The following is a Rebecca West Quote.
"Any authentic work of art, must start an argument, between the artist and his audience."
Must Read
"Photographic art overlaps with the landscape, portraiture, and other photography types. It is defined by the artist's vision and approach to get distinct photographs. Unlike other forms of photography, fine art photography is about capturing what the artist sees instead of what the camera sees. It is just another tool for artists to produce their art."

fine art photography, also known as “photography art,” or “artistic photography” is photographic artwork created in line with the artist's vision. Fine artists use photography as their chosen medium for creative expression #youtube #youtubeshorts #howto #review #unboxing #nikon #photo #lens #85mm #pro #nikkor
The Nikon AF NIKKOR 85mm f/1.4D is a medium-telephoto prime lens that's known for its sharp detail, shallow depth of field, and flattering angle of view. It's a popular choice for portrait photography, but it can also be used for low-light shooting or to capture performances. Here are some of its features:
Focal length: The 85 mm focal length is considered ideal for portraits taken with a 35 mm SLR camera.
Aperture: The fast f/1.4 aperture is useful for shooting in low light or for indoor sports and stage productions.
Optical design: The lens produces high contrast, true color reproduction, and razor-sharp detail.
Internal focusing: The lens has internal focusing for fast autofocus operation.
Rounded diaphragm: The rounded diaphragm makes out-of-focus elements appear more natural.
Build: The lens has a solid metal housing with a brushed finish that provides slip resistance.
Focus modes: The focus modes are changed with a plastic ring around the lens, and a small metal button switches between manual and auto

Thank-you for making great videos with nice & well thought out content.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

My pleasure!

[@bradleytrick3622]

I agree with everything you said! I have many Nikon lenses and this lens is the game changer lens that will make the picture that you take look incredible from anything else. I recall once using this lens with a beautiful model who commented to me as to why my pictures looked so much better than the other photographers pictures. I had to be honest and said I have to give credit to this lens. Thanks for confirming this with this video.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Hey, im glad you also love this masterpiece of glass 👍

[@tripsvietnam]

Nice & clearly reviews for this lens Thankfully & Subscribed 🎉

[@izziereal2010]

I was choosing between the 85mm f1.4D and the 85mm f1.4G lens. In the end, I chosed the 1.4D. It is a beautiful lens to use and the pictures using this lens are outstanding. I also now have the Nikon Df. With this lens, I can change the aperture with the aperture ring manually as well as the camera with its physical manual dials. I'm very happy with the 85mm f1.4D.

[@buselakeju]

Thank you for the great video! It helps me to make decision :) I am on the way to test this lens for my FX and d500DX cams.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Thank you very much :)

[@Texan747]

Inspiring! Great video. I am getting my camera and getting outside this beautiful Sunday afternoon with my Nikon 85mm f1.8 lens. Thank you, Mr. Taverna,!

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Hello, awesome. You get out there and start shooting photos :)

[@albertjimenez7896]

The Nikon 85mm f1.4D Nikkor lens has some of the best contrast and color saturation, especially for black and white photography.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

That lens is just great. Thank you for watching my channel.

[@zackchoy1969]

Thanks for the recommendation. I am choosing between the AF-D or the AI-S version of the 85mm f/1,4.

[@atrbear]

Thanks Carmine for your helpful videos, Ted

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Hey, Thank you so much, great to hear from a subscriber :)

[@xeniastarzynska1996]

I have this lens , is very good from 1,4 in B&W , made like a Tank , internal AF ( nothing moving from outside ) is great . I had opened and cleaned inside fungus myself (chip from Japan)

[@terrygoyan]

Your comments about purchasing from Japanese E-bay sellers are very true, with a couple of caveats. Look closely at the photos of the lenses. I've seen a few that are advertised as Mint+++++, but the photos clearly tell another story. I interpret a mint rating as meaning like new. Something else to be aware of is Nikons early AFS lenses can develop problems with their focus motors, especially if unused for a period of time. Hence, a lens that has a snappy aperture, no dust and no fungus, or separation of elements, can still have problems. I'm lucky as there is a local camera store that buys and sells used lenses and cameras. Sooner or later just about every lens Nikon has ever made comes through there. Including some extreme rarities! What's great is having the ability to handle the gear before purchasing it. I just picked up a very nice 85 f/1.4 d lens for $395.00. I really am looking forward to comparing it to my 135 f/2 DC lens. Both are famous bokeh monsters. Love your street photography! Thanks for sharing......

Thanks for video, agree with you on only buying gear from Japan, always has been a great buying experience and trusted! thanks for mentioning lens hood number, I ordered a brand new original Nikon box lens hood with my copy of 85mm f/1.4 D from my favorite Japanese seller. It seems that the stunning sharpness and bokeh in that 85mm f/1.4 D is similar to the 28mm f/1.4 D. I guess I'll find out. Love these vintage Nikon lenses on F2AS, D850 with AF. I can still use on new mirrorless bodies with FTZ adapter but without AF.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Thank you so much for watching my video :)

[@ccmassis]

Carmine, can't wait the review of the nifty fifty or 35mm.🙂

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Nikon 50mm f1.4 video, done :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHOVZnmgpMmgq9k

[@greenmashedpotato]

I’m currently using a D7200 for wildlife stuff, also do cosplay photos with a 35mm 1.8dx. Planning on getting a fullframe(non Z body, probably a second hand D4s or D750 or other fx body, depending on the price then)in a year or two, Not sure if i should get this lens($375) or the 50mm f1.4D($116)? Kinda scared that the crop factor might be too tight since i am currently on a dx body.

What Nikon hard case fit this lens w/ hood? I only ever had the Nikon canvas soft padded case.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

I keep my lens in this hard shell case... www.pelican.com/us/en/product/cases/protector/1300?sku=1300-000-110&gclid=Cj0KCQjwz6ShBhCMARIsAH9A0qVbNrKq7N1ENlTF9IZ81I-i4b5zvRtD6qzCL_Vn-i2pSM5NcX2yT2MaAhXGEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

What do you think about Rokinon 85mm 1.4 AF lens?

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

I plan on purchasing it this month, I hear it's awesome.

[@Ebenzification]

Sir, please help me to decide between Nikon 85mm f1.8g and 85mm f1.4D. Thank you.

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Hello, The best answer for you is found here: myimagez.com/blog/2015/6/nikon_85mm_review

[@mobilography6786]

Great lens I've 85mm f1.8 in mint condition, purchased that for only $60 from a pawn shop.😅👍 PS In this episode your sound keeps going up and down with the slides display. It need to be sorted please.😊

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Hello, and thank you for watching my channel. That lens you have, the 85mm f1.8 is very good, great contrast...as far as the sound goes..my wife says I have a face fit for radio..be well

[@khanscombe619]

Beautiful lens. It was my 1st of a pro glass on an F4E. Amazing Low light for Slide film indoors soft fill flash. There's sharper that came later but this has that creamy smooth character. It was still over 1000 quid bk then as well

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Yes, truly amazing glass from Nikon.

[@nipinderbhogal8340]

Hi will this work on ftz adapter? On my nikon z7?

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Yes it will

[@nipinderbhogal8340]

I just realized the auto focus will not work

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Manual focus will work, you'll be 👍 ok

[@jayskinner4101]

Did the Hood Come With the lens

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

Hello, great question, yes it did. 😀

[@secarr09]

I thought that the Nikon 85mm 1.8 g was slightly sharper and for a fraction of the price?

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

I thought the same thing, until I tried both.
