Portrait lens with f/1.4 aperture

This Nikon AF-S prime lens has an 85 mm focal length and a maximum aperture of f/1.4. Nano Crystal Coat reduces ghosting and flare across a broad wavelength range. Internal focusing provides fast, quiet autofocus and the focal length decreases as the focus distance shortens. The closest focusing distance is 0.85 m.

Suited to portrait and low-light photographers

The fast f/1.4 aperture creates a bright viewfinder image and smooth background blur for portrait work. It covers both FX and DX formats with edge-to-edge sharpness. Photographers who need zoom flexibility or a wider angle of view should consider a different lens type.

Check mount and focus requirements

Confirm your camera body uses the Nikon F mount and supports AF-S autofocus motors. Verify that the 0.85 m minimum focus distance meets your working distance needs. Ensure you accept that focal length shortens when focusing closer than infinity.

Questions about this item

Which Nikon camera bodies accept the 85 mm f/1.4G AF-S lens?

The lens mounts on any Nikon F-mount body — both FX full-frame and DX APS-C cameras — and autofocus works on models with a built-in focus motor.

Will the lens autofocus on an older Nikon body that lacks an internal focus motor?

Yes, the AF-S motor inside the lens drives autofocus on every F-mount camera, including entry-level bodies without a screw-drive motor.

How can I verify the lens is focusing correctly after mounting it?

Set the M/A switch to A, half-press the shutter and confirm the focus indicator lights; the closest focus distance is 0.85 m and the scale runs from 3 ft to infinity.
