Excellent
Excellent lens. Fast and Low light, feel small and bit short than my 85 1.4g. Quality is excellent. 85 1.4g is much bokeh because of 1.4 but almost same in the naked eye. The only thing i like is there are no purple pringing in the backlit not like 85 1.4g. So if u have existing 1.4 and purple pringing is not an issue to you, no need to buy.

Professional quality on a budget !
Insane sharpness and image. Must buy lens. Focal length is great for portraits. Tight in indoors. Minimum focus distance is terrible. Sharpness and details throughout the image from centre to corner is great. Excellent smooth bokeh. Dust magnet focus ring. Boring design. Good colour (accurate but not punchy) and contrast. Better than 50mm f1.8 for portraits. Not versatile like 50mm 1.8 due to focal length. No regrets in choosing 85 over 50. Will buy a 35mm 1.8/1.4 for indoor and wider shots in future. Uploaded sample 1 is jpeg straight out of camera, sample 2 is lightroom edited, sample 3 is same image cropped. Took on Nikon Z5 at f1.8

Stunning Sharpness and Beautiful Bokeh
I’ve been very happy with this lens. The sharpness is excellent, autofocus is fast and reliable, and the background blur is beautiful and creamy. I use it not only for portraits, but also for fine-art detail work, and it renders subjects with a soft, elegant separation that makes images feel almost three-dimensional. My attached photo shows how beautifully it handles glass, reflections, and depth. Build quality feels solid, and the f/1.8 is plenty fast for low light. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a versatile prime lens.

Amazing portrait lens - well worth the $
Excellent portrait lens which I reach for over and over. I've captured stunning images with this lens on a Z5 and then my upgrade - a Z8. Essential piece of kit for any Nikon Z Portrait shooters. Highly recommended.
