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.

I am a professional photographer. I do fine art reproductions. I have been using the 105mm lens for years and I recently upgraded to the 85mm lens in anticipation of using a D850. I have been using a D810. I do not want to move the camera further back with the D850. This lens takes beautiful photos.

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

Excellent lens on the D3, portraits, night/indoor photography. Love the way I can isolate the subject.

Consistent Output; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Nice Bokeh

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.

Pros: Reliable, Lightweight, Durable, Easy To Use Cons: Other thoughts: Great lens, love it.

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

Love it

Wow! 85mm f/1.4 takes photography to the next level.

Easy to use

There is no way of avoiding the fact that, at £1,500, this is a very expensive lens. Readers with smaller budgets may prefer to consider the £900 previous-generation (non-G) f/1.4 alternative, or even the sub-£400 f/1.8 version. However, if you have the money then this is a really stunning lens.

Solid MTF figures

Hefty price
