It present several features that punch well above its class while still maintaining a small and lightweight profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eThe bright f\/1.4 maximum aperture pairs with a nine-blade diaphragm to benefit selective focus and shallow depth of field imaging with smooth bokeh, making it an ideal lens for portraiture. An Ultra Multi Coating has been applied to lens elements to reduce flare and ghosting for higher contrast and colour fidelity. The optical design incorporates three High Refractive, one Extra Low Dispersion, and two Aspherical elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eTo compliment the imaging capabilities, the lens sports a customizable focus ring that can be changed to perform other functions through convenient switch located on the barrel. A Linear STM autofocus motor is used to produce quick, smooth, and quiet performance with full-time manual focus override, and a non-rotating filter, along with features like Internal AF and reduced focus breathing make it an optimal lens for video.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eKey Features of the Samyang 50mm f\/1.4 UMC II MK2 AF Lens - Sony FE Mount\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE-Mount Lens\/Full-Frame Format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustomizable Control\/Focus Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutofocus with Manual Override\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 HR, 1 ED, 2 ASP Elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinear STM Motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUMC, ED, HR Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9-Blade Diaphragm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11 Elements in 8 Groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gText\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eExcellent Resolution in All Areas of the Image\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimum resolution is achieved through the 6 special glasses(2 U-ASP, 3 HR, and 1 ED) among the optical design of 11 elements in 8 groups.

It effectively separates the subject from the background, using a shallow depth of field and adding drama to the scene. Also, it is equipped with UA(Ultra-precision Aspherical) lenses, so you can enjoy the natural and refined bokeh. Using this smooth bokeh, you can freely create photos highlighting your subject!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eAdvanced Fast and Quiet AF for Stills and Movies\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracking the subject accurately and quickly, the AF also operates quietly and smoothly when shooting video.
