<p>The Sigma Cine Classic 85mm T2.5 is a portrait-oriented prime that emphasizes subject isolation and emotional presence with a nostalgic, film-like character. Built on a fast f/1.4 optical foundation, it maintains the ability to produce shallow depth of field even though its measured transmission is T2.5. The selective Classic coating introduces gentle contrast falloff, highlight bloom, and expressive flare behavior, giving close-ups a warm, intimate, and atmospheric quality.</p>
<p>The 85mm is well-suited for character close-ups, interviews, and dramatic storytelling where emotional tone is central. Mechanically, the lens aligns with the Sigma Cine standard: 95 mm front diameter, matched gear placement across focal lengths, and a 180° focus rotation for controlled, repeatable focus pulling. Available exclusively in ARRI PL mount with metadata support, the 85mm T2.5 Classic brings a timeless, expressive portrait look to modern productions.</p>
