Your knowledge base on all these types of lenses is incredible 👏 I have followed you for a couple years now and I've always appreciated your deep influences of photography, which convinced me to buy gear and get into photography myself. But unfortunately time got away from me when I got diagnosed with cancer and now all I do is spend every minute with my daughter, my little twin because life is short and never promised 💔 Born and raised in Chicago in Logan Square, I take time with my daughter and show her all the beauty of Chicago and try my best to build as much memories of us together ❤️ I thought of doing a photo shoot or video of some sort of us but never took the next steps to learn. Hopefully one day! 🙏 Thank you for devoting your time and sharing your knowledge and experiences to the world 🌎 Blessings to you brother 🙏

Thank you Manny for that insightful, and thought through preview of this lens. I think you made some excellent observations and comparisons and did justice to both Nikon and Canon on this one. I am a Nikon guy and have been for over 30 years, and am admittedly biased (a little - I try to stay objective). I think this Nikon lens will be spectacular and I already pre-ordered my copy from NPS this morning. In general, I like that Nikon takes care to go the extra mile with their optics: controlled focus breathing (in the lens - not the body like Sony), more aperture blades (this is subtle, but I think it the right direction for a lens of this type and price), kept the weight down and maintained a great balance in the hands, and kept the lens more silent - the Z lenses are doing the best job of providing high end pro lenses for both stills and video of the three big manufacturers in my opinion - and I have used the Canon system as well. This new Nikon 85mm 1.2 s lens is a shining example of this fact. That said, there are no flies on the Canon version of this lens, and I have no doubt that as a portrait and wedding shooting either would crush the job. Thanks again for your down to earth, common sense approach. -PD

Nikon really needs to reset people's expectations for good imaging equipment. For the past 3-5 years, there has been a singular focus on eye-AF (pun intended). Nikon images look great sooc, so any post work is enhancing rather than 'fixing'. Nikon photographers talk about 'color science' less than C/S because we have to worry about it less. Ergonomically and operationally, these cameras simply work. And the lenses...

Nikon seems to have made their f/1.8 S lenses as good at the f/1.4 G lenses, fulfilling your "small size with great quality" wish. It's likely that the next expensive (over $2k) Z lens will be the 35mm f/1.2, but that will be as big as the 50mm and 85mm f/1.2 lenses. I think you'll get your lens when Nikon uses the Tamron design for it, or lets Tamron make those Z lenses.

Thanks Manny for it! What about focus breathing? My strenght are parades and there were many reason for chosing Z system for it. Sealed body (For heavy rain and salty air), no overheating issues (I do video 4K with Z9 and Z6II), no focus breathing is somelike key cause I compose close and away within 2 shots simultaneasly, Balanced system (no injuries on arm). All this at extreme low light conditions where I use ISo 2000 to 12500. Thousands of people pass through me and my focussing accuraccy is higher than 90%. A whole month of february at full action. Was imposible to to this with R5 and R6, they just shut down. So everytime I hear complain on Nikon, my experience as a professional photographer differs like you say.

According to Ricci Talks and Adorama this lens has no focus breathing. This is also important if you want to stack several images together with focus stacking. Thanks for your feedback. We need more people like you and not some KZbin guys that work mainly with Canon and Sony gear and have no experience with Nikon at all. By the way: Is the Canon R5 still overheating? This was a main issue with that camera on video recording. Just see how Canon has fixed this with the additional R5C model by applying a huge fan with lot of ventilation holes on the body.

As a Nikon/Canon shooter I completely agree with you. Canon lenses are noisy, but take excellent pictures. Nikon lenses are almost dead quiet and take excellent pictures. The auto-focus does miss occasionally with shooting basketball for example, but it has such a high frame rate that it makes it kind of a moot point. Thanks for showing Nikon some love with an unbiased review.

I think the thing with the Canon RF f/1.2L glass (50mm and 85mm) is that they have some really hefty glass inside and some of that is moving while focusing. Canon has a better focusing system already (Nano USM) that they use in other lenses, but for those two, I think the focusing element(s?) are just so big that they had to use the older conventional USM focus motors. The RF 24-70 f/2.8L focuses much faster and quieter than the 50mm prime, but its aperture just isn't as big.

You should spend your time testing the lens and not constantly comparing it to Sony and Canon. It's called a Nikon review. Just review the lens for Nikon shooters... We Nikon shooters only need to compare it to the 85mm 1.8s

Speaking of 85mm, for Fuji shooters... GF 110mm f/2 is the ONE!! For Fuji X, well everyone is lusting on the new Viltrox 75mm f/1.2!! 🥵

I would like to see a comparison with the 105 1.4 f mount yes its not a z mount but to see if its worth to finally let my 105mm go

It is the second review that I see of the Nikon 1.2 and my order is in. What I saw in the Canon vs Nikon is that the Nikon is more flattering. It is as if the Canon adds a pound or so to a portrait. Biased? 😊

Thank you for mentioning it to nikon for all of us that are still waiting on camera upgrades. I shoot z7ii and I can't rely on auto focus when you have subject moving in or out and especially when back-lit. Been shooting nikon 20 years, 85mm is my favorite focal distance but until I see what z6iii or z7iii does I won't get this 85.

Hey Manny, I need your help. I bought an Atamos for my Nikon Z9. How do you record the evf while shooting pictures. Every time, after I shoot 2 pictures, the Atamos stops recording. How can I make the Atamos continually record the evf even if I shoot 100 pictures ??? Thanks man!😀
