Norderstedt, June 16, 2025. Rollei, in collaboration with Viltrox, introduces an outstanding addition to the Pro series: the Viltrox AF 85 mm F/1.4 Pro FE for Sony. This high-quality lens has been specially developed for professional photographers and demanding enthusiasts, combining the classic 85-millimeter portrait focal length with state-of-the-art technology and first-class workmanship – ideal for portraits, wedding photography, and creative shots.

The 85-millimeter fixed focal length offers the perfect perspective for natural portraits with soft bokeh and appealing subject isolation. Even with close-ups of details such as hands, food, or floral motifs, the lens impresses with its stunning sharpness. As a lens specially optimized for Sony full-frame cameras, it utilizes the entire sensor performance and provides creative shots with depth and expression.

The fast F/1.4 aperture opens up entirely new creative possibilities and enables shots with breathtaking depth of field. Even in challenging lighting conditions, the lens delivers first-class results without a flash and elegantly separates the main subject from the background. The targeted depth of field control makes it an ideal choice for studio and available light photography.

As part of the Pro series, this lens meets the highest quality standards and delivers exceptional image quality right into the edges, even at open aperture. The elaborately constructed optical system of 15 elements in 11 groups minimizes chromatic aberration, ghosting, and flare for razor-sharp images with high resolution, natural contrast, and vibrant colors.

Equipped with VCM autofocus technology (Voice Coil Motor), the lens focuses lightning-fast and almost silently. The integrated eye detection ensures precise focus on the eyes, even with moving subjects – perfect for portrait and event photography as well as video recordings.

Another advantage is the integrated USB-C port, which makes the lens future-proof. Firmware updates can be conveniently performed to benefit from performance improvements and new functions – without any additional accessories.

The high-quality metal housing reliably protects the lens from shocks, dust, and weather. It not only feels premium in the hand but is also designed for continuous use in professional everyday life – stable, durable, and ready for any photographic adventure.

The Viltrox AF 85 mm F/1.4 Pro FE for Sony is now available for 669 Euros (RRP) in the Rollei online shop at www.rollei.de/viltrox-85mm-pro .
