Nikon NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S

With the NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S for mirrorless cameras with a cine-film-format image field, you can capture portrait images that capture your heart with sharpness, no matter what scene you're shooting - classic head-and-shoulders portraits or natural close-ups. Its superior optical performance will take you to a new dimension of detail and nuance. It smoothly outperforms even its predecessors, lenses with f/1.4 aperture and fixed focal length. The NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S lens is designed for Nikon Z mount mirrorless cameras with Full Frame sensor, has autofocus, with the aperture ring, dust and moisture resistance, has a 67 mm diameter filter thread and weighs approximately 470 g.

High-aperture portrait lens for every situation

Whether you're shooting intimate scenes or spectacular events, capturing staged shots or snapshots, the NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S high aperture 85mm portrait lens offers fabulous flexibility. Thanks to the large-diameter Nikon Z bayonet, the entire field of view is full of impressive detail even when shooting in natural light. The lens focuses quickly and Nikon Z cameras are able to lock onto the subject's eye whether they are standing alone or just one face in a crowd.

Real depth and fine detail

Enjoy a beautiful, natural-looking reproduction of out-of-focus areas (bokeh) that transitions smoothly to the edges of the image field. Focused areas are always perfectly rendered and spot brightnesses are reproduced as circular areas. Skin tones appear natural and the sharpness of images to the edges of the field is impressive - even when shooting with the aperture fully open. The shortest focusing distance is only 0.8 m. This makes the scene all yours, from close objects to infinity.

The beauty of the backlight

Nikon Nano Crystal Coat anti-reflective layers can suppress the appearance of veils and reflexes. Your images will be more brilliant no matter what settings you use. Even when shooting in backlight, the reproduction of every element of the scene is flawless.

Individuality as a means of expression

Capture video footage with beautifully limited depth of field. The NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S lens allows you to impressively isolate subjects from their surroundings in emotionally charged close-ups and night scenes enriched by beautifully blurred backgrounds. Practical noiseless autofocus allows you to take advantage of moments of silence for exceptional images. The silent command ring allows you to focus with absolute precision. We managed to almost completely eliminate focal length changes during focusing.

Intuitive operation and resistance to the elements

Don't let anything limit you. The wide knurled command ring gives you precise and intuitive control. You can use it to quietly control aperture or exposure correction, and in manual focus mode it acts as a focus ring. You can take pictures in the rain or in a champagne shower at a party. All moving parts of the lens barrel are sealed against dust and water droplets.
