Best bokeh lens 135mm series#

Overall I've appreciated using this lens as the way it performs helps add something different to my images.

I want to try the Sony 135mm f/1.8 to compare since I've heard the autofocus speed is superb on there and being able to open up to f/1.8 offers more opportunities as far as depth of field is concerned and come back with a side by side analysis. My fav lenses for Bokeh are on the Canon side : the legendary 135mm F/2 and more recently the EF-M 32mm F/1.4.

Sony FE 135mm f/1.8 GM Lens (B&H Amazon Adorama) Sigma 135mm f/1. Welcome to the Canon Lens Wars Bokeh Showdown In this showdown, we took 7 Canon prime lenses from the SLR Lounge Canon Lens Wars series and compared them to each other to see which lens is the ultimate bokeh-licious lens Canon 24mm f/1.4L II. Another thing is that I miss the programable button on some of the SonyвЂ™s lenses that you can program for EyeAF which is super useful for portraits. Anyway, when it comes to bokeh, even if I appreciate NikonвЂ™s efforts on 500mm PF, I donвЂ™t think itвЂ™s the best spec of the lens.

It still tracks fast moving subjects with great accuracy and sharpness, but it wouldnвЂ™t be my first choice to use it if autofocus speed was the highest priority. This lens is nothing short of incredible for portrait sessions, and it creates a soft dreaminess that other lenses just cant replicate. The only downside I've noticed is AF feels a nanosecond slower than my Sony 24-105mm G lens but not by much. At 135mm the lens forces me to move a bit to get the shot if I need something closer to 200mm, or use crop mode if I can't physically get any closer.

I spent the weekend shooting a mix of wider and tighter portrait shots, and it performed great, getting tack sharp shots (thanks in part to the A7 III's EyeAF) with buttery smooth swirling bokeh in the background.
