I did a lot of research and asked photographers a lot of questions. This lens was $1k more than the 1.8. The pictures that come through this lens are remarkable!! I'm so happy with it!!

Happy together!

Wonderful at capturing minute detail sharply, it also depicts facial tones beautifully with the utmost clarity and sharpness. Renders a soft tone to facial complexions at the widest aperture where a smooth and beautiful bokeh is desired and where faster shutter speeds can be effectively employed. Auto focusing is fast, efficient, and virtually silent and this highly coveted lens, by many serious portrait photographers, is highly praised for its small size and weight and, as usual, Nikon build quality is superb.

Great lens for portraiture and most general photography endeavors.

By far, the best lens I have ever purchased! I can't believe I got this amazing deal on this used leans!! It's amazing!!!

Amazing Lens!!

Portrait lens

It shipped package well and met my expectations.

NICE

The best portrait and low light lens ever made.

Fabulous!!

Excellent!

I’m very pleased with my new lens! I chose 1 day shipping and received it on time and securely packed. I am very pleased with everything!

Confident in my purchase

Great for portraits, no VR, so I usually shoot at f2.2 and higher, if sharper images needed. Does not like a direct sun. Combining this one with D850, before 5600. Both good results. There is CA, can be easily removed in pp. Much better lens than 50 mm either 1.4 or 1.8., the 70-200 2.8 VR fl Ed also great.

Typically saves a day..

Great lens. Built well and extremely sharp. Focus calibration out of the box was perfect. Depth of Field focus blur at f/1.4 creates the perfect background for my portraits.

My new go to lens. Nikon 85mm f/1.4

I was struggling to choose which portrait lens to buy between the 105 F/1.4 and the 85 F1.4. Finally I took a shot at getting this one. Once the test shots came out I just dropped since I have never seen crazy bokeh like this lens. I thought the 70-200 F/2.8 was good, but when it comes to portrait this one hit the ceiling.

Most ridiculous bokeh ever!

I’ve wanted this lens for a year, and it was worth the wait. It’s a terrific lens - sharp, sturdy, and exceptionally well made.

 As a side note, the folks at Adorama made the shopping experience smooth, and I always appreciate their little free accessory bundles.

Great portrait lens

Really sharp photos amazing and fun. I love the portraits I take with this thing.

Great lens, cheaper options.

After waiting, saving, considering, and studying, I finally chose this lens for my portraiture work over the 105mm lens and over competing brands of 85mm lenses. I was not disappointed at all. The lens is solidly built and delivers a sharp image from corner to corner. When I received it, I first did a careful autofocus calibration. I then used it for about three hours, photographing everything and everyone in sight and checking the results. The next day, I had a studio sitting with a client and used this lens exclusively. I am my own pickiest critic, but I was left with nothing but smiles as I reviewed the photos during post.

I've seen comments about the weight of this lens, but I don't notice the weight at all. It gives a perfect balance to my D810 and the focus ring does not inadvertently get hung up on my fingers when I shoot free-handed (no tripod). I've had that problem with other lenses, as the focus ring sits too close in towards the camera body. Not so with this lens.

I couldn't be more pleased with the sharpness of the images throughout the aperture range and with the ability to achieve very shallow depth of field at the widest aperture settings. My only limitation with this lens is that my studio dimensions make photographing family shots a bit difficult at this focal length. Good thing I didn't go with the 105mm! I had been using my 24-70mm zoom for much of my portrait work, augmenting it with the 70-200mm zoom. This lens has quickly become the one I'm most attached to and I'm anticipating that I will be using it much more than the other two in the future.

Expected Quality Delivered by This Lens

This lens achieved high status because it renders skin tones, color and out of focus areas smoothly. It is technically extremely sharp as this focal length range generates some of the sharpest lens designs possible - but that is not its calling card. How it makes people & light look are its strengths. 

It is substantially larger than the 85mm 1.8 and much smaller than the new 105mm 1.4. It handles mid tone to highlight transitions better than the 85mm 1.8 and is very slightly less punchy overall than the 105 1.4 - which has similar smooth rendering and reluctance to blow highlights. 

If you are interested in a short tele for portraits your choice is between the 105mm 1.4 and the 85mm 1.4. Both make magic. After using both I bought the 85mm 1.4 because I prefer the focal length - just seems right to me, I like how it makes faces look.

If you make portraits this is lens is for you.

Nikon 85mm 1.4

A high quality portrait lens that is fast and sharp. Built to last and the glass is amazing. I would highly recommend this lens. Get it.

An amazing portrait lens that is now a classic

Sharp from edge to edge. Exceptional  low light capability. Will be my go to lens. A great buy!

Wonderfully surprised! Highly recommended.

This is hands down my favorite lens. It stays on my camera only to be taken off when I want to photograph a landscape (which is rare, I primarily photograph people). This lens does almost everything for me, so I've really cut back on my editing time, now it's just color correcting and minor touchups for the most part. I recommend this lens to all my photographer friends. It is worth the money for sure!

My favorite lens!

Great lens. Fast focus and accurate, perfect field of vision and crystal clear photos. Great at low light as well. One of the best Nikon lens I have.
Nikon D5

Great pics

So let me start by saying that for the last 10 years I've been a Canon user. Not because I had a preference, simply because it's what I started with and had enough of an investment in lenses I just stuck with it. With the release of the D850 being timed right around the time I was due for a body upgrade I decided to make the switch. This lens blows me away. I was impressed right from the moment I opened the box and saw the care and excellence of the packaging. The build quality is second to none and as for shooting all I can say is wow!!!!. I don't have a moments regret about the switch to Nikon and I definitely have a preference now.

Impressive!

I struggled over buying this or the 58mm.  Read somewhere that the 58mm, though producing outstanding images, was a lightweight plastic lens.  Don't know if that is true, but went with the 85 and am very happy.  Having the 1.4 35mm in my bag didn't hurt either.

Great lens

Under moonlight & streetlights

Love this lens. It produces gorgeous photos with a great bokeh. Very nice for portraits.

Wonderful prime lens.

Nikon glass is so very clear. I have had  Sigma lenses for a long time and have been shying away from Nikon because of the price.  Now I see the big difference I will always use  Nikon

Nikon glass is well worth the price

Exactly what I was looking for. Great bokeh

Great Photos

Such a great lens! Definitely slower in low light, but better than Canon's 85mm 1.2 in my opinion. 

Great Buy!

My new #1 lense. Adorama transaction was stellar!

My new #1 lense

Great lens, super sharp on the D4S and D810, very little corrrection required in PP. Crisp images, good compression and AWESOME Bokeh.
One of my favorites.
Lastly, I should mention that I had the D version for years and never thought that could be beaten but this lens actually does make a noticeable difference

L O V E this Lens

I don't know if I had a bad copy, but I had too many missed shots due to auto focus issues. I returned the lens and opted for tt he Sigma 85mm Art. I'm so glad I did!
