Quote:If it was 3 years ago from now, the AF-S 85/1.8 G is the best value for Nikon 85 mm imho. A bit sharper than the AF-S 85/1.4 G and much more affordable. Today, I wait for a 85/1.4 Art to replace my 85. No matter if Klaus finds it hot or cool ^_^The AF-S 85mm F1.4G is 1,354 euros! IMHO it"s a ridiculous price for what it is, the AF-S 85mm F1.8G is almost a thousand euros less......like, what the..???
Even the AF-D F1.4 goes for 600 S/H and it's less sharp than the F1.8!
As I say I am tempted to stump up for the AF-S 1.8G.... I just kinda got used to picking up 150-200 euro AF-Ds some with filters and hoods.
Love the sharpness of the Art range, but they're big, not cheap and heavy...... and I'm small, cheap and light!
I'm scouring "le bon coin" site!
