The Sony 85mm f/1.4 GM II lens has been reviewed, with some outlets considering it a top choice for portrait photography. However, other lenses, such as the 85mm f/1.8 and the Viltrox 85mm f/2 EVO, are also being discussed as potentially better options for certain types of photographers. The Sony lens is noted for its faster autofocus and improved characteristics, but its suitability for different users and applications is being debated.
