Samyang's updated manual 85mm — the MK2 version with improved focus ring for Canon EF.

The Samyang MF 85mm f/1.4 MK2 is the second-generation manual-focus portrait prime from Samyang for Canon EF mount, addressing optical weaknesses identified in the original 85mm f/1.4 design. The MK2 revision features an updated optical formula with improved contrast, reduced flare, and better bokeh rendering.

The lens delivers 85mm at f/1.4 maximum aperture in a fully manual focus configuration, with the MK2 optical design offering improved performance compared to the original version. Full-frame coverage and standard 77mm filter thread. No electronic contacts are present, so no EXIF data is recorded.

The MK2 update specifically targets the flare susceptibility and lower contrast wide open that characterised the original Samyang 85mm f/1.4, making it a more versatile portrait lens in challenging lighting. At its used price point it remains a compelling budget alternative to Canon's EF 85mm f/1.4L IS for studio and portrait photographers who can work with manual focus.

Test focus ring smoothness across the full range from minimum focus to infinity. Check aperture blade condition and operation at various stops. Verify front element for coating damage or cleaning abrasion, as the large front element is vulnerable. Confirm infinity focus accuracy by testing against a distant subject.
