Meike 85mm F2.8 Macro Lens for Nikon Z: Price, Specifications, and Availability

The B&H store has begun accepting pre-orders for the Meike MK-85mm f/2.8 Macro Lens for Nikon Z mount. Somewhat earlier, a Canon RF mount variant of this lens became available. The release of the Meike 85mm F2.8 lens was announced in August, but then the manufacturer did not name the price.

The lens focuses manually and comes with a hood. According to the manufacturer, it is well suited not only for macro photography but also for portrait photography. The Nikon 85mm 2.8 from Meike features a distinct design for working with close-up subjects while also being a viable option for portraiture and other subjects.

A magnification ring can be used to achieve between a 1:1 and 1.5:1 magnification with a 9.8″ minimum focusing distance for macro shooting, and at the 1:1 position, infinity focus is available for working with distant subjects. Individual lens elements feature a multi-layer nano-coating to control surface reflections, flare, and ghosting in order to realize a high degree of contrast and color accuracy, even when working in bright and backlit conditions.
