Nikon 2195 Report
Nikon 2195 Review by Trevor W. (San Diego, CA)
I'll echo a lot of the same accolades you'll see here in other reviews. This lens is super sharp, fast focusing and renders out of focus elements (bokeh) beautifully. I was using either the 24-70 2.8G or the 70-200 2.8G VRII for portraits but this lens has definitely become my new favorite.
Nikon 2195 Review by Zayil
This professional lens will amaze you right out the box. The Bokeh quality is stunning and beyond 3D. But what is even more amazing is the Sharpness that it produces at f/ 1.4. Wanting this lens with VR would be ridiculous once used and shot around. You really can't criticize the MSRP of this lens, its optics are more than worth it. Yes, this lens is for the photographer that wants and needs the very best, day in and day out and who understands that the weight, cost and skill needed to handle this lens is only natural in this masterpiece of a lens.
Nikon 2195 Review by M. Billon (France)
I bought this lens about 5 months ago, so I had time to do a lot of shots with it.
On 85mm prime, I previously owned both Nikkor 85mm f/1.8D and 1.4D.
Whether the f/1.4 both D and G are really better than the f/1.8D, clearly yes. And I'm not trying to justify the huge knock I took when I bought the f/1.4, nor that I am trying to show-off with some futile exclusive status of owning such expensive glass. The photographs taken at large apertures with the 1.4 are phenomenal, with the 1.8 are great, period.
Whether the improvement from the 1.8 to 1.4 lens is enough to justify the massive price difference, that is a very personal and individual view based on what is reasonably affordable for you. I don't think one should reduce the rating of this lens based on one's perception of price fairness.
Is it worth selling your 1.4D for the new 1.4G?
It is if like me, you use your 85mm wide open from f/1.4 to f/2 most of the time. The G version is clearly sharper wide open.
And the manual focus override of the G version is awesome as compared to the irritating auto to manual switch of the previous version.
Of course, you have to be very careful when shooting at f/1.4, as the slightest forward or backward movement will simply throw you out of focus.
The combination of my 85mm f/1.4G and D700 has a slight front-focussing problem that I can't perfectly sort with the camera's dedicated fine tune option. I learned to leave with it using the manual override of the focus ring.
