From classic head-and shoulder shots to environmental portraits, this mirrorless Nikon Z 85mm F/1.8 S Portrait Prime Lens will portray your subjects with heart-stopping clarity.

Any moment. Remarkable portraits
Intimate settings or big events. Staged shots or candid. This fast Nikon Z 85mm f/1.8 portrait lens offers superb agility. The wide Nikon Z mount enables brilliant detail throughout the frame, even when you shoot with available light. Focusing is fast, and your Nikon Z camera can lock onto your subject’s eye whether they’re alone or a face in a crowd.

Real depth
Bokeh is beautifully natural-looking and smoothly graded to the edges of the frame. Your point of focus is always rendered sharply and highlights are reproduced as gentle points.

Fine detail
Skin tones are natural and edge-to-edge sharpness is superb—even when you shoot wide open. A minimum focus distance of just 0.80 m puts you in control of the frame, from close-up to infinity.

Backlit beauty
No matter the setting, Nikon’s anti-reflective Nano Crystal Coat combats ghosting and flare for greater image clarity. Every component of a scene is perfectly reproduced, even in backlit conditions.

Character driven
Shoot video footage with beautifully shallow depth of field. Whether it’s an emotional close-up or a night scene rich with bokeh, this 85mm lens lets you isolate subjects beautifully. Near-silent AF lets the quietest moment shine. The silent control ring lets you pull focus with absolute precision. Focus breathing is all but eliminated.
