Sony FE 85mm 1.8, FE 100mm 2.8 STF GM OSS lenses and HVL-F45RM Radio Flash are available for Pre-Order. Initial supply of all three items will go to pre-orders, so if you know you want any of them, I strongly urge you to PRE-ORDER NOW!

Sony FE 100mm F2.8 STF GM OSS lens (Order Now for $1498) incorporates an apodization lens element to create exceptionally smooth, rounded bokeh while maintaining tack-sharp focus on the subject. This newly designed element nearly eliminates peripheral highlight distortion from vignetting and works with the 11-blade circular aperture to produce pleasing out-of-focus areas. However, a side effect of the element is a reduction in light transmission, rated here as T5.6 when set to the lens’s maximum f/2.8 aperture. Using a close focus switch on the lens, 1:4 magnification ratio is possible.

Sony’s FE 85mm F1.8 Lens (Order Now for $598) joins the FE 28mm f/2 and FE 50mm f/1.8 in creating a more affordable and accessible system while still providing excellent optical performance. It uses an ED element to reduce aberrations, as well as a nine-blade circular aperture for smooth bokeh. It features a double linear motor system for fast, quiet autofocus. The lens is designed for manual focus, as well, and it has a programmable focus hold button.
