Nikon 85mm f/1.8G AF-S FX Nikkor Lens - Black, Telephoto, Prime, Compatible with Nikon F Mount - Renewed

I took a chance with this item as most of my gear has been bought new, it’s early days ( it arrived early Well done the seller / sender ) but I am happy enough with the Lens, no marks at all , works perfectly and is a very good product. It arrived early as stated in good boxing ( original ) and packaging. Very Good value, nicely presented , going to enjoy based on use so far. Recommended as comes with guarantees and 30 day return option, this won’t be going back 😉

Wer in Vollformat Porträts fotografieren will, kommt als Normalverdiener bei Nikon nicht um dieses Objektiv herum, das schon bei Offenblende phantastische Ergebnisse liefert. Kaufempfehlung!!!

I have never ordered used or refurbished camera lens but I thought I'd give it a try as I was saving about 10% off a new one. This lens came with front and back lens caps and lens bag, it had no signs of wears or marks on the outside and hit focus on my test shots (Lens seems to work just fine but only time will tell). What I didn't get was the original box or paperwork however it comes with a 90 warranty. So if you are okay with just 90 day warranty and no original box you'll save about 10% getting a "renewed" lens. As for the Nikon 85mm f1.8 Prime Lens, it's great. The bokeh is very good even at higher F-stops so this lens will be an outstanding portrait lens. This is a great lens option if you can't afford the $1400 on the f 1.4 model.

Echt Klasse.

Excellent lens. Sharp, edge-to-edge. Superb contrast. Fast enough for most applications. Versatile focal length, comparable to my old Leica R 90mm f2.0, at a fraction of the cost. The only con is a relatively long minimum focus distance. I shoot full frame and sometimes find myself wanting to pull in tighter than the lens allows.

I’ve never bought a refurbished lens before, but took a chance that it would perform well, and it does! Saved money and got a great product! I don’t do many portraits, but when I do, I wanted the 85mm gold standard lens for this kind of work. The lens is sharp as a tack, and works for me! I know there’s a f1.4, more expensive version available, and I’m sure it’s worth the expense if portraits are your main focus, but I’m happy with this one. I’d recommend Beach Camera to my friends for future purchases.
