    Overview

    The Samyang MF 85mm F1.4 RF is a budget-friendly manual-focus lens for Canon RF mount, offering excellent optical quality with pleasing character for portraits. It lacks autofocus and EXIF data transfer, but mirrorless cameras like the EOS R make manual focusing easy via focus peaking and magnification. Build quality is good with metal parts and weather sealing, though the sealing may require a front filter. It suits photographers seeking a lightweight, affordable 85mm f/1.4 with unique rendering, willing to work manually.
