Nikon PC-E Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D Overview

Well-suited for product and tabletop photography, the PC-E Micro-NIKKOR 85mm f/2.8D from Nikon is a specialized short-telephoto prime offering tilt and shift movements for controlling your focus and perspective. Up to +/- 8.5° of tilt is possible, for focus control; +/- 11.5mm of shift, to adjust perspective and composition; and +/- 90° of rotation is also possible for adjusting the axis of these movements. Further benefitted by the movements, this lens is also a micro optic and provides a 1:2 maximum magnification ratio along with a 1.3' minimum focusing distance for working with close-up subjects.

In addition to the handling and mechanics, this lens also uses Close Range Correction to ensure consistent image quality throughout the focusing range. Additionally, both Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings have been applied to reduce flare and ghosting for improved contrast in strong lighting conditions.

Perspective control, tilt-shift lens affords +/- 11.5mm of shift and +/- 8.5° of tilt, and both types of movements can be applied independently of one another. Additionally, 90° rotation is possible left and right, with stops at 30° intervals.
Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings have been applied to lens elements to minimize surface and internal reflections for a marked reduction in lens flare and ghosting.
Close Range Correction system helps to maintain consistent image quality throughout the entire focusing range, from the minimum focusing distance of 1.3' to infinity. Additionally, the maximum magnification of 1:2 is ideal for photographing close-up subjects.
