The Nikon F-mount Planar T* 85mm f/1.4 ZF.2 from ZEISS is a quintessential portrait-length prime lens that serves as a short telephoto option, perfectly suited for creating shallow depth of field effects and emphasizing the subject. In addition to providing enhanced control over depth of field, the bright f/1.4 maximum aperture performs exceptionally well in challenging lighting conditions, making it ideal for handheld shooting in low-light environments. The Planar optical design is a well-established configuration that consistently delivers high sharpness across the entire focusing range, ensuring even illumination throughout the aperture settings. Furthermore, individual lens elements are treated with a T* anti-reflective coating to minimize lens flare and ghosting, thereby enhancing contrast and color fidelity.

• Prime portrait-length lens is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras, however can also be used with DX models where it provides a 127.5mm equivalent focal length.
  
  
• Fast f/1.4 maximum aperture affords extensive control over depth of field for achieving selective focus effects and also benefits working in low-light conditions.
  
  
• Planar optical design affords high sharpness and consistent performance throughout the focusing range to suit photographing at a wide range of imaging scales.
  
  
• ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating has been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections and provide greater contrast and color fidelity.
  
  
• Manual focus design enables a minimum focusing distance of 3.3'.
