85mm f1.8 Portrait Lens - F Lens for Nikon, Manual Focus (MF) for Nikon D3500 D850 D7500 D5600 D3400 D500 D7200 D5500 D750 D810 D3300 D5300 D610 D7100 D5200 D600 D3200 etc (D-Series)

I ordered this ab a week ago. It came in the mail in 3 days really fast! The box was pretty damaged but the lense was wrapped pretty good in bubble wrap. Yoy had to switch some settings for your camera because it's Manual. The lense did come a little loose but the screw just needed tightning thats all. Amazing comstomer service. Great work to them for reaching out, helping me set everything up, being pacient and send a $10 refund for the loose part of the lense. I say its a great start!

I am only an amateur photographer and I was really apprehensive about trying a fully manual lens on my Canon EOS X7, but amazingly, I got some incredibly sharp photos the very first time out! I’m really impressed with this lens and think I may find myself using it even more than I anticipated. The build is a bit lighter than I had wished, but for under $100, I’d say you can’t go wrong with this 85mm prime lens.

Great lens addition to my collection i love the way it operates and it was a good price

Maybe I read something incorrectly, but I was not expecting a used product. Upon opening the package, the canon box itself was ripped open, the lens caps were not secure allowing dust to get everywhere on the lens itself, and the base is all scratched up and has a decent amount of wear & tear. I intentionally tried to stay as far away from used & refurbished for this purchase, so I’m very bummed out. I understand this was a budget friendly price, but the product description is very misleading.

A must for camera buffs

Lens works as described (manual lens, attach with "release without lens" function). I used it in CanonRP and SonyA6000 with adaptors. I have been taking photograph as a serious enthusiast for over 30 years. I bought it out of confusion, actually. Before returning it without opening it, I decided to give it a try, and it is a definite keeper. The lens renders simply incredible portraits. Above 3.0 aperture value, it is superb. Incredible Bokeh with beautiful skin tone rendering and perfect background color rendering as well. I used it in portraits with lots of gray, blue and reddish brown colors and it is simply superb. I also tested it at full aperture, in dark gym for basketball game, and it did not perform well. It is a portrait lens, with ability to take also flowers, and plants, everything that requires beautiful character and subject background separation. It is a great complement to your existing collection if you have already wide angle lenses and zooms, and want to add an affordable portrait dedicated lens. I am pleased with the lens.

Would recommend just saving up for a 35 or 55mm autofocus. This lens was very sensitive to humidity, colors are not as great. In a pinch, this can do the job, but a 35 or 50mm with autofocus isn't much more used.

Eh. Lens is okay. I made the mistake of purchasing an off brand one so automatic focus is not available. I also noticed this lens tends to add a soft effect on the photos.
