Ett av de mest prisvärda porträttobjektiv man kan få tag i om man använder Nikon. Fungerar både till DX och FX kameror. Saknar AF-S motor vilket innebär att kameran måste ha en inbyggd AF-motor för att autofokusen skall fungera. Mycket bra bildkvalitet till ett förhållandevis lågt pris.

Mycket bra skärpa, förhållandevis låg kromatisk aberration och nästintill obefintlig distorsion; I ett riktigt fotografi ser man ingen distorsion alls; Snygg bakgrundsoskärpa "bokeh"; Stadigt byggt objektiv, ger intryck av att vara nästan lika välbyggt som de tidigare manuella gluggarna från nikon.

Ingen AF-S motor = långsam AF (Även om den är snabb för att vara ett icke AF-S objektiv) ganska högljudd när man använder autofokus; Inte lika bra bildkvalitet när man använder vidöppen bländare som den manuella versionen, men från ungefär f/2.8 och uppåt är den minst lika bra om inte bättre

Lens balances well on camera body,does great job of blurring background(great for portraits)and is tack sharp. Color,resolution, and detail are excellent with this lens. You can use it as a portrait lens,moderate telephoto lens and is great in available light.

One stellar fact about this lens is that it's T-stop value is t/1.8. Due to the phenomenal optical design correcting aberrations with a mathematically optimal number of elements via a fast rear-focusing breakthrough, this lens is within 1/3rd of a stop as bright compared to both of the Nikon f/1.4...

I have a couple of zooms that cover this range but I wanted a prime for people and pet photos. This lens fills the bill with more speed and IQ than the zooms and is compact in size.

Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight; Made in Japan; Nice Bokeh; Strong Construction

This lens takes an impressive image for not much $. Is only 1/2 stop slower than the 1.4D for less than 1/2 the bux. For my glamour portraiture usage, I have some sample images by this lens and a comparison to several of its peers avail in a more detailed review @...

Nikon offers the 85mm f/1.4 D AF (£897) and the newer 85mm f/1.4 G AF-S. The 85mm f/1.8D AF was launched in ‘94 and its design does look older than its rivals. Designed for Nikon D-SLRs that use the FX mount, it's also compatible with DX cameras such as the D7000 and offers an equivalent of 127.5mm...

This is certainly a fantastic write-up.

This compact, affordable 85mm prime lens is an excellent choice for portrait photography and HD video recording; Its fast f/1.8 maximum aperture with manual control offers outstanding low-light performance, natural background blur and smooth aperture adjustments during Live View shooting.
