New from Samyang: AF 16mm F2.8 P FE and AF 85mm F1.8 P FE – Lightweight Power for Creative Minds
Samyang has just added two exciting lenses to its Prima Series – the AF 16mm F2.8 P FE and AF 85mm F1.8 P FE – designed to be your “first lens” and the one you’ll reach for every time. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced content creator, these lenses are made to deliver high image quality, portability, and simplicity – the essentials you need for everyday photography.
AF 16mm F2.8 P FE – Wide-Angle Power in a Pocket-Sized Body
Weighing only 207g, the AF 16mm F2.8 P FE is impressively compact and perfectly suited for landscape, travel, and street photography. With a minimum focusing distance of just 12cm, you can capture wide-angle shots with dramatic depth and detail, even from up close.
The F2.8 aperture and ultra-wide 16mm field of view make it easy to include immersive backgrounds and tell a visual story with every shot. When paired with an APS-C camera, it offers an effective focal length of approximately 24mm and up to 0.5x magnification, ideal for close-ups, textures, and environmental storytelling.
AF 85mm F1.8 P FE – Lightweight Portrait Perfection
At just 272g, the AF 85mm F1.8 P FE is the lightest lens in its class* among 85mm F1.8 primes for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras. Designed for effortless portraiture, this lens helps you capture natural expressions and beautiful bokeh — all without weighing down your gear bag.
Its advanced optical design includes three ED elements, providing excellent sharpness and control over chromatic aberrations. The result? Clean, detailed portraits with perfectly rendered skin texture, lashes, and eyes — especially at portrait-friendly distances between 2 and 3 meters.
The fast F1.8 aperture creates a creamy, shallow depth of field that softly separates your subject from the background, while the 9-blade rounded diaphragm delivers smooth, circular bokeh — perfect for artistic and emotional portraits.
