85mm · f/1.8
The Meike AF 85mm f/1.8 Pro offers good build quality with a metal and plastic barrel, smooth focus ring, and a loose, easily knocked aperture ring. Optically, it delivers very good center sharpness wide open, excellent from f/2.8, with good corners by f/4. Vignetting is strong at f/1.8 but corrects by f/5.6; distortion is well-controlled via profile correction. Autofocus is smooth but not suitable for fast action, occasionally hunting. It suits budget-conscious portrait photographers seeking a lightweight, affordable prime, though not for those needing top-tier speed or ruggedness.
