AstrHori 85mm f2.8 Macro Tilt for Fuji X-Mount

As a pure macro lens, this lens is suitable for full-frame cameras. With the minimum distance of 11cm from the front lens to the subject (or the closest focusing distance of 25cm), this results in a reproduction scale of 1:1, making it ideal for capturing small animals, plants, jewelry, etc.

For tilting, the lens can be tilted up to ±8 degrees and rotated 360 degrees. Tilting the focal plane opens up new creative possibilities. (Note, however, that the sensor format is limited to APS-C when tilting). The tilt effect gives a kind of "Alice in Wonderland" effect when shooting in the miniature world. Small figures, model cars, miniature landscapes appear really big by tilting the plane of focus. However, the tilt effect is not only interesting in the macro area. By tilting, the sharpness of subjects shot at an angle can be maintained from front to back, even at full aperture.

For example,

a fence or a house, shot at an angle, will be completely sharp, while everything to the side of it disappears in blur.

As an 85mm lens and the angle of view of 28.2 degrees, it is of course also an ideal portrait lens with good sharpness control thanks to the high f2.8 speed. The highest optical quality is ensured by the optical construction of 11 elements in 8 groups, including two ED elements to prevent chromatic aberration.

A

beautiful circular bokeh is provided by the aperture with its 12 blades, which can be adjusted from f/2.8 to f/16.

The lens has a diameter of 63mm, a length of 110mm and weighs 720 grams

.

A 55mm filter thread allows the use of common screw-in filters.

The

adjustment of distance and aperture are manual
