Super Sharp Macro Lens
This is the latest model for 60mm f2.8 macro lens from Nikon. This new model focuses much faster with AF-S. It is already very sharp wide open all the way to f16. In addition, the lens also yields very sharp image for shooting a distant object, a big improvement from the older model.
Pros:
- Very sharp from f2.8 to f16
- fast and quiet focus
Cons:
- None

Superbra makro
Visst kostar det en slant, men man får mycket för pengarna. Heller betalar jag extra och blir så här supernöjd än köper ett objektiv som är sämre. Objektivet är rätt stort och ganska tungt, men det ska det vara, det känns äkta, mer rejält än ett lätt och litet objektiv. Rekommenderas varmt!
Pros:
- Älskar objektivet, mycket bra makro men det går naturligtvis jättebra att fota t ex porträtt också
- Det är ljusstarkt och ger väldigt skarpa bilder, vilket är a och ö för mig.
Cons:
- Tycker inte det finns nåt negativt vid detta objektiv

Headline is Perfect!
Use micro for shots of jewelry and other small items; both for sale and personal use. Use the 35mm as a standard lens...great as a standard lens. Use others for outdoor use... scenery, group shots, etc. All are wonderful products and work perfectly...
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Strong Construction

Outstanding Lens!
I love this lens-it is my favorite, thus far!!! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a wonderful macro or micro lens, and it is also wonderful for portraits. However, do not be fooled by the "VR" that Best Buy has added to the description...it's not there.
Pros:
- Crystal clear images
- outstanding close-ups
- beautiful bokeh
Cons:
- No VR as Best Buy has stated in their description

I actually walked into my local camera store with every intention of getting the newer Micro 85mm 3.5 VR, but actually had to prove to the staff that it even existed, so needless to say, I didn't even get to touch it. Must have been Gods will.
Pros:
- - Tack sharp at all apertures
- - AF override compared to other brands
- - quick
- silent
- internal focusing
- - accurate colors
- - Nano coating...apparently that's good
- - includes hood
- - minimal focus distance at around 2" away
- - 9 blades for great backgrounds
- - Nice solid build
- no shaking parts
Cons:
- - Pricey
- I did also pay the premium of getting it in store rather then getting if from Adorama
- Gotta support the local stores once in a while, - Heavy...unless you like it that way like I do, - Some may scoff at the lack of a limit switch, - 60mm means getting real close to your subject.

What a thrill!
This lens was recommended for delicate, close-up work and it is great. I have begun to get the feel of the additional weight in my hand. I haven't been able to get outside yet because of the snow to take some close-up shots and can't wait.

Meets my hoes and expectations
like one of the previous reviewers i have been using the 105mm micro for some time and love it! but sometimes it's not enough to move the camera back to fit everything into frame (something made easier for me by using the manfrotto macro focusing rail) with the slightly longer lens and i finally...
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Lightweight
- Sharp Focus

Awesome lens!
This lens is super sharp and lightweight. I typically use it for macro photography but is also a great portrait lens. I've had great results when paired with my SB-700 for close up shots of bugs and flowers. You can't go wrong with this lens.
