Patent Application

CreativeMayhem.com.au picked up on a Nikon Patent Application, full details can be seen at the source link below.

In one part of the document, the focal length is described as f=85mm.

Following on the success of the 35mm f1.8 DX, something like a 85mm f1.8 DX could be a very popular lens, making a great portrait lens for DX users.
