  | sent on 20 Gennaio 2019 Pros: Beautiful lens bokeh from fairytale!! Cons: Nobody!! Opinion: It was years that I hunted down this lens to say the least wonderful, on the portraits has no rivals in my opinion so much that Ken Rockwel calls it the best 135mm F2 in the world, said by him I trusted got used and held very well with a decent price. I tried it on my d800e I have to say that come out wonderful photos, great Nikon, and then when you try these lenses you seem suddenly to have changed camera body and the quality that you perceive on the photos! |
  | sent on 10 Dicembre 2018 Pros: Image quality Cons: Nothing Opinion: I own both in the Nikon AF-S 85mm f/1.4g that its ' brother ' 105mm f/2 D DC. They are all three excellent but I have to say that the image quality of this 135 is really remarkable. I do not use the fuzzy control. It detaches in a very effective way the background from the foreground and this does not depend only greater focal length: The result is a perception of sharpness higher than that already very good test. This aspect, associated with the color rendition, makes it a truly extraordinary lens for the portrait. The construction is... reassuring, very pleasing to the touch too. The focus, at least on the DF, is perfect |
 | sent on 25 Febbraio 2018 Pros: Bokeh, construction quality. Cons: It requires an update, but it would be to the detriment of the quality of assembly and materials. Opinion: Exceptional goal. Today, only Zeiss has constructive qualities of this level. The DC is easy to use, allows excellent results, but it is not for all situations. Natural colors, exceptional bokeh. Optics designed to give the best performance in the first floors. Unfortunately, an updated verrebe of plastic, like the 105mm, so the day you want to upgrade while maintaining or improving quality, only the Milvus 135mm f2 remains. |
 | sent on 06 Ottobre 2017 Pros: Fuzzy; built-in Lens hood Cons: Probably surpassed by newer optics Opinion: Great for portraits; Pleasant even for landscapes by closing the diaphragm; Outstanding on the D700; Good on the D800 and also on D850. Excellent especially for those who think 85 and 105 too wide for portraits limited to the face. It still maintains a good value for money; In terms of absolute quality the latest Nikon 105 is superior but not enough to justify a much greater price. |
 | sent on 27 Aprile 2017 Pros: Portrait lens par excellence: you have to choose carefully to avoid repentance, and the embarrassment of not being able to properly choose your own photographic tools. Cons: Spreading purple Frange. Opinion: A superb goal that stands out for its pictorial talents, with a glamorous glitter that represents the best you could possibly want from a portrait lens. At f2.5 it's almost as intense as 105 f2.5ais at TA. At f2.8 is equal (if not better) than 180 f2.8AFD to TA. But the exclusive bokeh of this 135 has no one, except the 85 f1.4AFD. It has deep, balanced microcontrasts that make it more decisive from f2.8 onwards. REFERENCE TO TA PERFORMANCES AT TA: f2 is clearer than you think, especially if you refer to the complaints of so many users about it. Simply, pdc is so small that you want to open, or for focal length, that the parts in focus (especially if you use the 'spot' mode) drown in the midst of huge and well-drained parts out of focus. Progressions of the blurred, therefore, delve into delightfully giving a gentle and relaxing effect to the photographs. Clearly underlining its peculiarity as a portraitist, as for other applications (where requiredTo a more stentorious and inspirational temperament, even to TA) may not be so rewarding. It should be said, however, that from f2.8 onwards it fades firmly, and f4 turns into another lens, very sharp and detailed. At f2 you just have to be careful about the flare, which tapered the photos with the usual veils, contrasts, and fire errors. DEFOCUS CONTROL: it is certainly an interesting feature, which can be useful in certain creative circumstances, but that is understood and used to exploit it appropriately. It should be set selectively according to the diaphragm in use (eg: f2, set DC, F or R, to 2. With f2.8 you set to 2.8, and so on ...). Surely an added value, though not indispensable. It is enough and advances the conventional function of this lens. RELEVANT TO AF MOTOR: Sufficient enough (a slimmer than 85 f1.8AFD) and very accurate. So lends itself to street and reportage, without any problems. WORDING TO AC AND FLARE: purple frank like it rains! I'm almost everywhere under lHigh, on clear and reflective surfaces. They are well seen even without cropping. The hood helps, but only in part. AC and flare are in the norm of the Nikon D Series, so you know what to expect if you know them. CONSTRUCTION ON THE CONSTRUCTION: optimal weight, not too heavy, not too light. Compact dimensions. There are often so-called 'noble materials' on the one hand (referring to Nikon D), and so-called 'plasticacce' by another (alluding to G) ... I know a simple difference in embossing, since the optics should be used Carefully regardless of their outside cover. The built-in hood seems an anachronistic insect, but it is rather precious, quick to operate, and there is no bayonet plugging or just screw that can compete. Really a beautiful lens, distinctive in everything and for all, with its wonderful merits, its defects, its limits. |
 | sent on 28 Febbraio 2017 Pros: Sharpness at TA, closing becomes devastating for the beauty that returns, construction of another era Cons: For a few, especially those that go behind the marketing, the contrast and color, such as LCD televisions. Opinion: Beautiful it all opened shutting ,, there is a small improvement, from optical portrait par excellence, beautiful blurred, if put in good hands with the DC ring will make photos magistrali.Ottica difficult to define, not the words you would find, however masterpiece mechanical, optical, nothing to do with the modern optics, where there is so much contrast and color and so much plastic, then you are suffering in post production, to remove the Unsharp mask insita.Con these optical dating is everything and more in the right place ... the only flaw I found, is not for everyone, especially those that go behind the fashions and taken tests here and there. |
  | sent on 10 Marzo 2016 Pros: microcontrast and sharpness, massive construction, non-invasive lens hood, precise and fast AF with central point. Cons: You can not mount on TC 1.4x III, makes you want the 200 / 2.0. Opinion: A clear tank from f2,8 but very acceptable already at least at the center TA. I use it for "hunting" photographic backyard, rabbits, lapwings, ducks but if it hooks the central AF point on a bird in flight does not lose it in burst (I have the D610, 5 ftg x sec real) .rnVery good the integrated hood little intrusive, the set looks like a normal zoom std instead splits the hair and you can crop a lot in photo street on the fly, unexpected surprise. Not too difficult to work with the DC ring also I have to try for a long time the various combinations.rnAdd a year later: it is magnificent the defocus on R, both maintaining the same number of the diaphragm that, more simple, set R 4 and work with diaphragms between 2 , 8 and 5.6. You can already see in the car a "warm" pastiness and yet clear. Little describable in words. It is appreciated in print, less on the monitor. When I got it, I did not use the 85mm anymore. It costs but deserves. rnUsually used on a theater easel, fire at 25 meters, framed the whole stage. Diaphragms fra f2,2 and 4. Made 130 photos for a 40-minute show. 130 perfect photos. From great security. Body D500. |
 | sent on 04 Febbraio 2016 Pros: Sharpness, blurred quality, Defocus Control, build quality Cons: Slow autofocus, the switch between auto and manual focus practicality Opinion: Already clear to f 2, top to f 4, the defocus control is a plus to "study" on which to reason well to enrich the composition of personality. Excellent build quality, is very "dense", solid in his hands. Blurry at best as portrait lenses, a feast for the eyes. The colors are as old scuola.rnPersonalmente lens that I love, but now the engine autofocus is older, so slow compared to most modern lenses of this price range, sometimes with little light is uncertain. A defect of the lens in my opinion is given by the difficulty in moving from autofocus to manual focus, frequent passage in the picture, because this is via ring and can make you lose the attimo.rnComunque is, if you can afford it, buy it! |
 | sent on 16 Novembre 2015 Pros: Noble materials, construction Cons: Slight sharpness to open diaphragms, fringing, maf Opinion: Construction of other times with noble materials, other than today's plastic! But optically we are back, and not least. The defocus system does not complicate the already precarious maf, and on some specimens, even by setting it to zero, is the case that the fine calibration carried out in the machine takes us to + or - 15 or 20, which is an enormity. The lens suffers from senior design, it was born for the film and it is seen. You can forget about the amazing performance of the AFS optics with dwarfs at TA, here we are on a very dull level as to sharpness. I would recommend it to vintage lovers or those who are in love with the AFD 85 f 1.4, the family is that and the performance is similar. Defocus is also a nice game at first, then it is often not used anymore. Vote 8, but just because I appreciate the good mechanics ... NOTICE: The writer is not an influencer or a guru, nor does one who downloads other images from the network to impersonate unlikely comparisons. I knownot for almost forty years a passionate nikonist of photography and photographic material and my opinion is not a gospel, but only the result of empirical experience. The objects I write really buy them, I play a few months and if I do not like them, but always and in any case of material at the moment in my possession. I do not make the copy paste of reviews taken here and there on the net, if I'm talking about an item it's just and because I had in the house the time it took (at least months) to try to figure it out. I often go against current, but this does not take my sleep, as far as possible I try to help young aspiring photographers who give a weight to their savings. But, I repeat, I do not bring the verb ... |
 | sent on 02 Giugno 2015 Pros: Blurred, Defocus Control and artistic possibilities, Colour Rendering, Construction Cons: Purple Fringing, AF, Sharpness to F2, loss of contrast backlight Opinion: One of the best portrait lenses Nikon at home, a masterpiece of yesteryear. From this I want to go: to the shield that carries deserve an upgrade, if only to give it the nanocrystals and improve the behavior backlight. In addition to f2 it is not razor sharp and suffers heavily from purple fringing: do not tell me to shut 1 or 2 stop, if you buy a fast lens is to use it to TA. I finished the complaints, now the magic: the photos are unique creating this masterpiece, the DC should be used and tested because it is a pleasant diversion from the monotony of the other objectives, always equal in their yield of blurry. Moreover, not a small thing, it is built to last, with quality materials, besides being a very beautiful object. In short, a lens to use: you do not like it very difficult, difficult not to fall in love. |
 | sent on 08 Dicembre 2014 Pros: the DC's name. It should be understood how it works, but the result is phenomenal Cons: Fringing more than I would have expected. Nothing that does not result in post Opinion: A phenomenal lens for portraits. Fantastic construction and consistency by lens "pro". Very long on DX, practically unusable. At the moment is the main reason why I decided to move to FX, abandoning my D90.rnrnLente very bright, even though a lot 'less of Samyang 85 1.4 I gave in exchange for this lens, but ... But the Samyang has AF, the control of the bokeh is done at the factory and is not particularly sharp at TArnrnQuesta is AF, although slow and can control the bokeh between front and rear is a jump of a few light-years for people like me who has the spot |
 | sent on 12 Novembre 2014 Pros: 135 mm more compact and discreet Cons: to f2 do not look at the pixel is not the case Opinion: a lens of another time, when they used Vaseline on the lens ... I tried it, well, well just using the normal diaphragms, the defocus requires a thorough test, the results too variable to be matched to the change of the diaphragm, it is not easy to understand I think that sometimes it's more clear when it is added to that when it is zero ... oh, well. ?? .. it takes longer ... rn Proven on both FX and on dx..a f2 light passes right in all photos are beautiful saturated colors and c is a good contrast, but if it looks good c is a heavy ball that takes aberazione microcontrast, a green and purple to no end on the already blurred slightly contrasting light not to mention the metal surfaces .. .and a pochina vignetting want it ?? it is close .... rnpoi a stop ... and everything changes ... another lens, engraved throughout the frame, delicate strokes of color saturation incredibly three-dimensional solid red .... ... that strong .. but polite ... but c 'is a but .. it is light years away from a good 70 200 !! I expected better ... and how to havea Ferrari that goes a bit 'better than a Golf GTi pumped ... (oh god !! actually is course also costs more) rnche know I was expecting something like a 200 f2 vr miniature, they are the 70 200 remain in the post ... devastante.Magari the new version soon ... ??? |
 | sent on 09 Luglio 2014 Pros: incision and excellent brightness Cons: problems focus had to correct 20 points autofocus of the D800 Opinion: Photos with very few flaws already defined by F2, F4 8, fast focus, excellent natural colors on portraits if the models do not have defects pelle.rnConsigliato autofocus to manual if you do not have the ability to correct AF order otherwise the wrong focus. rnSfuocato by manual with the possibility to adjust both before and after the subjects (Defocus). |

| sent on 27 Luglio 2013 Pros: Quality optical defocus control weight balance Cons: Probably a little prone to purple fringing in strong contrast Opinion: Beautiful crystal-clear lens already at room temperature with a peak between f / 4 and f / 5,6. The blur that can produce an absolute dream and even diaphragms a little more closed. On the d800 produces files that practically do not need PP, good contrast and color rendition fabulous. Even the autofocus performs very well while not using ultrasonic motor, in each case largely satisfactory considering the type of use of this goal. The vignetting at room temperature is maintained at a level of absolute importance. I also own the 135 f / 2 Canon which I consider great, but this in my opinion and from another planet, except for the fastest speed af canon. Ultimately the portrait lens (and not only) with a capital O. Sleek and stylish |
 | sent on 11 Novembre 2012 Pros: Great portrait lens, especially those "stolen" in the street. Blurred just as great with the possibility of being able to further control the DC function. Cons: The autofocus is not lightning as the AF-S. At times, some specimens may suffer from front / back focus. Opinion: It 's really a bell'attrezzo. Solid construction as the objectives of "once". It produces high-contrast colors when compared to optical odiernern (G-series and nanocrystals). The focus at the widest apertures is very pleasant. He still has the ring to control the aperture and this allows the analog utilizzornsui old bodies. |
