    • Everything you want in a macro lens
This lens is extremely sharp. At f2.8 it currently has the highest DxO Mark rating of any tested lens on any camera body. Autofocus is surprisingly fast and effective for a macro lens, even at 1:1 magnification. Other macro lenses that I have used required manual focus at high levels of magnification, but I can shoot faster and more accurately with this lens using autofocus. So instead of taking 100 manually-focused shots while swaying back-and-forth in hopes of getting one in-focus picture, I can take a handful of braced auto-focused shots and be sure to end up with some good in-focus pictures. VR is also effective at close distances, which allows me to shoot close-up at lower shutter speeds (and lower ISOs). Another strength of this lens is its balance between working distance and depth-of-field. This lens provides 1:1 magnification at its minimum focus distance of 12 inches. 12 inches is a sufficient working distance to use a ring flash or the Nikon R1C1 wireless close-up speedlight system. It's also sufficient distance to bounce a regular speedlight onto your tiny subject in a pinch, either on-camera or off-camera. This lens also has an impressive f32 minimum aperture, which helps mitigate the shallow depth-of-field at the minimum focus distance. At f32, this lens provides a 0.42 inch DOF at its minimum focus distance of 12 inches. (BTW, you'll need some good lighting to work at f32 and diffraction limits sharpness.) By comparison, the Sigma 150mm f2.8 macro has an f22 minimum aperture, which only provides a 0.21 inch DOF at its minimum focus distance of 15 inches. The Tamron 180mm f3.5 macro also has an f32 minimum aperture, but only provides a 0.32 inch DOF at its minimum focus distance of 18.5 inches. The Nikon 60mm f2.8 macro achieves 1:1 magnification with a 0.49in DOF, but it's not as sharp and its minimum focus distance of 7.3 inches is too close for my taste. So among all F-mount macro lenses, this Nikon macro lens strikes the best balance between a viable minimum focus distance and a relatively large depth-of-field at that distance. You can also use this lens for portraits, although other lenses like the Nikon 135mm DC, Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VRII, and Nikon 200mm f2.0 VR will be better for that. If you want to take tripod-mounted studio close-ups at 1:2 magnification or less, then I'd recommend a tilt-shift lens like the Nikon 85mm f2.8 PC-E instead because you can work around the narrow DOF by reorienting the focal plane. ... show more

    • Great for Macro and Portrait Work
Typical Nikon level pro glass- high quality glass, great dispersion elements, great build, dead on AF, incredible images when used correctly. Arguably a little heavy. However, pro's are used to the weight. Weight, in my opinion, is commensurate with quality glass. Understand this is a single focal length 2.8. Most non-pro's are used to zoom lenses and will not likely want to trade the convenience of a zoom for the pro level quality, at single focal length, this lens offers. For consumerists, the application is somewhat limited. But, even if you are a consumer level shooter just coming off a kit lens, and are moving into serious portrait work, this lens will deliver. But even with such pro glass at 2.8, lighting is critical to any portrait work. So, don't think for a moment this lens eliminates your need for quality light. Many other reviewers hit the technical component of the review. So, I tend to review from a pragmatic end-user perspective. This lens will shoot your daughter's recital in a gym well enough, if you get close enough and properly white balance. In a controlled setting, this is a lens you will want to take portraits of your children and wife/husband; just be sure (if indoors) you can get back far enough. If you shoot outdoors, you will want fill flash (yes, even with this, or any lens). For outdoor night time sports under good lighting, this lens is a killer- just maybe not enough reach. For outdoor daytime sports, and at a much better price point, definitely go with the Nikon 70-300 f4.5 Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED IF AF-S VR Nikkor Zoom Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras, which is more than sufficient to stop kids sports in action at great reach (450mm on a dx body). This lens also delivers great contrast and color replication- if you are using a color managed workflow (if not, you probably would not be looking at this lens anyway). Just remember that most people are viewing images only on some type of monitor these days (screen, Iphone, Ipdad, etc..). These screens/monitors are normally very cheap, not color matched, and using browser that only deal in the SRGB color space, thereby making all your effort nearly wasted. This is why prints, the true test of quality, still matter. And, if you are printing, this lens will definitely pay off. If you have the money and the need, you will not be disappointed with this Nikon glass. In fact, I have never been disappointed with any pro-level Nikon glass. Even their DX line is great for consumer to intermediate level shooting. ... show more

The lens arrived on time, moderately well packaged, and in perfect condition. For it's size I was surprised how heavy it is, but it feels very well built so it's not a deal-breaker. I decided to test it out on one of my cats who was very excited I got a new lens and happily posed for me. I didn't use a tripod or any additional lights. Almost every shot was sharp. The auto-focus wasn't the fastest, but it was very accurate. Went out into the garden to test it out further and found it to be very easy to use. Found out it also works well as a portrait lens even though it's a little heavy to be used in hand. Honestly, if you're looking to buy a macro (micro) lens, you don't need to spend a ton of money. This one will be sufficient until you're willing to give up the big bucks for a higher end one. ... show more
