Is this lens compatible with my digital Nikon camera?
The Nikon Ai-S Nikkor 135mm f/2 has an Ai-S mount, which is compatible with most Nikon digital SLR cameras (FX and DX) and film cameras. However, on some entry-level digital cameras (such as the D3000 and D5000 series), it may not have automatic light metering, so you will need to use manual mode. We recommend checking compatibility with your specific model.
Is it suitable for portrait photography?
Yes, it is excellent for portraits. The 135mm focal length and maximum aperture of f/2 allow good subject isolation with a very attractive background blur (bokeh). It is a highly valued option among portrait photographers.
What type of focus does it have?
It is a manual focus lens. It does not have autofocus, so you will need to adjust focus manually. This can be a challenge for some, but it also offers total creative control and is very precise when used carefully.
What does the Camera Market warranty include?
This used lens includes a Camera Market warranty that you can choose between 6, 12, or 24 months. This means that, in addition to having passed a technical inspection, you have the peace of mind that any functional issues will be covered during the chosen period.
