Nikon 85mm f/1.4 D IF
Taken during one of Tom Hicks Pug Mark Park tiger shoots.
A Nikon legend, the 85/1.4 is exceptionally sharp with some of the smoothest bokeh you will find.
Opinion: While unsuitable for a low-light/sports combination, this is one of Nikon's finest portrait lenses and a must for any wedding or studio photographer.
Example: Nikon D2X : @85mm : 1/320th : f1.4 : 100 ISO : Matrix metering  | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

NIce pictures! I'm waiting for mine to arrive.
Thanks for bringing the tiger park to mind. I was going to try
to shoot there about 2 years ago but something can up and
it just slipped my mind. | | | |

This is without a doubt the finest glass I've ever owned. It still amazes me when I see my shots made with this lens on a 26 in monitor. It's the best money I've ever spent on equipment.

Seen that shot before, Scott, and I still love it. Really shows how this lens can shine.
