Nikon AF Nikkor 85mm f/1.4D - Nikon F Mount

The AF Nikkor 85mm f/1.4D is a legendary portrait lens known for its "cream machine" bokeh and solid mechanical build. This lens uses a screw-drive autofocus system, meaning it requires a Nikon DSLR with an internal focus motor to autofocus. It features a Rear Focus (RF) system to maintain performance at close distances and an aperture ring, making it compatible with older film cameras and modern digital bodies alike. Potential buyers should note that the crinkle-finish paint on the metal barrel can show wear over time. SDS checks the AF coupling for wear and ensures the internal Rear Focus mechanism operates without noise or friction. As with many older D-series lenses, internal dust can accumulate, so optics are checked for clarity. The manual/auto focus ring switch should click positively into place without sticking.
