Nikon NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S Lens

Renowned for its portrait capabilities, the NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.8 S lens from Nikon is a short-telephoto prime that boasts an appealing focal length and a bright f/1.8 aperture. This maximum aperture provides an optimal balance of size, weight, and speed, making it suitable for challenging lighting conditions while remaining compact enough for handheld shooting. The optical design incorporates two extra-low dispersion elements, which effectively minimize color fringing and chromatic aberrations, ensuring exceptional clarity and color accuracy. Furthermore, the lens is equipped with both Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings to mitigate flare and ghosting, enhancing color fidelity and contrast.

In addition to its optical features, the lens includes a multi-focus system that utilizes two stepping motors, delivering remarkably fast, precise, and quiet autofocus performance. It also offers full-time manual focus override, catering to the requirements of both photography and videography. Moreover, a programmable control ring allows for intuitive adjustments across various camera and exposure settings.

• Prime portrait-length lens is designed for FX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras.
  
  
• Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus.
  
  
• Two extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce greater clarity and color rendering.
  
  
• A Nano Crystal Coat, along with a Super Integrated Coating, has been applied to lens elements to minimize surface and internal reflections for a marked reduction in lens flare and ghosting.
  
  
• The multi-focus system features two distinct autofocus drive units that operate in synchronization, providing exceptionally rapid and precise focusing capabilities. This system employs stepping motors, which ensure remarkably smooth and silent autofocus performance, making it ideal for both photography and videography. Additionally, full-time manual focus override is available, and the internal focusing design allows only the internal lens groups to shift during focusing, thereby preserving the lens's overall length during operation and enhancing focusing speed.
  
  
• Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus, but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.
  
  
• Specialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates.
  
  
• Dust- and moisture-resistant lens barrel benefits the lens' use in inclement conditions.
