📷 Nikon AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Close-up Lens: Perfect for Nikon DSLR Cameras Review

After the whale, the first lens I bought, I use it for the second day, I am very pleased, especially with the sharpness, which is what macro lenses are famous for. ! I recommend.

He has his own mission in this world; ) Here is a photo from this lens: Has pros: Excellent sharpness starting at 2.8 (for a portrait, that's it) I also want to note the pleasant bokeh Cons below: But he doesn’t need speed, but when he runs through the focal length, grass and leaves in porridge, about the hood, I want to throw it away right away, because it barely holds on and hangs out, and it rarely catches hares.

it’s not easy to sneak up on insects, but I did it 80%D0%BE/ ) and girls at exhibitions page=0 and other 836369/? page=0 Yes, with a fix you have to jump in search of a suitable distance to the subject, I recommend!

the colors are pleasant, As for nature and buildings, of course, houses quite close will not completely fit into the frame, it is also not bad and may well compete with the macro mode, if, for example, I am very satisfied with the lens and I advise it to everyone, especially those who love and know how to shoot macro! Here are various photos from the Nikon D5200 and Nikon 40mm f / 2.8G AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR:

IMPORTANT: when shooting a long shot (not macro) A tiny daisy in a field, an ant on a blade of grass, a stamen inside a flower, an eyelash on the eye - all these are ideal objects for shooting with a Nikon 40 mm lens, close-up photos of faces are amazing! The color reproduction is excellent, the colors are very bright, The dream of the perfect macro lens has come true!

Has some pros I really liked the lens: fast enough autofocus, reasonable price, light weight, workmanship and a great picture. Cons below: The lens hood gets in the way a little when it sits on the lens with the back side. Perhaps everything.

Some pros: In general, everything is as expected: a good macro lens, the photos are juicy (both macro and portraits), with a nice blur. Cons: It's not entirely clear what "semi-automatic scaling" means.

To say: sharp, not to say anything (having seen the first pictures, he registered him as a staff member for a long time). Good design (strong plastic, solid assembly), despite the Chinese assembly. A very useful focus limit selector (focuses quickly and accurately). With an open hole, the depth of field is really small, but for people with a head this is not a problem, but an additional opportunity for creativity (you don’t consider a grenade bad if it didn’t explode in the hands of a monkey…

They write that macro 40mm is between 35 and 50. No, don't believe it, they are mistaken. I have read about 35mm and will not write. 40mm can be photographed from insects to not bad portraits. I have a daughter of 10 months and it is a pleasure to take pictures of the forties. Each lash is clearly visible. The whole face is very beautiful. Handles moving objects very well compared to 50mm 1.8. It's a pleasure for an apartment.

I changed 35 / 1.8 for this one, I'm quite satisfied. A little narrower, a little slower, but a little more interesting bokeh and much easier to shoot a subject and macro. I use it as a regular one, it is almost as good as 35 / 1.8 in this, and as a portrait one it’s even more interesting. I threw all macro-Frankensteins from inverted helios and other industries on the shelf, most likely forever.

The lens does its job very well. You can immediately forget about the hood that comes with the kit, because at a long distance the front lens is thoroughly recessed into the body, and at a small distance the hood will only interfere, shading the subject. The manual focus mechanism leaves an ambivalent feeling. On the one hand - a large stroke (almost 180 degrees), on the other - tactile sensations are not very pleasant. The ring is tight but feels very different from the old metal nikkors. The…

I don't write a review right away. Of all the macro lenses, the most affordable! On the plus side, it has a built-in autofocus motor! For without "screwdriver" cameras, a dream! I photograph winter with this lens wherever possible. But he does well not only with macro. The portraits are exceptional with good bokeh, the subject comes out great. It’s worth it on the Nikon D5200 as a staff member, I sometimes set whale 18-140 only when I shoot a holiday, a family celebration (Birthday, New Year…

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…
