Nikon 85mm f/3.5G AF-S DX ED VR Micro Lens

Nikon's AF-S DX Micro 85mm telephoto Lens instigates creativity with sophisticated engineering and layout for close-up images.  The lens was created especially for maximum close-up shooting, yet it's perfectly at home with nature, portraits, and all around photography as well. It can focus as near as 0.9 ft. The lens also has the Nikon VR II (Vibration Reduction) image stabilizer. This provides handheld photography at as much as 4 shutter speeds less than could otherwise be attainable, assuring noticeably sharper photos

This Micro lens lets photographers acquire breathtaking close-up shots using as much as 1:1, life-magnitude reproduction ratios, ensuring that even the most subtle subject detail is faithfully reproduced. The 85mm Micro Nikon lens, combined with Nikon DX APS-C DSLR cameras, delivers an image angle equivalent to about 127.5mm (for the 35mm SLR or FX-format), giving up a natural perception along with a practical and popular lens for subject working distance.

One ED- (Extra-low Dispersion Glass Elements)
a necessary element of the Nikon telephoto lens Nikon engineered Extra-low Dispersion optical glass to facilitate the manufacture of lenses that provide superior color correction and sharpness by diminishing chromatic aberrations

G - labeled after the f-number. All the newer AF lenses, including AF-S and specifically G, are also D. Nikon no longer makes an effort to mark the D. G-lenses contains no aperture ring, therefore aperture may only be electronically controlled by the camera and only autofocus camera bodies featuring function dials have the capacity to control G lenses

Micro-Nikkor
A lens modified for shooting close-ups which encompasses a some sort of focusing mount to expand to 1:2 (for manual focus) or 1:1 (for autofocus) reproduction ratio.

RD- Rounded 9 Blade Diaphragm
Soft-focus images of point light resources create accepted polygonal shapes that mirror the form of the cavity produced by the diaphragm blades.

SWM- Silent Wave Motor
Nikon AF-S engineering is yet one more rationale why professional photographers like Nikon telephoto optical lenses.

VR II Vibration Reduction system
Provides the equivalent of employing a 4 stops faster shutter speed This second generation VR is known as VR II, that was engineered to provide an additional 1-stop improvement over the initial VR
