Klaus, the vivitar version does not have a coupling and camera, while the Samyang has it. It can be used on apperture mode with Nikon. I will check today with adorma whethed the other "brands" are made with coupling.

Boris,
You have to check the version type. Samyang announced the AE version of the 85 F/1.4 for Nikon a while ago, an upgrade to the older, non-coupled version. Anybody selling you the non-AE version under any brand name is essentially selling you the old version of this lens. The AE-version is available worldwide already for several months.
HTH, kind regards, Wim
