With a medium telephoto focal length and a large f1.8 maximum aperture, the Nikon 85mm 1.8G lens is going to entice you if you shoot portraits. Also excellent for low-light shooting, this lens is compatible with both FX and DX-format cameras, providing an equivalent focal length of a long 127mm on the latter. A favourite focal length for wedding photographers, 85mm lenses provide tightly-cropped head and shoulder portraits without you having to get too close to your model, leaving them natural and comfortable.

This compact Nikon medium telephoto prime lens is fantastic for producing tightly-cropped portraiture, a desirable feature for professionals, wedding photographers and your casual shooter. Weighing just 350 grams and measuring just over 3 inches in length this Nikon 85mm lens is small and unobtrusive enough to be positioned on the front of your camera for long periods of time, and it will not spook or intimidate your subjects.
Beautiful portraits shot in dim surroundings
Well suited to a wide range of lighting conditions including very dim interiors, this lens features a fast, bright f1.8 max aperture. This lens lets in extra light, allowing you to shoot at faster shutter speeds when the light gets low; sharper, blur-free handheld images are a given.
Another trait of this large aperture is the ability to produce a shallow depth of field in your photographs. Backgrounds are reduced to a dream-like bluer with ease, meaning your sharp and in focus foregrounds are all the more catching.
Accurate autofocus, from a motor that won't turn heads
For focussing on your subjects you are afforded great flexibility in the form of silent and fast autofocus and manual focus override. The Silent Wave Motor included in the Nikon 85mm f1.8G features traits that are desirable for video and still shooting alike; fast, quiet and smooth, all the while achieving extremely accurate focus.
If you wish to take matters into your own hands or are practicing selective focus, the Nikon 85mm allows for full-time manual focus override in M/A mode, allowing you to simply turn the focus ring, without changing any settings on the lens
Sturdy yet light construction
Maintaining its compact form at all times, the Nikon 85mm f1.8G has internal focusing. This means the lens does not change size during AF operation and is therefore consistently compact. This feature also makes using polarising filters a lot easier and allows for closer focusing distances.
To combat imperfections such as internal reflections and provide extremely accurate colour reproduction, this 85mm lens contains Nikon's Super Integrated coating; sure to offer edge-to-edge, high-quality images of a range of subject matter.
