Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM — a full-frame L-series portrait prime with a blazing f/1.2 aperture, USM autofocus, aspherical optics, and weather-sealed construction.

The **Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM** is the definitive portrait prime in Canon’s prestigious L-series lineup, engineered for full-frame EF-mount DSLRs and fully compatible with APS-C bodies at an equivalent 136mm. Its breathtaking **f/1.2 maximum aperture** delivers unmatched control over depth of field, letting photographers isolate subjects with creamy, dreamy bokeh while excelling in challenging low-light conditions.

Built to the exacting standards of Canon’s professional L-series, this lens combines a **floating optical system** and a single aspherical element for razor-sharp rendering throughout the entire focus range, while a **Super Spectra coating** ensures rich contrast and true-to-life color accuracy even under harsh or contrasty lighting. A ring-type USM drive delivers fast, whisper-quiet autofocus with seamless full-time manual override, making it equally at home in the studio and on location.

### Frequently asked questions

**Is the Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM compatible with Canon APS-C crop-sensor cameras?**
Yes, this lens uses the standard Canon EF mount and is fully compatible with both full-frame and APS-C Canon DSLRs. On an APS-C body, the crop factor gives it an equivalent focal length of approximately 136mm, making it an even longer short-telephoto portrait lens.

**How does the f/1.2 aperture benefit portrait photography?**
The exceptionally bright f/1.2 maximum aperture gives photographers extensive control over depth of field, allowing subjects to be sharply isolated against a beautifully blurred background. It also lets in significantly more light than slower lenses, enabling handheld shooting in low-light environments without resorting to high ISO settings.

**Is the Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM weather-sealed?**
Yes. As a member of Canon's professional L-series, the lens features sealed construction to protect against dust and moisture ingress, making it suitable for use in challenging or inclement environmental conditions.
