Nikon PC-E Micro-NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D
Why we recommend this ▼
The 85mm focal length combined with +/- 8.5° tilt and +/- 11.5mm shift provides precise perspective and focus plane control for full-frame F-mount bodies. Its Nano Crystal Coating suppresses flare while the 1:2 macro capability and 390mm minimum focus distance enable detailed close-up work without distortion. This manual focus lens is best for product and tabletop photographers who need to correct converging lines and control depth of field in-camera.
