The Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 II for Nikon Z is a refined portrait lens, designed with a slimmer and lighter body than its predecessor while maintaining strong optical performance. The classic 85mm focal length paired with a bright f/1.8 aperture makes it ideal for isolating subjects with shallow depth of field and soft background separation.
A quiet STM autofocus motor ensures smooth and accurate focusing for both stills and video, while advanced optical elements help maintain clarity and reduce aberrations across the frame.
