Zhongyi Mitakon Speedmaster 85mm f/1.2 Lens
The Zhongyi Mitakon Speedmaster 85mm f/1.2 is a high‑performance, fixed‑focal‑length lens designed exclusively for Sony’s A‑mount mirrorless cameras. With its impressive optical design and robust build quality, this lens delivers exceptional image quality while maintaining a compact and lightweight form factor.
Optical Performance
The Speedmaster 85mm f/1.2 features an advanced 9‑group, 6‑element (9/6) optical construction, engineered to minimize chromatic aberration, distortion, and spherical aberrations across the APS‑C and full‑frame sensor formats. The lens employs high‑index glass elements that provide a sharp, contrast‑rich image even at the maximum aperture of f/1.2. Its 11‑blade diaphragm produces smooth, pleasing bokeh, ideal for portraiture and low‑light photography.
Build & Design
The lens is constructed from durable metal, giving it a solid feel while keeping the overall weight manageable. The body measures 9.6 cm in diameter (approximately 3.78 inches) and has a length of 8.3 cm (about 3.27 inches). Its compact size, combined with a lightweight design, makes it an excellent choice for on‑the‑go shooting without sacrificing performance.
Focusing & Aperture Control
The Speedmaster employs manual focus operation, allowing photographers to maintain full creative control over the focusing point. The focus ring is smooth and precise, enabling fine adjustments in close‑up situations. The maximum aperture of f/1.2 offers exceptional low‑light capability and a shallow depth of field, while the minimum aperture of f/16 provides flexibility for longer exposures or greater depth of field when needed.
Compatibility & Mount
This lens is specifically designed for Sony’s A‑mount system, ensuring seamless integration with a wide range of Sony mirrorless cameras. The mount interface is fully compatible with both APS‑C and full‑frame sensor formats, allowing photographers to use the same lens across multiple camera bodies without loss of performance.
Filter Size & Accessories
The Speedmaster accepts a standard 77 mm filter size, which is widely available and compatible with most filter accessories. This makes it easy to add polarizers, neutral density filters, or other specialty lenses without the need for adapters.
