85mm performs just like the other Veydras, so much so it’s downright boring. And that’s a good thing.

The lens captures a crisp, contrasty image with no noticeable lateral chromatic aberration. The image is flat as a pancake: I couldn’t see any distortion at all, not so much as a single pixel’s deviation in a straight line running along the edge of the picture.

The sweet spot for the 85mm is from T2.8 to T5.6, where its images are razor-sharp. At T2.2 the image is softer, if only slightly; as you close it down to T8 and below diffraction takes its toll.

as a leading small manufacturer of things people need, we sometimes get the trend too early. We jumped on one such early trend with the 4K anamorphic shooting modes found in cameras like the Panasonic GH4 when we announced the Veydra 2X Mini Anamorphic Project last spring at NAB Show 2015. We did in fact spend a fair amount of money and months of design and prototype efforts in 2015 on the 2X Mini Anamorphic. We found that our high quality standards and risk of manufacturing this specialty lens would cause many problems in delivering the best quality product. We therefore announce that we have discontinued the 2X Mini Anamorphic project.
