Ready for it! - Nikon AF-S Nikkor 105mm f/1.4E ED !

[rain5533]

Not sure yet. Samples are quite rare still but we should get a lot more from Aug 26th. Actually I'm surprised there aren't more samples out yet. But I have a feeling this will be the new reference portrait prime for Nikon.

Yup, that range can be easily overtake 85mm f1.4.

In previous was 105 DC legend lens.
Actually I'm really surprising of Nikon when they archive to 105mm f1.4 wow.

Any idea why 105 f4?
Ins't better than 105 f2.8 VR micro lens

It's f1.4, not f4

1.4

Very poisoning..
Did you has pre-order?

105mm x2 adapter = 210mm f2.8 should good enough for covering bird shooting range

Check if its compatible... lots of glass in this one, I not sure how much space is on the back.

No need if I want my usual shops here will look after me, but my policy for lenses is I never buy for 3-4 months after its in the field... Camera bodies I will wait 6-8 months. (I'm prob getting the D810 next month... and they will have its replacement by FEB 2017, maybe announced before OCT also! )

Ensures its "bug" free purchase.

Dang.. that's mounted on a D5. I think we can dub it the mini-chubs (chubs being the nickname for the 200mm f2).

So..... any bros pre-order in Sg and any word when it'll arrive in Sg?
