Rollei 85 mm F-1.8 Nikon Z

The Rollei 85mm F-1.8 (Nikon Z) is made for those looking for more than perfect sharpness. For portraits that move without coming across as staged. With creamy bokeh, modern technology and a look that stands out from digital fluidity.
This focal length has everything good portraits need: expression, proximity and natural proportions. It createsëer distance - without losing the moment. The Rollei 85 mm f/1.8 AF delivers not only sharpness, but also depth. Even at full aperture, it creates a gently blurred background.

The new VAF (Full-Frame Autofocus) series is optimised for modern mirrorless cameras with high-resolution sensors. Also compatible with APS-C cameras - but the 85mm lens shows its full potential in full-frame format.
HFT-X coating reduces ghost and flare effects, preserves contrast. Maximum light output, uncompromising contrast and brilliant colours - completely reflection-free. The multilayer HFT-X coating makes the lens your secret weapon for razor-sharp images in all conditions.
Flawless edge reduction (0.5-1 LW) ensures natural contrast and subtle, effective vignetting. 42% less image shadows and flare compared to standard coatings. Ideal for available light, sunsets and harmonious portraits.

The STM motor responds at lightning speed and operates so quietly that even video noise remains clear. The lens allows face and eye tracking, so you can concentrate on the moment.

Full metal body - robust, high-quality - but weighs only 477 grams. Machined aluminium, high-quality anodised. At the same time, the lens weighs just 477 grams - ideal for long shoots, mobile use or use on gimbals.
Optics: 10 elements / 7 groups - 2 ED and 2 HR elements for excellent edge sharpness and minimal chromatic aberration. The optical architecture of the Rollei 85mm f/1.8 AF has been optimised from the ground up for full-frame use - with the aim of fully exploiting sensors with a high resolution of over 60 MP.

2 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements. Reduce chromatic aberrations, especially at high-contrast edges and at large apertures. 2 HR (High Refractive Index) elements. Reduce magenta cast by up to 19%.
Full control, no detours: the AF/MF switch switches directly between autofocus and manual focus - ideal for precise and accurate work. Moreover, the FN button can be freely assigned, e.g. with focus lock or magnifying glass - depending on the camera model. Everything is where it belongs. No searching in menus. No interruptions. No compromises.

Minimum focusing distance of 0.85 m - 0.12x magnification for detailed close-ups. Even small subjects look great: hands, jewellery, textures - captured in rich detail with 0.12x magnification. Ideal for close-ups, product details or documentary still lifes.

USB-C firmware port - Updates in 30 seconds. It couldn't be simpler: connect the lens to your Computer via USB-C, copy the new firmware and start the update. No docking station, no special software, no Camera settings - the updates are completed in 30 seconds.
