The SLR Magic APO MicroPrime 85mm T2.1 is a professional prime lens designed for those pursuing cinema-grade portrait rendering. With its APO apochromatic design, it effectively suppresses chromatic aberration and purple fringing, delivering clean, detailed images whether you shoot in 4K or even higher resolutions. Its color is predominantly neutral with a slight warmth, rendering skin tones naturally and attractively without excessive beautification or color cast, giving you maximum flexibility in post-production while still producing very pleasing images straight out of the camera.
The fast T2.1 aperture delivers an alluring shallow depth of field: subjects in focus appear sharp and clear, while the background blur is smooth and gentle, with round, calm bokeh. This makes it ideal for portraits, interviews, and emotionally driven scenes. The lens’s overall contrast and micro-contrast are well controlled, giving the image depth without appearing overly harsh, and creating a refined, understated cinematic style. Whether you’re shooting commercials, portrait shorts, music videos, or documentary-style storytelling, the SLR Magic APO MicroPrime 85mm T2.1 can serve as one of your core lenses for building a distinctive visual “brand style,” with reliable image quality, natural color, and a richly textured look.

● Like New – Nearly new or unused products that cannot be sold as “brand new” only because the packaging has been opened or the item has been used for brief demo shooting. Both appearance and functionality are very close to new.
● DEMO – Sample lenses used only for display, test shooting, or event demonstrations. They may show normal signs of use, such as slight wear on rings or minor scuffs on the barrel, but functionality and image quality remain fully normal.
● Grade 9 – Excellent condition and very clean overall, with only minimal signs of use, such as small scuffs, light paint wear, or very slight marks on the lens glass and a few visible dust particles. These do not affect typical shooting.
● Grade 8 – Noticeable cosmetic wear or scuffs on the exterior. The lens glass may show light to moderate scratches or cleaning marks, and some clearly visible dust in certain areas, but overall functionality and basic imaging performance remain usable.
● Grade 7 – Clearly visible signs of heavy use. The barrel may have larger dings, paint loss, or deeper scratches, and the lens glass may show obvious scratches and more noticeable dust. Basic functions have been confirmed to work properly.
