Bernard, did you mean the 50mm f/1.2 or do you believe there will be an 85mm f/1.2 any time soon?
A rumored roadmap was leaked a few weeks ago with a 85mm f1.2 on it.
That makes total sense since Nikon is apparently going for at least a 2 line up primes strategy here:
- f1.8 S - uncompromised quality but lightweight
- f1.2 S - uncompromised
Besides, Canon has one...
Btw, my guess is that they will add a third non S lineup of very compact pancake lenses that will not be up to S standard of quality, but this is just a guess.
Now, the 85mm f1.8 S is really incredibly good. I have a hard time thinking about any high end portrait application that wouldn’t be served optimally by this lens. I makes me have second thoughts about my GFX100 and 110mm f2.0... since I like the Nikon a little better overall. The compact and lightweights combo with the Z7 is really liberating for casual portrait work, and the results are mind blowingly good.
Cheers,
Bernard
