Sharpness From Life Size to Infinity

The compact AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR is ideal for extreme close-up and general photography. Discover a world of unseen detail with stunning sharpness and beautiful background bokeh in close-up, nature, portrait and general photography applications.

Vibration Reduction

Nikon VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization provides 3.0 stops* of blur free handheld shooting, assuring dramatically sharper still images and HD video capture. This essentially minimizes image blur caused by camera shake and remarkably expands your freedom during hand-held shooting.

ED Glass Elements

Optimized for DX-format cameras, the AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR delivers exceptional images, reproducing every detail in true-to-life brilliance. Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements provide superior sharpness and color reproduction while Super Integrated Coating (SIC) virtually eliminates ghosting and lens flare.

Silent Wave Motor

For photo taking environments where silence is a must, such as a piano recital, the lens' built-in SWM (Silent Wave Motor) enables quiet AF operation. This is especially useful for the macro image capturing of easily disturbed subjects such as insects and small animals.

Internal Focusing 

The Internal Focusing (IF) system of the Nikon AF-S DX Micro Nikkor 85mm f/3.5G ED VR Lens means the lens barrel length does not change during focusing. This ensures worry-free macro shooting so you can capture images with confidence. 

Manual-priority Autofocus

M/A (manual-priority autofocus) mode on the Nikon AF-S DX Micro Nikkor 85mm f/3.5G ED VR Lens allows for instant switching from autofocus to manual focus by rotating the focus ring, even during AF servo operation. This permits fine focus adjustment without removing your eye from the viewfinder.
