Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

China is proudly written on the lens, but it works perfectly. And now about the features. 105mm is a versatile macro lens. With such a focal length, it can be used as a portrait lens. And now about the features of the lens. due to its 105 mm, it can cause some degree of inconvenience. For example, letโ€™s say you want to take a picture of a beautifully decorated meal. I mean not a staged photo, but so, from the fly. And in order for your beautifully-decorated cake to enter the frame, you willโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sharp, pleasant bokeh, stabilizer, protected.
Cons
  • It is a versatile macro lens. When shooting insects, this was revealed as a disadvantage.

Good quality product, the price is commensurate with the quality.

For whom mythical technical parameters are important, as someone wrote here, then pay attention to other lenses. Who is afraid of the price - too. But in fact, if you take it not for fun, but with a serious intention to get a consistently excellent result, and if you use all its properties at 100%, then the 105th will not disappoint. On the crop, by the way, it also gives a beautiful picture, but of course you can feel all the charm in full frame. By the adequacy of the price, I put 4/5 - youโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Universal lens. Both macro and portraiture rolled into one. Many people will like it. Convenient design. Switching focus from automatic to manual is instantaneous, in addition, there is a corresponding switch on the body - this is the heritage of the ultrasonic motor. Again, the motor allows you to quickly and tenaciously focus. The number of misses is minimal. Sometimes the vibration suppression system helps out. When shooting slowly, it is better to turn it off, but when shooting a reportage, it helps a lot. Technical bells and whistles and a sturdy body make the lens versatile, but what really deserves respect for it is the drawing. In addition to being sharp, clear, it also has a wonderful blur. A very beautiful drawing. After 70-200 f / 2.8, the quality of the 105th is visible, although the Nikon 70-200 f / 2.8 is almost the standard for reportage zoom.
Cons
  • Disadvantages, disadvantages . Yes, they are. In reality, the aperture is not f / 2.8, but "changes" depending on the focusing distance. This is somewhat annoying, although, I understand that this is nonsense and nit-picking. =) Maybe even the price. But believe me, if you shoot portraits or macro, it's hard to find a better tool. It is customary to pay for quality.

One of the best offers, glad I bought it.

Many people write very strange things in reviews. They donโ€™t buy a cheap thing, but they donโ€™t study the characteristics. Let me clarify: The focal length on paper is fixed at 105 mm. In practice, we get 105 mm only when focusing on infinity. At the same time, apertures from 2.8 to 32 are available. With a decrease in focusing distance other than infinity, a feature of this glass appears - focus breathing, which is a feature for a macro lens. With a minimum focusing distance, we get a viewingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • focus breathing, ease of use.
