Details
Intimate atmosphere or large event. Staged or spontaneous shots. The fast 85mm f/1.8 portrait lens from Nikon is incredibly handy. The Nikon large-diameter Z bayonet makes the most of available light and contributes significantly to brilliant detail throughout the frame. Autofocus is fast, and Nikon-Z cameras keep the focus securely on the subject's eye - even in a crowd.
Natural depth
Bokeh is wonderfully natural - even in the corners of the image. The focused subject is always reproduced with maximum sharpness and highlights are reproduced as natural out-of-focus circles.
Fine details
Skin tones appear natural and sharpness is outstanding right into the corners of the image - even when shooting at open aperture. With a closest focusing distance of just 0.8 m, you have full control over the framing - from close-up to infinity.
Natural beauty even when backlit
Regardless of the environment, Nikons Nano Crystal Coat reduces reflections and effectively prevents ghosting and aperture spots - for brilliant images. Every component of a scene is perfectly reproduced even when backlit.
Show character
Shoot video with a wonderfully shallow depth of field. Whether it's an emotional close-up or a night scene with great bokeh light, this 85mm lens lets you expose your subject in all its beauty. The virtually silent autofocus lets just the quiet moments shine. The silent adjustment ring lets you focus with absolute precision. Focus breathing has been almost completely eliminated.
Instinctive control
Runs. The wide, easy-grip adjustment ring allows intuitive yet precise handling. It can be used to silently adjust aperture or exposure compensation, and as a focus ring when focusing manually.
Everywhere
Shoot in the rain - or under the champagne shower! Every moving part of the lens barrel is elaborately sealed against the ingress of dust and water droplets.
