Pairing a cherished short-telephoto focal length with an exceptionally bright maximum aperture, the Canon RF 85mm f/1.2L USM
is also characterized by its advanced optical design to produce
well-corrected imagery. The fast f/1.2 design excels in difficult
lighting conditions and also benefits working with shallow depth of
field and selective focus techniques. The optical layout incorporates a
Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics element; a specially developed element
that helps to nearly eliminate chromatic aberrations and color fringing
for notable clarity and color accuracy. In addition to this, an
ultra-low dispersion element and one aspherical element are also
featured to further control various aberrations and distortion for great
sharpness and resolution. Individual elements also feature an Air
Sphere Coating to suppress flare and ghosting for high contrast and
color fidelity when working in bright and backlit conditions.
Complementing the imaging capabilities is an apt ring-type Ultrasonic
Motor, which delivers fast, near-silent autofocus and full-time manual
focus override. A unique Control Ring is also integrated into the lens
design for intuitive control over exposure settings from the lens
itself.
