    Phenomenal Lens!

    Posted by Baseline Photography on March 11, 2012

    I bought this lens a few weeks ago and it´s been incredible to shoot with. It´s extremely quick and great in low light. The 1.8 f-stop allows for a creamy bokeh. For a long time, I dreamed about one day purchasing the 85mm 1.4G, but now that I´ve purchased this one, I am extremely content.

    Excellent all around lens

    Posted by Nikon1 user on March 9, 2012

    Excellent lense that balances well on My D80 w/MBD80. Focus is very fast and accurate. This lense creates excellent images event at 1.8. There is very minor problems with Chromatic Aberation.

    Value for money lens

    I was planning to get 85mm 1.8 D, however 1.8 G is slightly better (keeping in mind the price difference).

    Great Improvement from the D Version

    Posted by Chris on February 28, 2012

    This lens focuses much faster than the D version. On a D7000, there is noticeable fringing wide open, but that is to be expected on cheaper glass. The physical size of it is just right. It´s bigger than the f/1.8D, but smaller than the f/1.4G. The weight is just perfect, too. 85mm has always been my favorite focal length and this lens deepens my love.
