ZEISS – Loxia 85mm f/2.4 – Sony FE Mount
A compact short telephoto prime for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, the ZEISS – Loxia 85mm f/2.4 – Sony FE Mount is an ideal portrait-length lens characterized by its sleek form factor and impressive optical qualities. Utilizing an optimized Sonnar concept, the simple seven elements, seven groups design incorporates three anomalous partial dispersion elements to greatly reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for notable clarity and colour accuracy. Additionally, a Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating has also been applied to the individual lens elements to control lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast when working in strong lighting conditions.
Loxia lenses are distinct in that they feature a manual focus design that has been specifically tailored for use with electronic viewfinders, and also feature a manual aperture ring that can be de-clicked for silent operation; making them especially well-suited to filmmaking applications. The all-metal lens barrel incorporates engraved focusing and depth of field scales, and a 220° focus throw offers fine-tuned control over focusing position as close as 2.6′ away. Additionally, a weather-resistant gasket is featured at the lens mount to protect the lens-camera interface from dust and moisture.

Prime portrait-length lens
The prime portrait-length lens is designed specifically for full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras, however, can also be used on APS-C models where it will provide a 127.5mm equivalent focal length
Lens mount is fitted with an electronic interface
The lens mount is fitted with an electronic interface that conveys all lens EXIF data to the camera and can also be configured to automatically activate the camera’s focusing magnification function when turning the focus ring
f/2.4 maximum aperture
An f/2.4 maximum aperture permits working in low-light conditions offers control over depth of field, and also helps to maintain the compact overall form factor of the lens
Based on the Sonnar optical concept
Based on the Sonnar optical concept, this lens incorporates three anomalous partial dispersion elements to greatly reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for increased clarity and colour neutrality
Zeiss T* anti-reflective coatings
Zeiss T* anti-reflective coatings have been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections in order to provide greater image clarity, contrast and colour fidelity
Manual aperture ring
The manual aperture ring can be mechanically ‘de-clicked’ for smooth, silent rotation throughout the aperture range; making it ideal for video applications
All-metal lens barrel
An all-metal lens barrel is fitted with a weather-resistant gasket at the lens mount to protect against moisture and dust from reaching the image sensor or rear lens element
Manual focus design
Manual focus design is accentuated by a knurled metal focusing ring, 220° focus ring rotational angle, and engraved depth of field and distance scale markings
