Half the Price and Twice as Nice?? Sirui Aurora 85mm 1.4 Review (vs Sony 85 1.4 GM)

Sirui is now well established in the cinema and videography lens space. But with a huge lineup of manual focus lenses under their belts, they've recently branched out into autofocus lenses! Arguably the most signifiant being the new Aurora 85 f/1.4 lens for Sony e-mount and Nikon Z-mount. But how does it hold up in an increasingly crowded Sony e-mount market? We'll specifically compare it with the originally Sony 85GM, which still sells for twice as much brand new.
