"Balances wonderfully with a D600. Bokeh is excellent for portraits, flowers, etc. However, I prefer the more versatile and extremely sharp 24-70 2.8 for landscape and street photography.

The 85 1.4g is an amazing lens, has all the features you want, none of the features you don't need. Perfect Bokeh, probably one of the 3 best portrait lenses you can get for the nik. One shortcoming is that it just feels sorta plastic, but what doesn't these days...
Amazing bokeh; Consistent Output; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Lightweight; Nice Bokeh
Feels Cheep; One Trick Pony
Great professional level lens. Makes unbelievable portrait pictures.
Excellent pictures
Nothing
This might be the highest quality optics for an 85mm lens available. It's as sharp as sharp gets wide open and edge to edge. If this sombrero effect is visible, it is not by these eyes nor any other reviewer. This optic is best of class and worth the price for someone who wants the very best.
Very sharp; beautiful micro contrast; magnesium internal parts; external polycarbonate; Nano coating
Would prefer an aperture ring
This lens would have been 5 stars, but Nikon had to make a 1.8 version that is 95% of this lens, and 1/3 the cost. So It get's -1 for the cost to performance ratio. For the masses the 1.8 is a steal for the must have the best there is no 1.4 better.
Amazing Bokeh; Durable; Easy To Use; Reliable; Sharp
Pricey
This is a great lens with fantastic bokeh qualities. I use it with my D4 and am able to achieve desired results with great consistency.
There is nothing bad to say about. If there is a weakness it could be its relative lack of sharpness at 1.4 in the center COMPARED to the sigma and the canon. This is mostly because of CA's, once removed in post processing you almost wouldn't see the difference honnestly.
contrasty; razor sharp; very fast AF considering the kind of lens
expensive; not 1.2 :p
Image quality from this lens is excellent throughout. At 1.4 it can be a little soft but that's to be expected. Skin tones are fantastic and very flattering due to the slightly warm tint it produces. The AF is very accurate and consistent although not particularly fast.
Bokeh; Great Picture Quality; Skin Tones
Pros: Reliable, Lightweight, Durable, Easy To Use Cons: Other thoughts: Great lens, love it.
This AF-S Nikkor 85mm f/1.4 lens is Superb in Every way, Excellent in Low Light situation. Quality is solid and found the Focus Quick and Accurate. A much for taking Potraits. The Sharpness and bokeh are Obsolutely incredible Razar Sharp. Excellent piece of lens to Own.
