Viltrox AF 85mm f/2 EVO Lens Nikon Z

Product Description

Create natural-looking portraits with smooth background separation using the Viltrox AF 85mm f/2 EVO Lens for Nikon Z. Designed for full-frame Nikon Z cameras, this compact portrait prime combines the classic 85mm focal length with a bright f/2 aperture, making it well suited to portraits, weddings, lifestyle photography, street details, and low-light scenes. At approximately 360g, the lens offers a practical balance between portability and optical performance.

The optical design uses 10 elements in 8 groups, including two ED and two HR elements, helping control chromatic aberration while maintaining sharp rendering across the frame. Viltrox specifies strong image detail even at the maximum f/2 aperture, while the nine-blade diaphragm helps create smooth, natural-looking background blur.

An STM + lead-screw autofocus system provides fast, precise focusing with face and eye detection support on compatible Nikon Z cameras. The lens focuses as close as 0.74m and provides 0.13x maximum magnification, giving additional flexibility for tighter portraits and detail shots. A customizable Fn button, click/de-click aperture switch, AF/MF switch, 58mm filter thread, USB-C firmware port, and rubber-sealed mount further support hybrid creators and everyday outdoor shooting.
