I really wanted this lens, but it wasn’t out when I bought the 85 1.8s. And…I’m not selling portraits so it’s hard to justify spending nearly $3k for a lens to satisfy my hobby.
No doubt, this lens is spectacular, if funds permits. For me, for perspective, I still prefer the focal lenght of my F 104 1.4 more. I do hope Nikon create a new 105mm in the future. Something about the look for head shots between 85 and the 105, I opt for the latter. Had I not owned the F 105, then without question, this new 85 f 1.2 will the one I select, together with its 50 f 1.2 sibling. Subject isolation is spot on, and you could fiddle with adjustments in Lightroom as well. That is where the trade off is. Well done Nikon
Love it... got the 1st piece in Bengal...and never regretted buying it( although all my fellow photographers tried to convince me not to buy this lens at such a high price mark) It's always on my z8... For wedding and fashion it's unreal... never going back to 1.4 or 1.8 😂
Star Pictures - dude - we are considering changing ship fro Hass X1D (x2) to Nikon Z8 - we already have the Profoto protocols for Nikon as they are the same as Hasselblad - the trouble is the Hass is a little slow here and there and lens choice is minimal - this Nikon 851.2 might swing it - and no we don't like Fuji -GFX great if you don't like colour - our only concern is that Hass is simples - DSLR's are so stupidly complex to operate without fiddling all the time
Saurav, a specific question to you You used a 70-200 2.8 lens for quite some time and in one of your video, you mentioned that the reason to use this lens at 200mm with 2.8, the DOF and compression makes a big difference. Now comparing a portrait photo at 200 2.8 with 85 1.2, what do you feel about it? Is it a real game changer?
And here i am happy with my 50mm 1.8 😂😊
us broo ...us ❤❤😁😁😁

Up until I saw your video I had successfully resisted this lens. Now I have much to ponder.
Haha! You will definitely enjoy it

great video, do you prefer the z8 or z9?

For portraits, I prefer the look of 85 over 200. Way less distortion at 85mm and looks more natural
Thanks. Have you got a chance to look at the 138 1.8? Or do you think 85 is more suitable than a 135?
@@ACubePhotos I haven’t personally used the lens. I would still be inclined towards the 85mm 1.2.
Is the pictures edited or same as taken in camera
I m waiting for Sony 85mm f1.2
Audio quality at the beginning of the video was quite poor i almost skipped to next........Glad i didn't, great review.
now nikon can make 1.2 primes for it cinema red cameras
What lens is your video?
Sir camera name plz
I got 85mm 1.8G. But i miss focus sometimes with the auto focus turned on. Any tips how to avoid that and how to always focus correctly??
What camera, What light level (ISO, 1/ sec, f/nr) What distance,What AF Mode & settings, Do recompose after acquiring focus or do you use continuous?
Indians really love Nikon camera
This camera model?
Price ?
vedo for camera life
I should sell my kidney for that lens lmaon
Meanwhile i am using TTArtisan 50mm f2 😂😂
You should start filming fitness videos from now I think.
I get better results with my 105 F1.4
Too bad it's not 'made in Japan' for $2800 the sony and canon are........
❤❤❤
Out of my price range.

It's 2023 & you are still using A Potato that's the biggest disapointment. Change The Channel name to Potato Sinha. Halka Moja Korlam LOL.
