Digital camera reviews of Nikon 85mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras

Digital camera Review: Great prime lens for portraits and indoor sports
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this to shoot some indoor basketball for a friend where flash isn't allowed. The 1.8 allowed me to shoot at 1/125 freezing all but the fastest action.

As mentioned by others, the bokeh is not exceptional, but it is adequate. The metal hood with screw threads makes it more time consuming to put on and off, but that's the only complaint I have against an otherwise great lens.
