Review on ๐Ÿ“ท Nikon AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Close-up Lens: Perfect for Nikon DSLR Cameras by Nguyen Kim Chi แ Œ

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm completely satisfied with the product, it works.

I used it for about six months and it was with this lens that I made my best shots so far. The lens is very good in terms of colors and contrast, but over time, faster optics became lacking, and the macro mode is only suitable for photographing static objects + I wanted a slightly wider angle. In general, it was decided to sell it and buy Nikon 35mm f1.8. But later I regretted the transition, since 35mm 1.8 loses significantly in image quality. Therefore, if you choose aperture, then I advise you to look towards the sigma art series.

Pros
  • 1. Image quality and sharpness 2. Colors are pleasing to the eye 3. There is the possibility of macro photography 4. The front lens is set deep - with all the desire not to damage) 5. Lightweight
Cons
  • 1. Very uncomfortable focal length for macro (you have to bring it very close to the subject) 2. Relatively dark (aperture from 2.8) 3. You can not use filters, as the front of the lens moves out when focusing (I could be wrong).

Has some pros Sharpness, I did not expect it to be so strong . Cons: When shooting video, the sharpening motor makes noise .

He showed himself well as a "portrait", while shooting "in growth" also showed good results. Optimal "fix" for studio work
