Nikon AF-S 85mm F1.8G Lens 85MM F1.8G LENS review
Nikon has produced an excellent update to the long-lived 85mm ƒ/1.8D: while autofocus performance isn't quite as fast in the 85mm ƒ/1.8G, the majority of photographers using this lens probably won't be using it in applications that demand superfast focusing, anyway.

Nikkor AF-S 85mm f/1.8G
The Nikkor AF-S 85mm f/1.8G is a short telephoto lens announced January 2012. It's the long-awaited successor of the Nikkor AF 85mm f1.8D from 1994 and the considerably more affordable sibling of the AF-S 85mm f1.4G from August 2010 - see my

Traditionally, in 35mm-format (i.e. Nikon FX) photography, along with 105mm, the 85mm focal length is considered to be ideal for portrait photography. Perhaps 105mm is better for "head and shoulder" type images while the 85mm can cover a bit more.

Nikon 85mm f/1.8G AF-S Nikkor review by Prime Minister
I've always been a huge fan of the older AF-D model, but it was only really usable from f/2.8. What a nice surprise this new AF-S version is! More then adequate sharpness and contrast n the center of the frame at f/1.8 and at smaller apertures it only gets better.
Pros:
- Sharpness
- contrast
- bokeh
- price
- silent
Cons:
- None

This is my favorite lens on the D800. (I've never tried the 85/1.4G, though) The handling, weight and "feel" to this combination simply makes shooting a pure pleasure, and it provides fantastic IQ! A great-value nobrainer. Love it!
Pros:
- Awesome lens for flattering portraits and great for landscapes too
- Sharpness is excellent, clearly better than the old 1.8D-version in the open end
- Pleasant bokeh, contrast and colours
- Only 350g and a delight to handle
Cons:
- I'd liked it to have 9 blades of course
- but 7 rounded is ok
