Review: Good value for money, but not for those people dedicated to 'point and shoot'. - I bought this lens mostly out of curiosity. I ti a completely manual lens so one has to experiment a little with exposures, which is not too much of a problem with the instantly viewable images that digital cameras provide. Shoot, look and adjust exposure settings if required. Focus is mechanism is firm and smooth, very pleasant to use. For me, it has produced sharp and pleasing images. For what it cost, I am delighted with this lens.
Review: It offer more than the price cost. - Focus wheel Functionality is smooth. At aperture 1.8 sharpness is as good as the price can be 6/10. Great!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why can't I press the shutter after mounting the lens?**
A: Switch to mode M, and then you can use our lens.

**Q: Why does my picture out of focus and very blurry?**
A: For manual lenses, you must turn the focus ring on the front of the lens to focus. If the photo is still blurry after focusing sharply, please adjust the exposure by ISO/aperture/shutter speed.

**Q: Why it show "F00"? and How to adjust the aperture value?**
A: Manual lenses do not have an electronic contact, "F00" is displayed because the camera is unable to acquire aperture information. For manual lenses, the aperture value can only be adjusted with the aperture ring on the lens.

**Q: How to do if the image turns out dark?**
A: If the image is too dark, increase the ISO (e.g. from 800 to 1600) to increase the sensitivity, and decrease the shutter speed (e.g. from 1/250s to 1/125s) to allow more light onto the sensor.

**Q: How to do if the image turns out bright?**
A: If the image is too bright, lower the ISO (e.g. from 200 to 100) to reduce the light sensitivity, and increase the shutter speed (e.g. from 1/125s to 1/250s) to reduce the exposure and avoid overexposure.

Focus wheel Functionality is smooth. At aperture 1.8 sharpness is as good as the price can be 6/10. Great!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ a good old preset lens
*by A***R on 17 May 2025*

I've always loved the 85mm focal length on a 35mm camera and have owned a few over the years. This one reminds me of my old T2 mount Vivitar pre-set 85mm f1.8 that I used to own (in operation and optics) but in size is much closer to the old Nikon 85mm f2 (apart from filter size). I guess its a copy of someone elses design from the 60s/'70s etc but who knows. Anyway, it is pleasingly sharp in the centre and has a lovely shallow depth of field, so all as expected for an 85mm. Thumbs up from me, especially at the price! I Bought Nikon F Mount, but use on a Sony A7R as already had adaptor and who knows, maybe one day I might use it on my Nikon SLR if I could ever afford the film. As everyone says, remember its purely manual, no auto focus, no electronics at all, so manual Iris ( its what we used to call pre-set - ie you pre-set the iris before taking the picture - the camera doesn't/cannot do it) Dropped one star because: -Box says Nikon AI which it isn't of course as its a purely manual iris with no iris coupling to the body (non AI, AI or AIs). -Box says filter size 72mm - which it isn't as that is the front of the lens hood size - filter ring on lens is 55mm -Lens itself is not built like a tank, First lens I've ever seen that has a "springy barrel that physically moves the focus ring if you push it. (however it has a pleasing weight and fits nicely in the hand when mounted on camera) -Lens has a very quirky aperture ring that shows "f stops" of 1.8, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4.5, 6, 10, 22. Makes no sense at all as they are not one stop differences and aren't the usual 2, 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22 that most lenses would have. Because its manual, this doesn't really matter too much, but bear in mind if you wanted to match the same settings as another lens that was using f5.6 or f8, then that wouldn't be easy.. (but TBH if you did need that level of professionalism you should really be using Cine lenses with T stops and not F stops anyway. -Lens shows some evidence of chromatic aberration in certain conditions eg black lines can go green/turquoise, if out of focus. (see attached image) None of the above would put me off this lens, especially at this price level. It's extremely good value, pleasing to use, quite characterful and just what you would expect from an 85mm on a full frame camera. On a 35mm film camera such as an SLR, I expect it would be frustrating as the viewfinder would go dark as you stop it down, and its probably not a good idea for those people who always use Autofocus, auto iris, stabilisation etc as it has none of them. But for someone who is used to doing everything manually (but doesn't have budget for branded lenses), or for someone who wants to learn and isn't afraid of experimenting, then this is a bargain and definitely not three bad.
