Nikon's finest value portrait prime for F-mount — the AF-S 85mm f/1.8G delivers stunning subject separation at a price well below the f/1.4 version, with sharpness that rivals it from f/2.8 upwards. On the D850 it provides the classic 85mm full-frame portrait perspective; on the D7500 it reaches a compressed 127mm equivalent, ideal for tighter headshots. Silent Wave Motor autofocus is fast and accurate for portraiture. Works on all Nikon FX and DX F-mount bodies.
