Portrait prime for Nikon F mount

The Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 AF lens is a bright prime designed for Nikon F-mount cameras. It covers full-frame (FX) sensors at its native 85 mm focal length and provides a 127.5 mm equivalent field of view on APS-C bodies. The optical formula uses nine elements in seven groups with Ultra Multi-Coating to control flare and ghosting. A Hybrid Aspherical element helps reduce aberrations while keeping the design compact.

Compatibility check

Verify that your camera uses the Nikon F mount and that it supports autofocus with lenses driven by Linear Ultrasonic Motors. The lens offers an AF/MF switch for quick focus-mode changes and relies on a single internal focusing group. Weather sealing is included, so confirm your body shares a similar level of environmental protection if you shoot in harsh conditions. The maximum aperture is f/1.4.

Portrait and low-light specialists

Photographers who need a fast, short-telephoto prime for portrait work and low-light shooting will benefit from the wide aperture and quiet autofocus. Videographers requiring smooth, silent focus pulls can also use the LSM-driven system. Shooters who need zoom flexibility, built-in image stabilisation, or a wider angle of view should consider other lens types.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 AF lens and what must I buy separately?

The lens ships with front and rear caps and a lens hood; filters, a protective pouch and a tripod collar are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose this 85mm f/1.4 version or a different focal length for my Nikon F camera?

This 85mm f/1.4 is built for full-frame Nikon F bodies and also works on APS-C models where it gives a 127.5mm equivalent field of view; pick it when you want a fast portrait prime rather than a zoom or wider prime.

What does the f/1.4 maximum aperture actually deliver when the lens is mounted on a real camera?

At f/1.4 the lens gathers four times more light than an f/2.8 optic, enabling shallow depth of field for subject isolation and usable shutter speeds in dim conditions on both FX and DX Nikon bodies.
