Pros: Lens impresses with its sharpness and speed. Beautiful blur. Lens is lightweight.
Cons: Sometimes it gets lost at f1.4. There are no other defects. In Poland, there is little affordable price higher grade lenses.
Opinion: I think that the lens is recommendable to all lovers of photography people and portraits. Things you can do with this lens pass by expectations. Unfortunately I did not G series for comparison, but I think even I would not want to replace. I'm working on the D7000 and earlier this lens I had attached to the Fuji S5Pro and check just as well. I highly recommend this lens.
The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Opinion:I am not a "portraitist", but when I happen to do some portraits, this lens gives me great satisfaction, it makes real miracles. For me it's fantastic. An exceptional bokeh, I follow those who have defined this lens "the cream machine": it deserves this name in full. Worth all the money spent, I recommend it. For me I vote 10.
Pros: Today the price, fine lenses, sharpness to TA in the center, soft bokeh surreal I would say. Construction!
Cons: AF Not compatible with Z systems. Not excellent at the edges, but I find that for this type of optics it is irrelevant. Other cons? Don't have it!
Opinion:I had several 85mm f1.8 G at nikon honest optics for the price of the new, but this 85 f1.4D is something exceptional worth all the money spent, if you find a good specimen take it! Sharp to scare even to TA if you close a little' its sharpness and' very high. But the sharpness in the center is not the real strength that makes this lens unique, for that there are the various art, or the new version that are more performing at the edges, let's say that the latter have a more homogeneous yield. After some portraits I understood why it was baptized the cream machine, the optics has its own character and is sharp and soft at the same time as if a filter had been applied! Incredible! The files of how beautiful they were prevented me from retouching them, the colors do not seem cold at all, perhaps a little more neutral than the less contrasted G, I set the WB in PRE with the zero White filter obtaining a very neutral balance, however the colors were quite warm. It's a shame that this lens is not compatible with the Z system, I find that the new F1.4 G version is a lens with different qualities, and 'as if they were two distinct optics. I think I'll leave it attached to the camera for a long time :-) It's really addictive! If you have the chance buy it!! Vote 10!
Pros:Colors, bokeh, sharpness in the center, construction
Cons:edges, purple fringing
Opinion:Usually I wait before writing about a lens but for years I have been looking for shots and opinions, it is one of the best nikon lenses for portrait, old-fashioned metal construction, simply spectacular bokeh (for my taste), excellent colors on the d3s, extreme edges not excellent but it is not a problem for a portrait lens; ac forgivable? certainly at 1.4 expect this too but overall negligible defects considering the color rendering and bokeh.
Pros:Perfectly balanced color rendering for sweet and exciting portraits, sharpness in the center, fantastic blurry both behind and in front of the subject, construction.
