World’s first Meike 85mm f/1.8 FE AF lens review by SonyAlphaBlog: “very good for the price”
The new lens is available at BHphoto, Amazon, Amazon DE, Amazon UK.
SonyAlphaBlog tested the new Meike 85mm f/1.8 FE AF lens and concluded:
The Meike 85mm F1.8 STM (200$) is a very good for the price. It provides very good results overall for portraits with very good sharpness in the centre ,very nice bokeh balls , color rendering and soft background blur. AF is good (80-90% accuracy)
Of course it will be more at ease on 24Mpix than on 61Mpix in term of sharpness
Some tradeoffs have been made. : full plastic body, AF that could be a little bit better (this should be possible with firmware upgrade), important vignetting, some CA and average resistance to flare, some loss of contrast with incident light, sharpness in the corners pretty average
Video rendering is also very good
Recommended on A7II / III for small budget

Sigma 90 mm F2.8 DG DN tested at DxO: “looks like a super-compelling option”
DxO conclusion is:
Not everyone wants large and heavy high-speed lenses, so there’s clearly an opportunity for compact high-quality primes. With such strong contenders in Sony’s lineup at this focal length, though, it is perhaps no surprise to see Sigma offering something a little different with the Sigma 90 mm F2.8 DG DN | Contemporary lens. Despite some slight shortcomings, many of which can be overcome with software correction, image quality is very good overall. What’s more, if portraiture is your thing, thanks to its small size, great build, and relatively affordable pricing, the Sigma 90 mm F2.8 DG DN | Contemporary looks like a super-compelling option.
