Portrait prime for FX DSLRs

The Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 105mm f/1.4 ED Lens is a fast short-telephoto prime built for FX-format F-mount DSLRs. Its f/1.4 maximum aperture gathers abundant light for low-light shooting and creates extremely shallow depth of field. The 105mm focal length suits portrait and event work where subject separation matters.

Optical design and focus features

Extra-low dispersion glass reduces chromatic aberrations and colour fringing across the frame. A Nano Crystal Coat cuts flare and ghosting when shooting into bright light. The Silent Wave Motor delivers fast, quiet autofocus with full-time manual override. An electromagnetic diaphragm ensures consistent exposure during high-speed continuous shooting.

Suited to portrait and event photographers

Photographers who need a bright 105mm prime for controlled depth of field will benefit from the f/1.4 aperture and corrected optics. Shooters requiring zoom versatility, wider angles, or smaller maximum apertures should consider other lenses. The fixed focal length and large aperture design prioritise image quality over flexibility.

Questions about this item

Will the electromagnetic diaphragm need service or replacement after long use?

The electromagnetic diaphragm is built into the lens barrel and is not a user-serviceable part; if it ever fails the lens would need professional repair rather than a simple component swap.

What limits continuous shooting with this f/1.4 aperture?

Heat buildup in the optical group and the camera’s buffer depth are the first limits you will hit when shooting wide open at 105mm for extended bursts.

How much noise and heat does the Silent Wave Motor produce during all-day portrait sessions?

The Silent Wave Motor runs nearly silently and generates only modest warmth, so the lens stays comfortable to handle even after hours of continuous autofocus operation.
