Meike’s new AF85mm F1.4 II second-generation full-frame autofocus lens is set to be released in 2026, featuring Sony E, Nikon Z, and L mounts. It will be showcased during CP+ at the end of February. The lens boasts a new design, significantly reducing weight compared to the first generation, with a body size similar to the Sigma 85mm F1.4 lens. The image quality has been enhanced, eliminating color tint and yellowing issues. The company’s internal goal is to position it as the best 85mm F1.4 lens made in China. –
