Meet the new Nikon 105mm F1.4 ED

Meet the new Nikon 105mm F1.4 , the fastest 105mm on the market. Could this be the perfect portrait lens ?

“Through NIKKOR design technology, for the first time ever we’ve been able to produce a lens with a focal length of 105mm and a maximum aperture of f/1.4 that offers photographers mesmerizing portraiture capabilities delivered with a highly accurate diaphragm control for stable auto exposure and reduced chromatic aberration and flare effect,” said James Murray, Director of Sales and Marketing, Nikon Australia. “We know there is a good appetite for this across the photography community and are delighted to introduce the lens to the market.”

The new autofocus lens with a focal length of 105mm and a maximum aperture of f/1.4, makes the most of optimal compression effects and is developed based on the design concept of “three-dimensional high fidelity” where the constructional design of the lens makes three-dimensional subjects appear more life-like in two-dimensional photographs. In addition, the lens also facilitates large and beautiful bokeh characteristics that provide smooth alteration of bokeh as the distance from the focus plane increases. These characteristics enable rendering with a natural sense of depth in portraits and images of still objects.

Stay tuned for ETA, we can’t wait to put this one through its paces.
