Among photo and video pros shooting portraiture, weddings, maternity, high fashion and boudoir, the NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.2 S is bound to become a legend. Breathtaking realism with dreamlike depth. Backgrounds that melt away into a soft bokeh. Beautifully flattering compression. Autofocus you can trust with once-in-a-lifetime moments.
Cherished focal length.
With its flattering slimming effect, intimate yet comfortable working distance and light telephoto compression, an 85mm prime is ideal for capturing authentic human expression.
Striking background separation.
The combination of the paper-thin f/1.2 plane of focus, the flattering perspective compression of 85mm and the intense sharpness of this lens create a three-dimensional effect that immediately commands attention.
Bokeh beyond belief.
The fast f/1.2 aperture is shaped by 11 rounded blades, more than most lenses, for smoother, rounder, more natural blur. At f/2, point light sources transform into dreamlike orbs and out of focus areas dissolve into a painterly haze.
Low-light freedom.
Nikon’s larger Z mount increases the light gathering performance of the f/1.2 aperture, flooding the image sensor with light and allowing you to shoot in near darkness.
Embrace backlighting.
Natural backlighting like sunsets can create some of the most glamorous. dramatic shots—especially at weddings. Nikon’s Nano Crystal Coat (N) offers extraordinary tolerance to backlighting, glare and flare, while Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) and Aspherical Lens Elements (AS) prevent color fringing and aberration.

Can't fault this one!
Outstanding lens! Mounted to my Z8, it grabs focus right now. I have fewer discards than ever. The lens is especially useful for what I do (indoor low light hula competitions) like no other. The large aperture allows me to pick up 2-3 stops on the ISO dial, with the attendant improvement in IQ. On a 45mp sensor camera, large crops are possible. Why shoot at F2.8 or 4 when 1.4 allows 2 stops gain in ISO? It's a little big, but so am I. I did encounter a situation when I captured one eye in focus, but the other was totally blotto. Gotta pay attention to the details!

Makes an amateur look decent
I'm just an amateur hobbyist, but figured it wouldn't let equipment limit my learning curve, so I've splurged more than any hobbyist should on this (and other Z lenses). Regardless, this lens has made me not want to put my Z8 down. Sharp, fast, and AMAZING in low light.
