Resistance to flare is good MTF The MTF reflects the contrast and resolution characteristics of the lens in an integrated manner. Distortion is small in pincushion Chromatic aberrations are high Review: Exceptional value. Highly recommended. Fun lens to use! - The Meike 85mm f/1.8 SE II is an impressive lens that delivers results far beyond its price point. Wide open at f/1.8, it’s already sharp, with excellent subject separation and smooth, dreamy bokeh that gives images a polished, cinematic feel—especially for portraits. I’ve been using this lens adapted to my Canon EOS R5 with the Canon RF adapter, and it performs beautifully. Autofocus has been reliable, and the image quality coming out of the R5 is genuinely impressive. Files hold up extremely well in post, with good contrast and detail that don’t fall apart when you start pushing them. One thing that really stood out to me is how well the images print when enlarged. Details remain crisp, backgrounds stay creamy, and there’s a level of clarity that inspires confidence. I wouldn’t hesitate to deliver large prints from this lens, which says a lot considering its price point. Because of that consistency, this is a lens I’d trust for important moments and paid work. It feels dependable—not just something you pull out to experiment with, but a lens you can rely on when the shots actually matter. If you’re looking to create images that look significantly better than a phone, this is a great example of why investing in good glass matters. The lens is well-built without being heavy, easy to carry, and genuinely fun to shoot with. It encourages creativity while still delivering professional-looking results. Even though it’s an EF mount, it works flawlessly on RF bodies with the Canon adapter. For anyone shooting Canon mirrorless and looking for a low-cost lens that punches way above its weight, the Meike 85mm f/1.8 SE II is an easy recommendation. Exceptional value. Highly recommended. Review: Excellent value, great lens. - For the money it is a great lens. I updated it with newest firmware. Focus is fast, not as fast as a RF lens, but close. It is a heavier lens, not uncomfortable, but there is a noticeable difference. Image qualities is quite good, for the money you can’t beat it. I bought it for the f1.8. Has not disappointed. I am personally using this on an R10. I am using the Canon converter that enables you to use EF lens on an RF body. ## Features - Compatible with: Canon EOS EF Mount Digital SLR Cameras 1D 5D3 5D4 6D 7D 70D 550D 80D, 5D Mark III, 5D Mark IV, EOS-1D X Mark III, EOS-1D X, EOS-1D X Mark II - Advanced Autofocus System: 85mm f1.8 SE II lens features an STM (stepping motor) autofocus mechanism reduce noise that delivers smooth, quiet operation while helping to minimize camera shake during image capture, and the optimal imaging distance: 1.5 to 5 meters, supporting high-resolution 8K capture with zero breathing, zero distortion for professional video work. - The 85mm f1.8 SE II lens for canon EOS EF delivers exceptional optical performance with an aperture range of F1.8～F16 and use of 11 elements in 8 groups,, based on the previous generation, it features upgraded technology, effectively controlling flare and ghosting, excellent purple fringing (almost APO-level), excellent vignetting, and zero distortion - Field of View: Provides full frame coverage with 23.4 degree horizontal, 10.8 degree vertical, and 27.8 degree diagonal viewing angles for precise composition, making it suitable for a wide range of shooting, including selective architecture, landscapes, portrait, short range sports and theatre photography - Firmware Update: If you experience autofocus failure, you can upgrade the firmware online.

It shows f-stops on the camera screen too. But it doesn't show f-stops on Canon 850D. **Q: Is it compatible with a nikon l840? i know i’ll need an adapter.. but i want to make sure it’ll actually fit my camera.** A: WITH THE RIGHT MOUNTING ADAPTER IT WILL WORK, BUT DO NOT BUY THIS LENS.

Personal opinion, not claiming to be the ultimate truth. Advantages ------------- Good sharpness in the center and acceptable at the edges even at the widest aperture. Fast autofocus for photos and quite decent speed for video. The autofocus is almost silent for both photo and video modes (STM motor). Nice bokeh Internal focusing with no moving parts. USB-C port for firmware updates. Feels like a well-made product. Comes with a lens hood. Size, weight (370 g), and, of course, the price of $230. Disadvantages ----------- No weather sealing. Although the minimum focusing distance is stated as 65 cm, the image is terribly blurry at that distance. From approximately 90 cm (I didn't measure precisely), everything is more or less normal. Doesn't handle backlighting very well. It's highly recommended to use the lens hood, but even that doesn't always completely solve the problem. Manual focusing is "by wire," which is quite inconvenient. Not as fast and precise as with mechanical focusing. Overall, I like the lens. I would give it a solid 4 out of 5. P.S. If your lens firmware version is 1.02, be sure to update it on the official Meike website. Version 1.02 does not support IBIS (stab) in mirrorless cameras Canon and has very slow autofocus during video recording. The update solves these problems. ## Frequently Bought Together - Meike 85mm f1.8 Large Aperture Full Frame Auto Focus Telephoto Lens for Canon EOS EF Mount Digital SLR Camera Compatible with APS C Bodies Such as 1D 5D3 5D4 6D 7D 70D 550D 80D - Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens - YONGNUO YN35mm F2 Lens 1:2 AF/MF Wide-Angle Fixed/Prime Auto Focus Lens for Canon EF Mount EOS Camera --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/86677391-meike-85mm-f1-8-se-ii-full-frame-stm-auto](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/86677391-meike-85mm-f1-8-se-ii-full-frame-stm-auto) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
