The details
At a glance: Neewer 85mm f/1.8 - manual-focus portrait prime for Canon EF full-frame and APS-C.
About this lens
The Neewer 85mm f/1.8 Portrait Lens is a manual-focus third-party portrait prime for Canon EF bodies. A low-cost 85mm f/1.8 option - offers classic short-telephoto portrait focal length and aperture without Canon's native price tag. Manual focus only.
Build & handling
| Autofocus | Manual focus only |
|---|---|
| Image stabilisation | No |
| Filter thread | Typically 72mm (check individual unit) |
| Weight | Approx. 500g |
| Construction | Metal barrel, multi-coated glass |
Works with
- Canon EF-mount full-frame DSLRs (5D series, 6D, 1D series)
- Canon EF-mount APS-C DSLRs (acts as ~127mm equivalent)
- Canon RF mirrorless via EF-EOS R adapter (manual focus retained)
Best for
A budget third-party 85mm portrait prime. Gives you the classic 85mm short-telephoto look and f/1.8 subject separation at a fraction of the cost of Canon's native 85mm f/1.8 USM or f/1.4L - but manual focus only, so it's best suited to deliberate portrait and product work rather than fast-moving subjects.
Frequently asked questions
Does it autofocus?
No. This is a manual-focus lens. In-body AF confirmation via focus-assist may work on some Canon EOS bodies with chipped EF adapters, but there's no autofocus motor or electronics.
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
No — this lens does not have image stabilisation.
Will it work on Canon RF mirrorless bodies?
Yes, via the Canon EF-EOS R adapter. Autofocus and IS are preserved, and the lens functions normally on R, R5, R6, R7, R8, R50 and other RF bodies.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
