Features

  • Beautiful background blur: the fast f/1.2 aperture is shaped by 11 rounded blades, more than most lenses, for smoother, rounder, more natural blur.
  • Dramatic focus transitions: Enable linear focusing with Z 9, Z 7II, and Z 6II for controlled, accurate manual focus pulling, or let the camera do the work with near-silent Eye-Detect AF.
  • Camera compatibility: Compatible with Full Frame/FX format and APS-C size/DX format Nikon Z series mirrorless (on APS-C size cameras, the lens has a 35mm equivalent field of view of 128mm).
  • Striking background separation: A paper-thin f/1.2 plane of focus, the flattering perspective compression of 85mm and the intense sharpness of this lens create a three-dimensional effect that immediately commands attention.
  • Exacting Control: Activate subject tracking, image playback, AF Lock and more from the L-Fn button; manually adjust aperture, ISO or exposure compensation with the Control Ring

  • Incredible lens with a few tradeoffs.
Spectacular sharpness and wonderous image quality. The focus speed is fairly fast. Very thin focus range at smallest aperture creates exotic imagery. Contains typical Nikon cost cutting, like their unnatural attraction for plastic front filter rings (no excuse to not be metal at this price range). Lens hood fits well and has no rattles. 82mm front filter isn't overly large. Beautiful Bokeh. Excellent sun stars. Little or no internal lens flare. From a physics standpoint - the lens is large and heavy. Am I pleased for the price? I'd say wait till it goes on sale. Overpriced at list for all the plastics. Definitely buy if portraits are your passion. ... show more

  • Best lens in my kit by far! Worth every penny
To say that I like this lens is putting it mildly. Having recently taken to portrait work, this lens is unbeatable. The 1.2 creates such an amazing separation of subject and background that you will notice the difference the first photoshoot and ask yourself why you waited so long (outside of the absurd pricetag that is...) Save you pennies but do not wait too long as these lenses will only be seeing tariff-related increases in prices rather than the "I can wait until the price drops" sale that we all have come to expect. Expect this lens to go up about $500 due to the manufacturing country being punished for trying to earn a living. ... show more

  • Great purchase!
They say the lens is as important as the camera or maybe even more important. This lens proves it! My first use provided shots so lush, beautiful colors and great shallow depth of field. I’m thrilled with the aperture which will allow more and better photos in low light. Very happy photographer here. Looking forward to taking it out again. ... show more

  • Wonderful lens, worth the money.
Excellent lens in all respects, only downside is size and weight.

  • Beautiful lens.
Basically this lens now never comes off my camera. Used to use the Nikon 105 1.4 and that was my favorite but this is faster and sharper and focus works faster. Just amazing image quality.

  • Excellent
This lens is excellent, I don't wanna take it off my camera. LOL And, I find myself wanting to use it for everything. It takes some getting used to because of the short depth field but once you learn how to control your depth of field ,speed and lighting for different scenarios it's fantastic. I've been in photography for many many years and most of my lenses are F2.8, F1.4. For me it has really taking more time to learn this lens over my other ones. How ever it's been worth ever minute. I love the Low Light Control, how to get the best for less light. Professional, it is! on my Z8. ... show more
