Review: Ottimo
Review: This is a great portrait lens. It IS manual focus - so great for beginners to learn and great little lens for pro’s to use. It’s just a great lens - works as described. Blurs the background. Don’t leave a bad review cause you wanted it to auto focus - it won’t do that. It’s manual and works great!

## Features

- 【Note: Manual Focus/MF】Please note: This is a manual focus lens (no autofocus/no AF/NOT original). You must rotate the focus ring(on the lens) to achieve sharp images. Aperture can only be adjusted via the lens's aperture ring. If needed, consider an autofocus lens instead.
- 【User Instruction】This is a FULL MANUAL lens, NO Electronic Contacts, your camera will not detect the lens when mounted, that's why we can't press the shutter. Tips to use our Manual Lens: Set the mode dial to Manual (M).
- 【Versatile Portrait Lens 85mm】As a portrait lens, the 85mm lens makes it easy to take half- and full-body shots. It can also take close-ups of faces. Ideal for street photography.
- 【Large F1.8 Aperture】The large 1.8 aperture lens delivers fantastic background bokeh. Large aperture with pleasing bokeh to further enhance shallow depth-of-field images.
- 【Compatibility - EF Lens for Canon DSLR Only】85mm F1.8 Manual Portrait EF Lens Compatible for Canon EOS Rebel T8i T7i T7 T6 T6s T6i T3i T2i SL3 SL2 850D 90D 250D 2000D 4000D 200D 9000D 800D 1300D 80D 760D/8000D 750D 1200D 70D 100D 700D 650D 600D 1100D 60D,1DX 5D 6D Mark II/III/IV etc (NOT for EF-M and RF mount lens)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why can't I press the shutter after mounting the lens?**
A: Please switch to mode M, and then you can use our lens.

**Q: Why does my picture out of focus and very blurry?**
A: For manual lenses, you must turn the focus ring on the front of the lens to focus. If the photo is still blurry after focusing sharply, please adjust the exposure by ISO/aperture/shutter speed.

**Q: Why it show "F00"? and How to adjust the aperture value?**
A: Manual lenses do not have an electronic contact, "F00" is displayed because the camera is unable to acquire aperture information. For manual lenses, the aperture value can only be adjusted with the aperture ring on the lens.

**Q: How to do if the image turns out dark?**
A: If the image is too dark, increase the ISO (e.g. from 800 to 1600) to increase the sensitivity, and decrease the shutter speed (e.g. from 1/250s to 1/125s) to allow more light onto the sensor.

**Q: How to do if the image turns out bright?**
A: If the image is too bright, lower the ISO (e.g. from 200 to 100) to reduce the light sensitivity, and increase the shutter speed (e.g. from 1/125s to 1/250s) to reduce the exposure and avoid overexposure.

*by M***U on 28 March 2025*

Sofort wieder zurückgeschickt. Das Objektiv rastete bei meiner Canon RP nicht ein. Wenn man den Blendenring bewegte, konnte man unbeabsichtigt das Objektiv von der Kamera lösen. Außerdem ist die Abbildungsleistung nicht gut, das Objektiv ist zu unscharf. Für das Geld ist es vielleicht OK, aber wer sich eine nicht gerade billige Kamera kauft, sollte dazu passende Objektive verwenden. Dieses paßt nicht zu einer guten Vollformatkamera.
