpness, even when used wide open at f/1.4. This results in high-resolution images with fine detail and minimal optical distortions.
- The lens delivers excellent contrast and color accuracy, making it ideal for both portraits and fine-art photography.
- Beautiful Bokeh and Background Blur
- With its wide aperture and advanced lens construction, the 105mm f/1.4E is known for its beautiful, creamy bokeh that gives portraits and other subject-focused images a soft and pleasing background blur.
- The rounded aperture blades contribute to the smoothness of the bokeh, ensuring that out-of-focus areas are aesthetically pleasing.
- Fast and Accurate Autofocus
- The lens is equipped with an internal focusing system that ensures fast and accurate autofocus, which is ideal for both stills and video applications.
- The Silent Wave Motor (SWM) ensures quiet, smooth autofocus operation, which is particularly useful for capturing fast-moving subjects or for video recording, where noise can be a concern.
- High Build Quality
- Built with a durable metal body, the lens is designed to withstand heavy use in the field, offering a professional-grade build that feels solid and reliable.
- It has a weather-sealed construction, making it resistant to dust and moisture, allowing photographers to work in a variety of environmental conditions.
- Telephoto Focal Length (105mm)
- The 105mm focal length is ideal for portrait photography, providing a flattering perspective that creates beautiful compression and subject isolation. It allows for a comfortable working distance between the photographer and subject.
- It’s also great for close-up photography and macro-style shots, where the longer focal length helps maintain a bit of distance from the subject while still achieving sharp, detailed results.
- Nano Crystal Coat
- The lens features a Nano Crystal Coat, which helps reduce ghosting and flare, especially when shooting in backlit or high-contrast scenes. This results in clearer, more contrast-rich images, even in difficult lighting situations.
- Minimum Focusing Distance of 1 Meter
- The lens has a minimum focusing distance of 1 meter (3.3 feet), allowing photographers to get closer to their subjects for detailed portrait shots while maintaining sharp focus.
- 9-Blade Rounded Aperture
- The 9-blade rounded aperture helps produce a smooth, circular bokeh, contributing to a more natural-looking out-of-focus background in portrait and artistic photography.
