The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.  | sent on July 13, 2020 Pros: A little bit everything Cons: AC to f1.8 Opinion: Arrived Friday, used Saturday night on my trust d700 for most of the evening, little to add to what already written ... if just there is something to say with very diffuse light you notice a little AC to f1.8 (especially coma), otherwise compact lens, well built, blurry very nice... the lens I was missing |
  | sent on November 07, 2019 Pros: Gorgeous for portraits, soft blurry. The rendering of colors is delicate. Solid construction. Cons: Hard to find... Opinion: Gorgeous optics, use on aps-c and full frame for portraiture. Solid construction, precise, blurry soft, very pleasant "pastel" color yield. The weight is a bit felt but nothing worrying, it is still a fairly compact fixture. It should be present in any respectable kit. |
 | sent on November 07, 2019 Pros: Plastic but solid, made a little vintage, light and compact, pastel colors, price of used Cons: Bulky metal lampshade and not capable upside down. Opinion: I bought this used but practically new lens from a Forum user, good sharpness and chromatic rendering. I still have to prove it well but the first impression was great. For now I highly recommend it. I bought it by reading the other reviews where it shows the somewhat vintage yield compared to the brother 85 1.8g and in fact I can only confirm this thing Moreover if found used but in perfect condition between 200 and 240eu you have done terno to the Lotto. |
 | sent on March 28, 2019 Pros: Image Quality Cons: Lens Hood, AF Noisy Opinion: I jumped back from the 85mm 1.8 G to this version D. I found everything I could not find in the G. Few chromatic aberrations, soft bokeh, open shadows, colors. I lost a flush of sharpness to 1.8 (irrelevant to both monitor and print). More accurate but noisy Autofocus. The Hood cannot be placed in the opposite direction. It is slightly heavier than the G but it is smaller, it seems to have attached a 50mm. I found what I was looking for, great. |
 | sent on February 12, 2019 Pros: Optical quality, natural colour rendering, price/performance ratio. Cons: They don't produce it anymore. Opinion: Extremely high performance optics even at full aperture... and I could already greet you here! Closing the diaphragm becomes amazing without going down heavy... and here it would take the second greeting. You will find points of weakness and to your amazement you won't see why the surrender is truly spectacular. Then you'll read reviews that emphasize a nervous and unpleasant fuzzy and looking at the photos obtained with this lens you ask: "But what are they talking about"? I think that the optics should be used and not measured and that the extreme brightness is always reached with many compromises that we pretend not to know and not see... so they correct in post production with a few simple clicks. With 300.00 euros, if in perfect condition, buy a spectacular optics that will accompany you for many years giving you lots of satisfactions. I recommend it, owning it from twenty years, then you do! |
 | sent on February 12, 2019 Pros: Compact, solid, luminous, colour rendition, micro-contrast Cons: AF noisy (but generally not used to shoot video). The real problem is that they don't do it anymore... Opinion: Bought used, paid a price more than just for the quality of this lens. For portraits it's phenomenal. More than adequate sharpness and chromatic dream rendition. Blurry very good. F 1.8 is fine. In my opinion for portraits under F 1.8 except for very special needs does not make sense, the depth of field becomes ridiculous. Instead today we run to those who have the smallest (the value of f...). Too bad they don't do any more lenses like that. |
 | sent on February 06, 2018 Pros: Sharpness Cons: Bo-keh River Opinion: Very good optics, already at full opening, and you could close the review here. However, if sharpness is impeccable, unfortunately the blurry is not as strong. At full opening everything is fine, but just diaphragm a little (f2,8), the lights in the background take on a hexagonal shape decidedly unsightly, which makes the positive characteristics of this lens take second place. This defect has been canceled on the AFS version. Rating: 9++ sharpness but 7 for bo-keh (total 8) |
 | sent on February 06, 2018 Pros: Sharpness not screamed, bokeh, lightness, f2 optical performance Cons: sharpness to ta (but it is quite normal), my sample suffers slightly from fb focus Opinion: An exceptional lens. rnUsed on d750 where he complained a slight fb focus (corrected with fine adjustment), on d810 instead was calibrated correctly (mystery, do not ask why). On both SLRs he always satisfied me, but you have to know what to expect. It does not have the overclocked clarity of the G series (not that it is better or worse, they are personal tastes), but as you close the diaphragm improves the sharpness up to f2.5 / 3.2 where it becomes sharp! at 1.8 has a slight glow effect that if tamed, can become a pro! rnLa I'm still using on a7r through the metabones and the fact that the ring of the maf is so soft means that the use in mf is extremely fun, with a practice (and the use of focus peaking) is able to have a manual focusing speed better than the automatic. In this regard, the AF is quite slow and noisy, in conditions of poor contrast fails and you have to resort to mf, compromises more than acceptable. rnLast consideration on theprice: 250 € used is a bargain, a bestbuy. Now, mf for mf, I'm quite trying to switch to Samyang 85 / 1.4, but this 85 kidnapped me and will always remain in my heart, whatever my future choice! |
user61502  | sent on February 05, 2018 Pros: Price - Sharpness - Metal hood Cons: Once grafted on the SLR you do not take it anymore. Opinion: I have always had this perspective and for what it costs I believe there is nothing better. Nitida to all the diaphragms with a balanced color return. The blur that returns is excellent, certainly not comparable to 1.4, but pleasant and "pasty". A real pleasure to use it. To have in the photographic kit absolutely. |
 | sent on August 23, 2017 Pros: Clarity, blur, yield, size and limited weight Cons: nobody Opinion: It is a very clear lens and in my opinion very valid. Opening 1.8 is a good compromise between brightness and usability. At full opening the yield is already very good, even at the edges, and it is great to close one stop, keeping it on consistently high values ??up to 8/11. Distortion is negligible; The color rendition is very good and tendentially natural, although in some situations may appear a magenta dominant. Unsurprising contrast makes it suitable for portraits, while at sharpness level is an extremely analytic, even infinite goal. The blur is very enjoyable. It's a lens of 1994, so do not expect monstrous performances at TA and edges as some of today's goals; However, has a very nice character and the portraits are fine. |

 | sent on November 05, 2016 Pros: Sharpness, price of used, sizes Cons: Unremarkable, perhaps uncomfortable method to insert the lens hood, or screwing rn Opinion: Bought used in very good condition, at a more than reasonable price for the type of lens and the reputation that segue.rnLa construction is good, and also looks good; as regards the yield, it has good sharpness, but not in TA, which may be an advantage, rather than a defect, for a lens designed for the portrait; stopping down increases the sharpness still in a esponenziale.rnGrazie at 9 aperture blades, generates a nice bokeh, rather delicate .... the colors are the classic pastellosi, and not typical of G lenses brilliant, can like it or not, but for portraits, in my opinion, have an effect very migliore.rnUna recommended lens, also for the very good construction, and the fact that in used now you can also find more than good prices, taking home an excellent lens , and also compatta.rnConsigliato |
 | sent on September 17, 2016 Pros: Accuracy and responsiveness. Affordable price. Behavior rather uniform at all focal lengths. Dimensions / weight spot on / i. Cons: Whether it is out of production. Opinion: It is a reliable tool. And so basta.rnForse depends on the machine on which it is mounted. I use it on D3, D300, D700.rnFocheggia more precisely, it is very fast, you face portraits or photos impromptu, has a blurred appropriate, neither too ethereal, nor too flat, or too hard. The in-focus subject is in focus, always, even in the diaphragm fully open, and the aberrations are rather contained. It has an attractive appearance: not too large (dia62), balanced weight ... makes you want to take him along. Chromatically speaking, it is a full-blown D: lively and mellow colors, balanced and not too severe sharpness. The blur is 'reed' type, a bit 'noisy,' tritato'.rnRiguardo ice effect at the G version, it is a slow to learn, to study, to govern ... this however is ready, always efficient. The blurry best and silky yield and stroke are the G, but for everything else, there is the D. rnAffiancato from 35 f2 and 180 f2.8, guarantees perfect results, as long as you do not ef at too high resolutions. |
 | sent on December 21, 2015 Pros: Sharp already TA, AF fast, construction, blurred. Cons: For the moment I can not find. Opinion: Just bought and already won me over with its very pasty bokeh. The sharpness in TA is really very very good, the af fast and accurate (use it on D3). I preferred to 1.8 G because I believe this too chiurgico for portraits, it seems a macro.rnL'1.8 D recommend it to anyone who wants a high yield without fainting too. |
 | sent on December 10, 2015 Pros: clarity, weight and price Cons: unremarkable Opinion: Until amazed by the clarity that this lens now somewhat dated manages to pull off. Recommended for portraits and more. And 'undoubtedly one of the goals that can not stay at home during my outings. Widely recommended, because it is also used in excellent condition at really good prices. |
 | sent on October 22, 2015 Pros: Build quality and weight as blurred colors Cons: Perhaps the minimum distance of focus Opinion: This goal I dreamed for a long time! Start by saying that the build quality and the materials used are top.la focus is lightning because it uses the system which only moves the lens postere and is very precise even if the depth of field is very poca.la color quality is extraordinary we speak of pastel colors very true to life with little variation at all kneaded and fuzzy fantastic warm and creamy almost a goal spalmato.è small enough for its gauge unlike other 85mm and also leggero.montato on the machine is not so much bigger than 35mm.ottimo for busts up close and although the distance of focus is 85cm.

 | sent on July 06, 2015 Pros: construction, sharpness, excellent optical quality Cons: nothing really relevant Opinion: This is one of those lenses that once you try you fall in love and you realize what is really the sharpness and focus, the rest is called "creamy machine" not for nothing ... rngià very good at 1.8, 2 in on spettacolare.rnVa it is used consciously and in small doses ... because then it's hard to find lenses that can bear their comparison :-) |
 | sent on March 14, 2015 Pros: Excellent construction "Made in japan" rnResa beautiful already almost TArnColori pasty and shades open, excellent x who postproduce. Cons: Does not have the internal engine, so you can use in AF only on machines equipped with the engine but not a real defect ... Opinion: I use it as a medium telephoto x shots of wedding, never a disappointment, the colors are pasty and shadows are not too contrasted as the new AFS (among other things tried and immediately returned), we say that for those who make the PP file is decidedly more space, at least from my point of view. The quality is very high already f2.rnLo will replace short-x need only with the 1.4 |
 | sent on July 12, 2014 Pros: Glass and metal ... excellent yield by f2, 2 to f5, 6 Cons: Autocus noisy, slow post. delicate, rearfocus Opinion: The photos taken with this lens are in my opinion the beautiful + I together with those of 180mm. Rearfocus uncomfortable ... the slow post. moves and with time it may happen that enters the dust ... and delicate as exposed. Yield spectacular from f2, 2 to f5, 6 ... got it used at a good price, well covering and metal hood. We recommend the purchase even compared to the new model because of the colors ... x + "pastellosi" former lower contrast. |
 | sent on May 14, 2014 Pros: Made in japan, construction, sharpness, price-performance ratio Cons: Prices still used on high .... I do not find other flaws .. Opinion: I love this lens for portrait. Robust construction, just take it in your hand you an immediate feeling of solidity and precision that only the old objectives Made in japan can send. Value for money unbeatable. Focus very mellow and pleasant, in my opinion, already very clear to 2.2.rnAf on d700 accurate and fast enough, it will not be an afs but not doing badly. Tonal colors and old-fashioned, I consider it an advantage in comparison to the major conflicts of the new series N.rnNon I can only highly recommend their purchase, you will not regret! Rn |
 | sent on October 23, 2013 Pros: hood metal screw, af fast, one blurred spectacular, sharp above f2.8, quality / price ratio Cons: for me no Opinion: On the d7000 I use it for ritratito in external (as it becomes 125mm on mine) and has a contrast and one blurred in which obviate the transition in post-production. The focus is fast and precise, no distosioni and vignetting. qualitative perspective is worthy of the good times that were robust, with metal lens hood, gives the impression of eternity. |
 | sent on August 26, 2013 Pros: Yield wonderful, clear where it is needed but with a very pleasant blur. Robust, although it is rather small and manageable. Cons: Flare, made against the light. Opinion: Perfect as a portrait lens. rnNitido where it needs to be, and with a blur that looks like a cream. rnOttima build quality ... by a great feeling of strength, although it is rather small and a lot leggero.rnSoffre the flare, so if the light is a problem is almost mandatory to use the lens hood. Lens hood which among other things (being screw) although it has the advantage of robustness is to use in my opinion more cumbersome than other solutions. |
 | sent on March 17, 2013 Pros: Excellent quality / price ratio for optical performance and construction, good sharpness at room temperature (subjective); Great blurred (subjective); Hood metallic screw; Cons: To be picky, it loses contrast backlit Opinion: The use of this format and DX are not able to find him flaws, but just using it lately, I do not want to separate! Worth all the money it costs, for f4/f5.6 the definition is excellent and, subjectively, I love its contrasts and its colors, to me different from the new AF-s.rnSi could improve anything in terms of construction materials, but they are still good and in line with the prezzo.rnLo focus is great, I can not recommend it. |
 | sent on October 02, 2011 Pros: compact, lightweight, hood metal screw, solid construction, af fast, a blur spectacular, crystal clear already from f2.8. quality / price ratio very high, especially in used. Cons: less defined at f1.8. Opinion: Lens compact, the queen of portraits, has a fuzzy creamy, soft, I would say that only 1 .4 does best. certainly, the depth of field is minimum at RT, to handle .. I use it on fx and perhaps in some cases a short hair (there are also 105, 135 and 180 of the same family), but you can but the portrait is in the foreground full length, taking a step forward and one step back . I would say almost dedicated to portraits, it is very soft and has a fuzzy lovable .. quality / price ratio especially in used really interesting. to have! |
