Nikon 85mm f/1.8D

In Stock

Nikon 85mm f/1.8D

A small, fast, and sharp near telephoto prime. Often used for head and shoulder portraits, its also a nice concert or indoor sports lens.

D40/60/5000/3000 owners—-you will not be able to autofocus with this lens. Please consult your owner’s manual for compatibility.

Roger’s take: When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. NASA scientists spent $2 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300 degrees Celsius. The Russians used a pencil. This is the pencil of 85mm lenses. You can spend a lot more and get something cool and fancy. This just does the job efficiently and at a good price.

Small enough to fit in your pocket, its nice to carry around ‘just in case I need a wide aperture’. A very nice lens at a bargain price.
