Sony FE 100mm F2.8 STF GM OSS (SEL100F28GM)

The bokeh from the STF optics is unlike anything I've seen from a regular lens, giving portraits a dreamy, three-dimensional look. I love that it has optical stabilization built in, which really helps when shooting handheld in lower light.

I’ve been using this lens for portrait work, and the STF optics create such a smooth falloff in the background that my subjects just pop out of the frame. The OSS really helps steady my handheld shots too, even at slower shutter speeds.

The way this lens renders out-of-focus backgrounds is unlike anything I've used before—that STF element really makes a difference. I've been shooting flowers with it and the transition from sharp to soft is incredibly smooth.
