Review on πŸ“· Nikon 105mm f/2.8D AF Micro-Nikkor Lens: Perfect for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras by Aneta Olszewska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

If you had told me that shooting at f/2.8 produces mega blur and "expensive" bokeh (measured in terms such as fifty dollars or helios), I would have thought you were crazy. A sturdy, high-quality, razor-sharp, and surprisingly agile lens. As a portrait photographer, it's very, very early in my career, so I haven't had an opportunity to create a mark just yet. Truth becomes a telephoto on a crop matrix, but the resulting images are unparalleled if you have access to both. Not a lens, but a wonderful surprise nonetheless.

Pros
  • An exquisitely precise and very lightweight construction (albeit China). Great picture and macro glass.
Cons
  • Although it's very hefty, that's not really a problem. The autofocus can be stupid at times, but you quickly get used to it. If the autofocus ever wanders off, you can simply adjust the knobs in m/a mode. (Thus, this is not a drawback but rather a subtlety.)
