Portrait prime for Nikon F-mount

The Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 Series II is a manual-focus prime lens built for Nikon F-mount cameras. Its wide f/1.4 aperture and nine-blade diaphragm create shallow depth of field and smooth background blur suited to portrait and low-light photography. The optical formula uses nine elements in seven groups including a hybrid aspherical element and Ultra Multi-Coating to reduce flare and chromatic aberration. A minimum focus distance of 3.6 feet with 0.09x magnification allows close-up detail work.

AE chip and de-click ring change exposure control

The integrated AE chip enables electronic aperture confirmation and metering communication with compatible Nikon bodies, so the camera can display the selected f-stop and record it in EXIF data. A dedicated de-click switch on the aperture ring toggles between clicked stops for stills and a stepless free rotation for video, allowing smooth exposure transitions during recording without visible steps or mechanical noise.

Verify F-mount compatibility

This lens mounts only on Nikon F-mount cameras; Z-mount bodies require an FTZ adapter which is not included. Autofocus is not available, so confirm your camera supports focus peaking, electronic rangefinder indication or a split-prism screen for accurate manual focusing. The weather-sealed barrel resists dust and moisture but the mount itself is not sealed; use a protective filter in harsh conditions.

Questions about this item

Does the aperture ring need periodic adjustment to stay accurate?

The de-click ring switches between click and free positions without tools, so no routine recalibration is required.

What stops me from shooting wide open all day?

The f/1.4 maximum aperture is the physical limit; depth of field becomes very shallow and focus precision is critical at that setting.

How hot does the barrel get during a long portrait session?

Weather sealing keeps moisture out but does not trap heat; the all-metal barrel dissipates warmth normally during extended use.
