[QUOTE="stmv, post: 107149, member: 10038"] [b]re: Nikon 85mm 1.8g, "Best 85mm in Database"[/b] Impressive,, Also explains why soon the 85 1.8D AF will soon be not available.. but... the 85 1.8 D is on sale now for 459 dollars from around 600, this is a bargain price, about 40 dollars less than the G.. why D you say versus G... well.. The D is built tougher, was made in Japan (very consistant quality on this lens) 9 bladed aperature that produces wonderful starburst.. (I still like star bursts). and just about as sharp.. I am glad that Nikon has beat the sharpness of the D (slightly),, less glad they gone with of the 7 blades (to save money), and not as tough.. but still,, a solid winner,, on the otherhand, for those that one the old version,, BETTER HURRY, I wager that they will be all sold out very very soon,,, I use my 85 D most of the time at this range, and when I reall really want the creamy bokeh, I used an ancient 85 mm 1.4 AIS (such a beautiful lens).
