Nikon AF-S Nikkor 85mm f/1.8G
Excellent lens Does well in low light conditions. Auto focus doesn't perform well. Switched it to manual focus & it remedied the "problem"
Pros:
- sharp
- excellent in low light
- beautiful bokeh (manual focus

- the auto focus is a bit sluggish

Only for serious photographers!!!
If you are really serious in portrait photography and like to see professional looking results with super smooth bokeh then you would not get any better lens in this price range. This lens offers great sharpness and superior picture quality.

Excellent quality lens
This is an FX lens which works on DX cameras too. It's not heavy but it's solid enough. It's often used as a portrait lens but can be used for whatever you like. The benefit for FX users is the very shallow depth of field and consequent subject isolation hence portraits.

5 Reasons to buy it.
Awesome lens for portrait. 1. 1.8 good for night photography. 2. Fast auto focus. 3. Sharp image. 4. No Image Distortion when shooting in minimum distance when comparing with 35mm OR 50mm. 5. Great Bokeh.

Recommended +++++
Limitless possibilities with this lens. Consistently sharp and colorful images. Ordinarily my favorite portrait lens is the Sigma 50mm 1.4 on the Nikon D610 but, the Nikon 85mm 1.8G often leaves me undecided. /:) You can't go wrong with this one.

This lens blows me away
I was a bit skeptical that I wouldn't use this lens that much given it's focal length. But recent I started doing in studio fashion/beauty shots and I have to say, the images I get with this lens and my D750 are just unbelievably sharp, almost to a fault (not really), but yes, with some people post...

Grey market lens but not listed as such
There was no indication in the listing that this is a grey market lens therefore the warranty would not be serviceable by Nikon Canada.

Nikon 85mm f/1.8G AF-S Nikkor
One of the sharpest prime lenses Nikon has ever produced. Sharp even at f1.8. Very nice bokeh as one would expect. This is a worthy successor to the venerable "D" version of this lens. A new classic 85 portrait lens in F mount.
Pros:
- Image quality and overall sharpness
- wide-open sharpness
- size
- bokeh
- weight
- cost
Cons:
- Build quality could be better
