Nikon 85mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Review

 

The comparison between the 85mm ƒ/1.8 and ƒ/1.4 versions is one of the longest ongoing discussions concerning the Nikon product line. In the final analysis they are dramatically different products, offering results which are difficult to compare.

Nikon 85mm f/1.8 D AF Review Round-Up

 

The Nikkor AF 85mm f/1.8 D was a very boring lens during the tests simply because it showed a exceptional performance in all tested categories. Besides the lab results the lens shows a beautiful bokeh (out-of-focus blur). If I had to name a weakness it...

Made my husband very happy

 

Its black, its round, it has some glass in it! Thats about as much as I know - I bought this for my husband for his birthday and he loves it. He uses it to take pics of the kids and has mentioned it produces pin sharp pics.

Solid Quality

 

Excellent shallow depth of field at full open aperture. Very Sharp. Better value and I suspect higher quality of construction than latest version but only consider if your camera can drive the focus system for autofocus. Very impressed with this lens....

Strong Construction

No bayonet for lens hood
