Chuichi Optical Speedmaster Lens

The Speedmaster 85mm F1.2 is a manual focus lens. You will need to rely on your camera's focus peaking or magnification tools to achieve critical sharpness.

The stepless aperture ring allows for smooth, silent transitions between f-stops while recording. This prevents audible clicking sounds from being picked up by your microphone and ensures seamless exposure adjustments.

Thanks to the inclusion of 2 ED lenses and 4 high-refraction, low-dispersion elements, this lens maintains high contrast and resolution even at F1.2. While the depth of field is extremely shallow, the optical design is specifically engineered to minimize aberrations at its widest aperture.

At 920g, this is a substantial, all-metal lens. While it offers a premium, durable feel, you may find it front-heavy on smaller camera bodies, so it is best paired with a camera that has a deep grip for better balance.

The minimum focusing distance is 1.0 meter. While it is excellent for head-and-shoulder portraits, it is not designed for macro photography or extreme close-ups.

No, the internal focus design ensures the lens does not extend or rotate while focusing. This keeps the physical length consistent at 94mm, which is helpful if you are using a matte box or other lens-mounted accessories.
