Product Description

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G Lens is a strong addition to the family of sitting at a focal sweet spot that makes it a great lens for portraiture or a general-purpose, fast and short telephoto prime lens. The bright f/1.8G aperture lets this design find a balance between some tricky considerations. Lightweight and compact, while also letting users quickly modulate their depth of field.

Low-light or bright sunny days, the compact form of this 85mm lens hides a surprisingly strong adaptability. Each lens element is coated in a Super Integrated Coating, fighting off the glare and ghosting of high-light situations. Bright and back-lit conditions are an easy ask, as are the opposite low-light situations you might find indoors or in shaded outdoor areas.

Powered by the Silent Wave Motor gives users a fast autofocus that is accurate and reliable. A full-time manual override is there for anyone looking to take a tighter grip on the reigns.

 

Features of the Nikon NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G Lens

  • Short-telephoto prime is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras, however can also be used with DX models where it provides a 127.5mm equivalent focal length.
  • A bright f/1.8 maximum aperture makes shallow depths of field and low-light photography a breeze.
  • A Super Integrated Coating on each lens element. Reducing surface and internal reflections for a marked reduction in lens flare and ghosting.
  • The Silent Wave Motor produces fast and reliable auto-focus performance. The featured full-time manual override is always there for those wanting to take further control.
  • A quirk of the internal design permits manual focusing without altering the physical length of the lens, promoting a faster manual focusing speed.
  • A seven-blade diaphragm that facilitates an incredible natural bokeh quality.
